Constructs a Function object.
ptr
is a referenced function, of a Fiddle::Handle
args
is an Array of arguments, passed to the ptr
function
ret_type
is the return type of the function
abi
is the ABI of the function

Calls the constructed Function, with
args
. Caller must ensure the underlying function is called in
a thread-safe manner if running in a multi-threaded process.
