Subject: [PATCH] Fix lazy loading for get_coroutine_checker in function_setup
 and check_coroutine

- Add lazy loading for get_coroutine_checker at start of function_setup to ensure all calls use lazy-loaded version
- Fix check_coroutine function to use lazy loading pattern via getattr
- All direct calls to get_coroutine_checker() now properly use lazy import mechanism
