Problem: filetype: bicep filetype used for 2 bicep file types
Solution: Detect *.bicepparam files as bicep-param filetype, include
new bicep-params and bicep filetype plugin
(Scott McKendry)
The bicep language server handles parameter files differently than
regular bicep files. Treating them the same at the editor level leads to
false positive diagnostics in the editor.

Problem: Comment formatting does not work by default for bpftrace.
Solution: Change default 'formatoptions' similarly as C and many other
languages.

Problem: filetype: Erlang lexical files are not recognized
Solution: Detect *.xrl files as leex filetype, include syntax and
filetype plugins (Jon Parise).
leex is the lexical analyzer generator for Erlang. Its input file format
follows a section-based structure and uses the `.xrl` file extension.
This initial work includes file detection, an ftplugin (which inherits
the Erlang configuration), and a syntax definition.

Problem:
If the buffer changes during iteration of the query matches,
`get_node_text()` may fail, showing an error to the user.
Solution:
Use `pcall` to not propogate the error to the user. Retry once if an
error occurred.
Problem: In some areas plugin's revision is named "state". This might be
confusing for the users.
Solution: Consistently use "revision" to indicate "plugin's state on
disk".
The value of this variable is evaluated when the 'filetype' option is
changed and should be a command string that will undo any configuration
changes that the plugin has made.
See :help undo_indent for details

Problem:
Checking if the tag is nvim-owned (defined in a $VIMRUNTIME/doc/*.txt
file) is too expensive for now without non-obvious workarounds
Solution:
Only set url extmarks for $VIMRUNTIME/doc/*.txt files.
Closes: #36163
fix(help): only set url for nvim-owned tags
Problem:
1. gx on |nonexistingtag| opens
https://neovim.io/doc/user/helptag.html?nonexistingtag.
2. b:undo_ftplugin doesn't remove url extmarks.
Solution:
1. Check if the tag is defined in a help file in $VIMRUNTIME.
2. Solution: clear namespace for buffer in b:undo_ftplugin.
Problem: filetype: KerML and SysML files are not recognized

Problem: filetype: Not all PKL files are recognized
Solution: Detect *.pcf as pkl filetype, detect using the pkl-lsp://
protocol as pkl filetype, include PKL syntax script
(Jan Claußen)
This adds basic syntax support for the new PKL language by Apple.
What works:
- Shebang support
- Comment support
- Integers (decimal, hex, octal and binary) support
- Floating point support including exponentials
- Basic datatype support
- Unicode escape delimiters
- Escape code support
- String interpolation
- Support up to five pounds for custom delimiters
- Folding of multi-line comments and blocks
What doesn't work:
The language heavily uses parameterized type declarations, which can get
very complex. It is very hard to highlight this properly. There is
official Tree-sitter support for this. Since it is hard to pull this off
in a vim syntax file, I opted for basic support of the data types.

Problem:
`gx` does not work on tags in help buffers to open the documentation of that tag in the browser.
Solution:
Get the `optionlink`, `taglink` and `tag` TS nodes and set extmark "url" property.
`gx` then discovers the extmark "url" and opens it.
Filetype plugins should not assume they are the only file to execute on
behalf of a buffer's filetype: other filetypes may use them, and
dotted filetypes may cause multiple to run. When this occurs, they
should _build_ on their respective b:undo_ftplugin settings, not
overwrite each other.
For example, when using a dotted filetype wiki.markdown, the wiki
filetype plugins go first. Then, during the markdown filetype plugins,
the HTML plugin's unconditional assignment to b:undo_ftplugin trashes
any data previously stored there by the wiki filetype.
Follow the pattern elsewhere of assigning or appending conditionally.

Problem: Vim's help file doesn't have any syntax for comments, but
'comments' and 'commentstring' are still set in the help
buffer.

Problem: Health check floating window gets closed when pressing 'gO' to show TOC because LSP floating preview system auto-closes on BufEnter events triggered by :lopen.
Solution: Temporarily disable BufEnter event for the current window during TOC operations and adjust window layout to prevent overlap.
last `unmap` can cause the error "E31: No such mapping" when
`doaudocmd FileType go` if appending other commands to `b:undo_ftplugin` i.e.
the space and the next bar as `let b:undo_ftplugin .= ' | setl ...'`.
