ci: Check and confirm Vim feature flags exist before testing
Vim tests for features such as python3 relies on checking the feature
flag exists by doing `has('python3')`. However, if the feature itself is
broken and the flag returns 0, the relevant tests will simply silently
get ignored and CI will passed erroneously. As a preventive measure, as
basic checks to make sure certain feature flags are correct as a basic
smoke test.
Currently only checking two types of feature flags:
1. Features that depend on system packages being installed properly
(e.g. sodium) and could be erroneously dropped if the CI environment
changed or a bug exists in the configure script.
2. Scripting languages. When in dynamic mode, these feature flags (e.g.
"ruby", "python3") will return 0 when the lib cannot be found or the
code has an initialization bug. This happened in #16964 where CI
still passed despite Python 3 being broken.
closes: #16998
