Problem:
Non-trivial to write output of vim.net.request to buffer. Requires extra
code in plugin/net.lua which can't be reused by other plugin authors.
```
vim.net.request('https://neovim.io', {}, function(err, res)
if not err then
local buf = vim.api.nvim_create_buf(true, false)
if res then
local lines = vim.split(res.body, '\n', { plain = true })
vim.api.nvim_buf_set_lines(buf, 0, -1, true, lines)
end
end
end)
```
Solution:
Accept an optional `outbuf` argument to indicate the buffer to write output
to, similar to `outpath`.
vim.net.request('https://neovim.io', { outbuf = buf })
Other fixes / followups:
- Make plugin/net.lua smaller
- Return objection with close() method
- vim.net.request.Opts class
- vim.validate single calls
- Use (''):format(...) instead of `..`
Problem:
The "tohtml" plugin is loaded by default.
Solution:
- Move it to `pack/dist/opt/nvim.tohtml/`, it is an "opt-in" plugin now.
- Document guidelines.
- Also revert the `plugin/` locations of `spellfile.lua` and `net.lua`.
That idea was not worth the trouble, it will be too much re-education
for too little gain.
that was an internal note which somehow slipped in months ago and even
survived the change to Vimscript9

Problem: tests: termdebug test may fail and leave temp file around
(Dominique Pellé)
Solution: only run balloon_show() if the function exists, validate
termdebug is running using the g: termdebug_is_running var,
use defer to delete temporary files
Only include:
- guard balloon_show() in the termdebug plugin
- wait for g:termdebug_is_running in Test_termdebug_basic()
The remaining upstream test cleanups do not apply here.

- Functions are way too long. Readability and maintainability should
be slightly improved.
- Some variables are re-assigned to their initial value at teardown.
This should not be needed since all internal variables are
re-initialized at startup of every Termdebug session.
Only include:
- prompt-mode buffer tracking changes around `promptbufnr`
- prompt buffer cleanup in `CloseBuffers()` and `EndDebugCommon()`
- related `BufUnload` and gdb startup failure cleanup adjustments
The remaining upstream `StartDebug_term()` refactor and helper extraction
do not apply here.

For ASM and Variables buffer, check were done to make sure they existed
before attempting to close them, but not for debugged program or gdb
communication. The debugged program window is a user-facing one and
user might close it manually, so it's better to check if it exists.

Problem:
In autocmd examples, using "args" as the event-object name is vague and
may be confused with a user-command.
Solution:
Use "ev" as the conventional event-object name.
Closing the quickfix window previously triggered a WinClosed autocmd
that deleted all difftool autocmds and pushed an empty quickfix list,
making the difftool non-functional. Users who close the quickfix window
to gain screen real estate for viewing diffs had no way to continue
navigating entries.
Remove the qf_win tracking and its associated WinClosed autocmd so that
closing the quickfix window no longer tears down the difftool state.
Closing either diff window still performs full cleanup as before.
The BufWinEnter handler no longer passes with_qf to diff_files, so
navigating entries while the quickfix window is closed reuses the
existing diff layout without forcing a layout rebuild.
Fixes#37388
Problem:
- Nvim supports multi-line input in prompt buffer, so line(`$`) is not
always the prompt line.
Solution:
- Use `line("':")` to get the prompt line.
Problem: When using netrw to navigate directories, vim immediately
creates, then deletes a swap file in the entered directory,
causing the lastModifiedTime of that directory to change.
Solution: Use the :noswapfile command modifier in s:NetrwEditFile()

Problem: When Vim is launched with a UNC directory, netrw treats it as a
relative path and compose it again.
Solution: This is due to `exists("g:netrw_cygwin")` always being true.
We can directly use `g:netrw_cygwin`.

Problem: confusing that there is the tag `undo-tree` (the Vim
implementation) and `undotree` (the Lua plugin for visualization).
Solution: rename tag to undotree-plugin. Mention the plugin in the docs of
|undotree|.
Problem: Changing permissions fail when using `gp` if the file under
the cursor is not in the current working directory.
Solution: Use the already available `a:curdir` argument and prepend it
to the `<cfile>`, so that the path of the file is correct.
This commit also refactors some leftover `netrw#ErrorMsg` to
`netrw#msg#Notify` (the main refactoring was done in
f5e3b5c04f85b0f69cd2aae81e4938cfb191a790).

Suppresses output from the :only command by passing the { silent = true }
modifier to vim.cmd.only(). This prevents unnecessary messages when
setting up the diff layout.
Closes#36167
- Move autocmd cleanup logic back to setup_layout as WinClosed autocmds
were triggering for every closed window even when buf scoped, and when
buf scoped, pattern filter did not work.
- Cleanup when quickfix window is closed as well to prevent state where
on closing quickfix setup_layout will reset it after with empty
content because of WinClosed autocmds triggering.

Fixes issue on mac where it was constantly reloading buffers as paths
were not being normalized and resolved correctly (in relation to buffer
name).
Quickfix entry:
/var/folders/pt/2s7dzyw12v36tsslrghfgpkr0000gn/T/git-difftool.m95lj8/right/app.vue
Buffer name:
/private/var/folders/pt/2s7dzyw12v36tsslrghfgpkr0000gn/T/git-difftool.m95lj8/right/app.vue
/var was synlinked to /private/var and this was not being properly
handled.
Also added lazy redraw to avoid too many redraws when this happens in
future and added test for symlink handling.

- Always open the right window to the right, regardless of 'splitright'
setting, ensuring the left window is always leftmost.
- Use `vim.fn.systemlist` for diffr output to avoid manual splitting.
- Add a test to verify window layout consistency with 'splitright' and
'nosplitright' options.
- Escape quotes in git difftool example properly.

Problem:
Built-in diff mode (nvim -d) does not support directory diffing
as required by git difftool -d. This makes it difficult to compare
entire directories, detect renames, and navigate changes efficiently.
Solution:
Add a DiffTool plugin and command that enables side-by-side diffing of
files and directories in Neovim. The plugin supports rename detection,
highlights changes in the quickfix list, and provides a user command for
easy invocation. This allows proper integration with git difftool -d for
directory comparison.
Example git config:
```ini
[diff]
tool = nvim_difftool
[difftool "nvim_difftool"]
cmd = nvim -c "packadd nvim.difftool" -c "DiffTool $LOCAL $REMOTE"
```

Problem:
Difference in highlight color between normal lines and extmark lines is
distracting and conveys little information.
Solution:
Set extmarks highlight to the Normal group.
There are really two issues solved here:
- The directory listing was not populating the new buffer when using
the :Explore command. This was because the directory to open is
determined by using expand("%:p") which includes '!/running/command' at
the end of the string in terminal buffers.
- The :Explore command should replace the buffer, not split it. This
because the Explore command will automatically split if the current
buffer has been modified. According to the docs, all terminal buffers
will have the modified flag set when a job is running.

This change includes the following upstream commits:
- fix: remove black lines in directory listing
- fix: correctly create new file when using Lexplore
- refactor: remove print functionality

in neovim and vim.
