[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59022] [octave forge] (image) test failures in blockproc.m under Octave 6.0.90

[Hartmut]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #59022 (project octave):

What I am still missing is a good way to detect the return object of inline.m
in a reliable way under Octave 6 and Octave 5.2 (and earlier Octave
versions).

* typeinfo does not work. It returns "class" under Octave 6.0.90 but "inline
function" under Octave 5.2
* is_function_handle does not work. It returns FALSE under Octave 6.0.90 but
TRUE under Octave 5.2.0
* class does not work (easily). It returns "inline" under Octave 6.0.90 but
"function_handle" under Octave 5.2. (and probably returned "inline function"
in some earlier Octave version.)

Maybe we need to stick to the "dirty" way with comparing class name strings,
and allow both "inline" and "function_handle" and maybe "inline function"?
