We could use ":vim9" as a command modifier. Although it might be
confusing to use the same at script level as with a command modifier.
Using "vim9cmd" and "vim9script" works, and we could use "vim9" as the
short form of "vim9cmd", since it's not so bad putting "vim9script" at
the top of a script, you only type it once.
Shorter forms such as "v9" and "vi9" don't work, these match existing
commands and they would be used in legacy script context.
