The `proto()` function retrievs or sets the prototype of the given object
or resource value.

Throws an exception if given value does not support setting prototypes.

When invoked with one argument, returns the prototype of the given value
(if any).

When invoked with two arguments, returns the given value.

-- Testcase --
{%
	let fs = require("fs");

	// create a "class instance" by attaching a function dictionary to
	// a plain object.
	let obj = proto({}, {
		greeting: function(name) {
			printf("Hello, %s!\n", name);
		}
	});

	// accessing a property on `obj` will look up the prototype chain
	// if the object itself does not have it
	obj.greeting("World");

	printf("%.J\n", [
		// retrieve prototype of `fs.file` resource
		proto(fs.stdout),

		// retrieve prototype of `obj`
		proto(obj)
	]);
%}
-- End --

-- Expect stdout --
Hello, World!

Passing an invalid value throws an exception.
