Noticed that one cannot use a lambda function as a template
generating function.
Doing so results in the error:
Wrong type argument: symbolp, (lambda...)
The cause is the fboundp check in org-capture-get-template.
Changing this to functionp allows a lambda to be specified and is
consistent with what org-capture-set-target-location allows.
I'm not sure if there are any corner cases I'm unaware of, but it
seems like a simple patch:
diff --git a/lisp/org-capture.el b/lisp/org-capture.el
