=item pad_findlex
Find a named lexical anywhere in a chain of nested pads. Add fake entries

-ref to it at newoff in the current pad.

+Returns the offset in the bottom pad of the lex or the fake lex.
+cv is the CV in which to start the search, and seq is the current cop_seq
+to match against. If warn is true, print appropriate warnings. The out_*
+vars return values, and so are pointers to where the returned values
+should be stored. out_capture, if non-null, requests that the innermost
+instance of the lexical is captured; out_name_sv is set to the innermost
+matched namesv or fake namesv; out_flags returns the flags normally
+associated with the IVX field of a fake namesv.
+
+Note that pad_findlex() is recursive; it recurses up the chain of CVs,
+then comes back down, adding fake entries as it goes. It has to be this way
+because fake namesvs in anon protoypes have to store in NVX the index into
+the parent pad.
