patch 9.2.0571: Vim9: memory leak in compile_nested_function() on failure
Problem: compile_nested_function() calls define_function(), which registers
the new ufunc in func_hashtab with uf_refcount == 1. For a local
nested function the caller then reserves a local lvalue and
generates a FUNCREF instruction; if either step fails, the code
jumps to the theend label and leaves the ufunc behind with
refcount 1 and no external reference, leaking it. This mirrors
patch 8.2.3951, which fixed the same leak for the "text after
:enddef" branch a few lines above.
Solution: Call func_ptr_unref() on the ufunc before "goto theend" on both
failure paths in the local-variable branch (thinca).
closes: #20394
