/// a Rust callback will accept any number of arguments from Lua and convert them to the type `T`
/// using [`FromLua`]. `Variadic<T>` can also be returned from a callback, returning a variable
/// number of values to Lua.
///
/// The [`MultiValue`] type is equivalent to `Variadic<Value>`.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// # use mlua::{Lua, Result, Variadic};
/// # fn main() -> Result<()> {
/// # let lua = Lua::new();
/// let add = lua.create_function(|_, vals: Variadic<f64>| -> Result<f64> {
///     Ok(vals.iter().sum())
/// })?;
/// lua.globals().set("add", add)?;
/// assert_eq!(lua.load("add(3, 2, 5)").eval::<f32>()?, 10.0);
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
