patch 8.0.0475: not enough testing for the client-server feature

commit https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/7416f3e73ab2c4e7ae3adc2ff6e70234f7d40d2e

    patch 8.0.0475: not enough testing for the client-server feature

    Problem:    Not enough testing for the client-server feature.
    Solution:   Add more tests.  Add the remote_startserver() function.  Fix that
                a locally evaluated expression uses function-local variables.
