Submit handler to query system.listMethods.

Submit: query the XML-RPC endpoint for the method system.listMethods and report the result as a Drupal message. The result is a list of the available methods in this XML-RPC server.

Important note: Not all XML-RPC servers implement this method. Drupal's built-in XML-RPC server implements this method by default.

Parameters

array $form: Form array.

array $form_state: Form_state array.
