In the first set of changes to haslocaldir(), I did implement haslocaldir() to
return 1 or 2 depending on whether the current window has a win-local or
a tab-local directory. But then I decided to change it to always return 1 for
both cases (because the existing scripts are not distinguishing between 1 and 2,
and to be consistent with the neovim implementation). We can change this
implementation, if it will be more useful to return different values.
