Provide a simple API for testing features enabled
Inspired by discussion in #p5p. This calls caller() itself rather than taking hints and hints_hash parameters so if we end up adding an extra hints word callers won't need to adjust their code.

+=head1 CHECKING FEATURES
+
+C<feature> provides some simple APIs to check which features are enabled.
+
+These functions cannot be imported and must be called by their fully
+qualified names. If you don't otherwise need to set a feature you will
+need to ensure C<feature> is loaded with:
+
+ use feature ();
+
+=over
+
+=item feature_enabled($feature)
+
+=item feature_enabled($feature, $depth)
+
+ package MyStandardEnforcer;
+ use feature ();
+ use Carp "croak";
+ sub import {
+ croak "disable indirect!" if feature::feature_enabled("indirect");
+ }
+
+Test whether a named feature is enabled at a given level in the call
+stack, returning a true value if it is. C<$depth> defaults to 1,
+which checks the scope that called the scope calling
+feature::feature_enabled().
+
+croaks for an unknown feature name.
+
+=item features_enabled()
+
+=item features_enabled($depth)
+
+ package ReportEnabledFeatures;
+ use feature "say";
+ sub import {
+ say STDERR join " ", feature::features_enabled();
+ }
+
+Returns a list of the features enabled at a given level in the call
+stack. C<$depth> defaults to 1, which checks the scope that called
+the scope calling feature::features_enabled().
+
+=item feature_bundle()
+
+=item feature_bundle($depth)
+
+Returns the feature bundle, if any, selected at a given level in the
+call stack. C<$depth> defaults to 1, which checks the scope that called
+the scope calling feature::feature_bundle().
+
+Returns an undefined value if no feature bundle is selected in the
+scope.
+
+The bundle name returned will be for the earliest bundle matching the
+selected bundle, so:
+
+ use feature ();
+ use v5.12;
+ BEGIN { print feature::feature_bundle(0); }
+
+will print C<5.11>.
+
+This returns internal state, at this point C<use v5.12;> sets the
+feature bundle, but C< use feature ":5.12"; > does not set the feature
+bundle. This may change in a future release of perl.
