Allow iterating over bif functions with result type vector of any.

This changes the internal type that is used to signal that a vector
is unspecified from any to void.

I tried to verify that the behavior of Bro is still the same. After
a lot of playing around, I think everything still should worl as before.

However, it might be good for someone to take a look at this.
