base: Make the Value stat's functor method accept lambdas.

This class can already accept a proxy variable and a "functor" which is
a pointer to either a function or an instance of a class with the ()
operator overloaded.

This change adds a FunctorProxy partial specialization which accepts
anything that can be used to construct a std::function<Result()>. The
constructor argument is copied and stored in the proxy which makes it
possible to define a lambda inline without having to keep a copy of it
around for the proxy to point to.

Also, the ValueBase stat's functor method now has a second version which
accepts a const reference rather than just a reference to its argument.
We need both because when accepting a reference to a lambda it needs to
be a const reference, but when accepting a pointer to a functor object,
we don't want it to be const because that would force the () operator to
also be const.
