Sorry for the delay.  The patch is now safe to apply.  The feature is
set to not activate until SLIME 2.28 which is likely months into the
future.  The reason for this is, I got a blessing from one of SLIME
developers but they've not responded to my PR since; I also need to test
with SLY.  Delaying activation until SLIME 2.28 looks safe enough.

There are some idiosyncrasies: I require elisp features cl-macs, cl-seq,
subr-x in the middle of ob-lispe.el, right before they are needed.  This
is mostly due to state of the patch still being uncertain.  I also
define a variable for a newline emitted by Lisp because I'm always
cautious of non-standard newlines on some platforms.  This might be
totally unnecessary.

Note also that I update the documentation in addition to ob- files.
This comes in a separate patch since the feature mentioned is not really
available yet.
