Allow functions and commands to redefine themselves

8.1.0515, 8.1.0573 (Dec 8)

Previously a ! always had to be added to function to overwrite a function with the same name. Now Vim is smarter and allows a function to overwrite itself. This means that using function! in your vimrc or plugin's autoload is almost never required any more.
