Can be reproduced with a script like this:
-- in some lua file
vim.fn.timer_start(10, function() error("uh....") end)
-- will cause neovim to crash with the following error.
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API
(nlua_CFunction_func_call failed.)
After this, it will instead print the error message
from the top of the stack, like so.
tmp/error_nvim.lua:10: uh...
Also added an example test. Previously this test
caused the embedded nvim to panic.
vim-patch:8.2.1054: not so easy to pass a lua function to Vim
vim-patch:8.2.1084: Lua: registering function has useless code
I think I have also opened up the possibility for people to use these
callbacks elsewhere, since I've added a new struct that we should be
able to use.
Also, this should allow us to determine what the state of a list is in
Lua or a dictionary in Lua, since we now can track the luaref as we go.

Sometimes treesitter calls for an invalid column within a line, checking
that the column is actually valid and forcing the value avoids an
integer overflow and an infinite sequence of invalid reads.
Fixes#12131
- We already find ourselves renaming nvim_execute_lua in tests and
scripts, which suggests "exec" is the verb we actually want.
- Add "exec" verb to `:help dev-api`.
- Add vim variable meta accessors: vim.env, vim.{g,v,w,bo,wo}
- Redo gen_char_blob to generate multiple blobs instead of just one
so that multiple Lua modules can be inlined.
- Reorder vim.lua inclusion so that it can use previously defined C
functions and utility functions like vim.shared and vim.inspect things.
- Inline shared.lua into nvim, but also keep it available in runtime.
Mainly configuration and RPC infrastructure can be considered "done". Specific requests and their callbacks will be improved later (and also served by plugins). There are also some TODO:s for the client itself, like incremental updates.

compared to vim.api.|nvim_call_function|, this fixes some typing issues
due to the indirect conversion via the API. float values are preserved
as such (fixes#9389) as well as empty dicts/arrays.
