Depending on the type of argument for input()/inputdialog()'s {text}
argument, defstr may point to buf. Therefore it needs to be in scope
for the lifetime of defstr.
Also, use a different buffer for the handling of the 3rd argument to
input()/inputdialog(). Although the buffer defstr points to is used
immediately, it avoids potential mishaps if the code changes.
Looks like dict_notifications_spec test used to depend on some state which
should not be preserved. Changed all `setup()` calls to `before_each()` and
added necessary state in addition to changes required to test empty keys.
Note: unit tests for tv_dict_watcher* are still needed.
Additional modifications:
- More `const` qualifiers in tested functions.
- `tv_list_find_str()` second argument is more in-line with other
`tv_list_find*()` functions.
Also found some bugs:
1. var_item_copy() always fails to copy v:_null_list and v:_null_dict. Fixing
this should mean fixing `deepcopy(v:_null_list)` which should’ve been, but
was not listed in #4615. This also fixes `deepcopy(v:_null_dict)`.
2. var_item_copy() crashes when trying to copy NULL string with `conv != NULL`.
3. `conv` argument is ignored when copying list unless `deep` is true, but it
was not reflected in documentation.
4. `tv_dict_item_alloc_len()` allocated more memory then needed.
5. typvalt2lua was not able to handle self-referencing containers.
Should fix test failures on QB:

Additionally
- Rename former tv_get_float to tv_get_float_chk due to name conflict (former
get_tv_float is better suited for being tv_get_float).
- Add E907 error to get_tv_float() and test that it is being raised when
appropriate.
Assuming `inline` is there for a reason, so it is kept and function was moved to
typval.h and not to typval.c which does not have problems with #including
message.h.
Reasoning; currently INTERNAL_CALL is mostly used to determine whether it is
needed to deal with NL-used-as-NUL problem. This code is useful for nvim_… API
calls done from VimL, but not for API calls done from lua, yet lua needs to
supply something as channel_id.
No tests yet, no documentation update, no :lua* stuff, no vim module.
converter.c should also work with typval_T, not Object.
Known problem: luaeval("1", {}) results in
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (attempt to index a nil value)
