bug#39893: 27.0.90; cannot turn on orgtbl

[Tak Kunihiro]

I cannot call turn-on-orgtbl without (require ‘org) on 27.0.90.
I can call turn-on-orgtbl without (require ‘org) on 26.3.

Thus I thought something unexpected happen.  If it is expected
behavior, I think it’s okay.

$ emacs -Q
(turn-on-orgtbl) ;=> t
