Problem: vim.keymap.del has 'modes' as it's first argument while vim.keymap.set
has 'mode' as it's first argument despite both 'mode' and 'modes' taking in the
same type input of String or String[].
Solution: Updated vim.keymap.set docs to refer to it's first argument
as 'modes'.
Problem:
- Despite [nvim-lspconfig](https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig)
claims to be a "data-only" plugin, in fact it still provides some
user-facing commands because they haven't been upstreamed to Nvim.
Solution:
- Upstream `:LspRestart`, `:LspStart` and `:LspStop` commands as `:lsp
restart`, `:lsp start` and `:lsp stop` respectively.

Problem:
The builtin terminfo defs don't include xterm-ghostty, so features like
`kTerm_set_underline_style` are missing when building without unibilium.
Solution:
- Add ghostty to `gen_terminfo.lua`.
- Note: The ncurses defs are somewhat different than what ghostty ships.
- Special-case ghostty in `terminfo_from_builtin`.
- Add leading "$" to match other environment variable tags.
- Clarify :help $NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath.

Problem:
After bc0635a9fc `vim.wait()` rejects floats
and NaN values.
Solution:
Restore the prior behavior, while still supporting `math.huge`. Update
tests to cover float case.
Problem:
Current options for powershell and pwsh had mistakes and rationale
behind them was not clear.
Solution:
Update the suggested options by splitting up powershell and pwsh, as
well as ensuring that all options work and rationale is documented and
discussed.
Problem: When exiting at the end of the more prompt (at the hit enter
prompt) by hitting q the recording mode will be started.
(Jakub Łuczyński)
Solution: Don't add the q key to the typeahead buffer
in the function wait_return (Bjoern Foersterling)

Problem: diff: missing diff size limit for xdiff
Solution: Impose file size limit for internal diff (xdiff)
(Yee Cheng Chin).
Git imposes a hard cap on file size for content that it passes to xdiff
(added to Git in dcd1742e56e, defined in xdiff-interface.h), due to
integer overflow concerns in xdiff. Vim doesn't specify such a limit
right now, which means it's possible for a user to diff a large file
(1GB+) and trigger these overflow issues.
Add the same size limit (1GB minus 1MB) to Vim and simply throws an
error when Vim encounters files larger than said limit. For now, reuse
the same error message regarding internal diff failures. There is no
need to add the same limit for external diff as it's up to each tool to
error check their input to decide what is appropriate or not.

Problem:
`clint.py` is the last python in our codebase, and beyond that it needs
some cleanup. And it lacks tests, so modifying it can be painful.
Also, we need a way to add ad-hoc lint rules for *Lua*, so it will help
to have our ad-hoc rules for C in the same language (the scripts may
share functions/techniques): https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/28372
Solution:
- convert to `clint.lua` (mostly AI-generated, but it now has test
coverage, unlike `clint.py`)
- drop rules that are no longer needed:
- "readability/multiline_string"
- technially still relevant, but very uncommon so doesn't really matter.
- "--line-length"
- Not used in the old clint.py, nor the new clint.lua.
- "comment whitespace" check
- It is enforced by uncrustify.
- "TODO" check
- The `-google-readability-function-size` clang-tidy rule enforces
"TODO(user)" format. (It was already enabled long ago.)
Problem: :stag does not use 'swichtbuf' option, though the
documentation states differently
(Christian Brabandt)
Solution: Respect 'switchbuf' option (Yegappan Lakshmanan).

Problem:
Our LSP type system didnt have a concept of RegistrationMethods, this is where the method to dynamically register for a capability is sent to a different method endpoint then is used to call it. Eg `textDocument/semanticTokens` rather than the specific full/range/delta methods
Solution:
Extended generator to create `vim.lsp.protocol.Methods.Registration` with these registration methods. Also extend `_request_name_to_client_capability` to cover these methods. Adjust typing to suit
Problem:
Every CI log has a lot of noise at the end, which makes it harder to
find relevant test failures:
Running tests from test/functional/terminal/tui_spec.lua

Solution:
- Skip logging in test-mode.
- This can be reverted later, when these logs are changed to "INFO"
level, per this TODO comment:
```
// TODO(bfredl): This is really ILOG but we want it in all builds.
// add to show_verbose_terminfo() without being too racy ????
WLOG("TUI: terminal mode %d unavailable, state %d", mode, state);
```
Problem:
If a `vim.lsp.config` explicitly sets `exit_timeout`, that indicates the
config wants that behavior for most usages of `:stop()`.
Solution:
Update `:stop()` to use `force=exit_timeout` if `force` was not
explicitly passed.
Problem: gewininfo() does not return if statusline is visible
Solution: Add status_height to the dict items returned by
getwininfo() (Hirohito Higashi)

Problem: Windows: Vim always adds the current directory to search path.
This should only happen when using cmd.exe as 'shell'. For
example, powershell won't run binaries from the current
directory.
Solution: Only add current directory to system path, when using cmd.exe
as 'shell'.

Problem:
The `flags` field calls its sub-fields "experimental".
But `exit_timeout` is now used for multiple purposes.
Solution:
Graduate `exit_timeout` to a top-level ClientConfig field.
Problem:
Remote UIs can't execute lua code when a blocking prompt is waiting for
input. This is needed when implementing IME pre-edit for example.
Solution:
Add an `nvim__exec_lua_fast` experimental API function, which is allowed
to run instead of being queued until after the message has been shown.
Problem:
LSP server may not exit even after the client was stopped/disabled via enable(false).
Solution:
Automatically force-stop after a timeout, unless `client.flags.exit_timeout = false`.
