Fix passing a Code type object to native call

This should result in a NULL being passed, however this untested functionality was broken while updating NativeCall as part of the new dispatcher changes. Fix it by adding a missing concreteness check. The test case is thanks to jonathanstowe++. Resolves #4548.		 10:31
rakudo/new-disp-nativecall: cb1cddd4b2 | (Stefan Seifert)++ | src/vm/moar/dispatchers.nqp
Add a hook for custom dispatchers on callables

This lets callable objects have a say in which dispatcher is used when they are invoked.		 10:44

API for asking whether the compiler supports a certain nqp op

This can be used to conditionally compile backend specific code in modules like NativeCall

Fix NativeCall performance regression on new-disp

The trick of replacing the native routine's $!do attribute has never worked perfectly as closure cloning could lead to the generic code getting executed. For unknown reason that got a lot worse on new-disp.
Get around that by replacing the fragile $!do replacement with a ... (7 more lines)

Xliff Anyone thought about support for "..." in NativeCall? 11:59
Would basically take the ... and have to compile the various arities seen in code and cache those definitions. 12:00
take: "sub varargs (int, int, int ...) is native (mylib) { * }" 12:01
nine Xliff: I'm currntly working on turning the NativeCall internals into proper dispatch programs. Vararg support may be easier then
Xliff nine: OK. Then I will hold off until then. 12:02
