// MakeFunc returns a new function of the given Type
// that wraps the function fn. When called, that new function
// does the following:
//
//	- converts its arguments to a list of Values args.
//	- runs results := fn(args).
//	- returns the results as a slice of Values, one per formal result.
//
// The implementation fn can assume that the argument Value slice
// has the number and type of arguments given by typ.
// If typ describes a variadic function, the final Value is itself
// a slice representing the variadic arguments, as in the
// body of a variadic function. The result Value slice returned by fn
// must have the number and type of results given by typ.
//
// The Value.Call method allows the caller to invoke a typed function
// in terms of Values; in contrast, MakeFunc allows the caller to implement
// a typed function in terms of Values.
//
// The Examples section of the documentation includes an illustration
// of how to use MakeFunc to build a swap function for different types.
