Right now mark-defun doesn’t really have a notion of nested defun, we should upgrade it to support nested defun like we did beginning/end-of-defun, either by a toggle like mark-defun-tactic or let user control which defun to mark interactively.

"C-u" and "C-u 4" are not the same, and can be distinguished by the
function's body, right?
