      Modules: Add remaining list API functions (#8439) · ea36d4de
      Viktor Söderqvist authored
      List functions operating on elements by index:
      
      * RM_ListGet
      * RM_ListSet
      * RM_ListInsert
      * RM_ListDelete
      
      Iteration is done using a simple for loop over indices.
      The index based functions use an internal iterator as an optimization.
      This is explained in the docs:
      
      ```
       * Many of the list functions access elements by index. Since a list is in
       * essence a doubly-linked list, accessing elements by index is generally an
       * O(N) operation. However, if elements are accessed sequentially or with
       * indices close together, the functions are optimized to seek the index from
       * the previous index, rather than seeking from the ends of the list.
       *
       * This enables iteration to be done efficiently using a simple for loop:
       *
       *     long n = RM_ValueLength(key);
       *     for (long i = 0; i < n; i++) {
       *         RedisModuleString *elem = RedisModule_ListGet(key, i);
       *         // Do stuff...
       *     }
      ```
