With newly introduced parser cache, the cost is amortized when using
`org-element-at-point' and `org-element-context'. With a little care,
the overhead is negligible. Therefore, these functions should be used
whenever possible.

I'm slowly working on introducing these functions in basic parts of Org
(e.g. fontification, indentation). Then I will target other functions
not using them yet. There's a lot to do. Help is welcome. IMO, at the
bare minimum, new or rewritten functions should use them.

For example, a way to correctly find the property drawer associated to
the current section is to use something like the following:

  (save-excursion
    (outline-previous-heading)
    (unless (bobp)
      (let ((limit (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point))))
        (catch 'exit
          (while (re-search-forward org-property-start-re limit t)
            (let ((drawer (org-element-at-point)))
              (when (eq (org-element-type drawer) 'property-drawer)
                ...
                (throw 'exit ...))))))))
