Problem: instanceof() should use varargs as second arg
Solution: Modify `instanceof()` to use varargs instead of list
Modify `instanceof()` to use varargs instead of list
Valid `instanceof()` arguments are `type`s. A `type` is not a value;
it cannot be added to a list.
This change is non-compatible with the current usage of instanceof;
but instanceof is relatively new and it's a trivial change.

Problem: Vim9: No support for type aliases
Solution: Implement :type command
A type definition is giving a name to a type specification. This also known
type alias.
:type ListOfStrings = list<string>
The type alias can be used wherever a built-in type can be used. The type
alias name must start with an upper case character.

Problem: trim(): hard to use default mask (partly revert v9.0.2040)
Solution: use default mask when it is empty
The default 'mask' value is pretty complex, as it includes many
characters. Yet, if one needs to specify the trimming direction, the
third argument, 'trim()' currently requires the 'mask' value to be
provided explicitly.
Currently, an empty 'mask' will make 'trim()' call return 'text' value
that is passed in unmodified. It is unlikely that someone is using it,
so the chances of scripts being broken by this change are low.
Also, this reverts commit 9.0.2040 (which uses v:none for the default
and requires to use an empty string instead).

'v:none' is already used to mean "use the default argument value" in
user defined functions. See |none-function_argument| in help.

Problem: Vim9 missing access-checks for private vars
Solution: Use the proper check for private/readonly variable. Access
level for a member cannot be changed in a class implementing an
interface. Update the code indentation

Problem: Vim9: need instanceof() function
Solution: Implement instanceof() builtin
Implemented in the same form as Python's isinstance because it allows
for checking multiple class types at the same time.

Problem: Wrong argument for append() gives two error messages.
Solution: When getting an error for a number argument don't try using it as
a string. (closes#11335)
Problem: String interpolation only works in heredoc.
Solution: Support interpolated strings. Use syntax for heredoc consistent
with strings, similar to C#. (closes#10327)
Problem: Vim9: cannot initialize a variable to null_list.
Solution: Give negative count to NEWLIST. (closes#10027)
Also fix inconsistencies in comparing with null values.
Problem: Failing test for comparing v:null with number.
Solution: Allow comparing v:null with number in legacy script.
(Ken Takata, closes#9873) Also do this for float.
