Message:

Pass owl_variable * around instead of owl_vardict *.

This allows (forces) functions to do their own NULL- and type- checking
on variables.  The functions in varsubs.c get less checking, but if
these auto-generated functions are failing, something more serious is
probably wrong.

The owl_variable_get_* functions type-check their arguments, and
owl_function_error if the argument is the wrong type (it's a programmer
error and we should make some noise).
