patch 9.0.0632: calling a function from an "expr" option has overhead

    patch 9.0.0632: calling a function from an "expr" option has overhead

    Problem:    Calling a function from an "expr" option has too much overhead.
    Solution:   Add call_simple_func() and use it for 'foldexpr'

+The most efficient is to call a compiled function without arguments: >

+The function must use v:lnum.  See |expr-option-function|.

 These are the conditions with which the expression is evaluated:
 - The current buffer and window are set for the line.
 - The variable "v:lnum" is set to the line number.

+Calling a function in an expr option ~
+							*expr-option-function*
+A few options, such as 'foldexpr', are an expresison that is evaluated to get
+a value.  The evaluation can have quite a bit of overhead.  One way to
+minimize the overhead, and also to keep the option value very simple, is to
+defined a compiled function and set the option to call it without arguments.
+Example: >
+	vim9script
+	def MyFoldFunc(): any
+	   ... compute fold level for line v:lnum
+	   return level
+	enddef
+	set foldexpr=s:MyFoldFunc()
