Problem: All builtin functions are global.
Solution: Add the method call operator ->. Implemented for a limited number
of functions.

- Note that to *exactly* port hunk @@ -7376,18 +7444,19 from
handle_subscript(), we need the :scriptversion patches (I have an open
PR for those, but this patch works fine without them anyway).
- Port call_internal_func() from v7.4.2058.
- Adjust some error messages in tests, as they rely on the Blob patches.
- Add a modeline to test_method.vim.
Ignore the global_functions and base_method tables and prefer the
current GPerf implementation. Instead, add an extra base_arg field to
VimLFuncDef that holds the number of the argument to use as the base
(1-indexed, so that 0 may be used to refer to functions that cannot be
used as methods).
This also means we support using any argument as a base from the get-go,
rather than just the first (Vim includes this ability in future patches,
however).
To mark a function as usable as a method, use the "base" key as
described in eval.lua.
Problem: Function call functions have too many arguments.
Solution: Pass values in a funcexe_T struct.

Use FUNCEXE_INIT to initialize funcexe_T instances.
call_callback() and other Vim listener related stuff is N/A.
