Description:
------------
php > $a = [function () { echo 123; }, '__invoke'];
php > $a();
123
php > $b = Closure::fromCallable($a);
php > $b();
PHP Warning:  Invalid callback , no array or string given in php shell code on line 1
PHP Stack trace:
PHP   1. {main}() php shell code:0
PHP   2. Closure->__invoke() php shell code:1
php > 

The warning is wrong - Closure::fromCallable() could return $a actually :)

It looks like there's a hardcoded assumption that any trampoline function passed to Closure::fromCallable() must be a __call/__callStatic trampoline, while here it's an __invoke() call-via-handler.

Note that we could take this as an opportunity to introduce a new type of callables:

given [$closure, 'method'], this would be resolved as $closure()->method() when called.

We use this style in Symfony where we need lazy-callables.
