What does this PR do?
Backport of saltstack/salt#66649
It is useful in some cases to return NamedLoaderContexts from loaded functions. Instead of choking or requireing implimenters to call the context's value() method before being de-scoped, detect when a NamedLoaderContext has been returned and return the value from the current context.

saltstack/salt#66364 was opened for upstream before, but they decided to put the fix to
