feat(lua): allow vim.F.if_nil to take multiple arguments (#22903)

The first argument which is non-nil is returned. This is useful when
using nested default values (e.g. in the EditorConfig plugin).

Before:

  local enable = vim.F.if_nil(vim.b.editorconfig, vim.F.if_nil(vim.g.editorconfig, true))

After:

  local enable = vim.F.if_nil(vim.b.editorconfig, vim.g.editorconfig, true)
