This is helpful for code which just wants to get a variable's value

This function is very similar to buffer_local_value, but we have
two separate code paths here since find_symbol_value has to be very
efficient, while buffer_local_value doesn't have to be.
Note that it must not be possible to quit within this function.
Great care is required for this. */
