Introduce the `vim.compat` module, to help environments with system Lua
5.2+ run the build/tests. Include the module implicitly in all tests.

In Vim (and some vestigial parts of Nvim) E319 was a placeholder for
ex_ni commands, i.e. commands that are only available in certain builds
of Vim. That is obviously counter to Nvim's goals: all Nvim commands
are available on all platforms and build types (the remaining ex_ni
commands are actually just missing providers).
We need an error id for "missing provider", so it makes sense to use
E319 for that purpose.

Problem: Using an external diff program is slow and inflexible.
Solution: Include the xdiff library. (Christian Brabandt)
Use it by default.

Up to now g:clipboard["copy"] only supported string values invoked as
system commands.
This commit enables the use of VimL functions instead. The function
signatures are the same as in provider/clipboard.vim. A clipboard
provider is expected to store and return a list of lines (i.e. the text)
and a register type (as seen in setreg()).
cache_enabled is ignored if "copy" is provided by a VimL function.
Problem: Expression evaluation may repeat an error message. (Jason
Franklin)
Solution: Increment did_emsg and check for the value when giving an error
for the echo command.

If stdin closed then read_error_exit calls preserve_exit. Handling
SIGHUP during preserve_exit would cause a premature teardown, and
conflicts with e.g. ui_bridge_stop which waits for TUI to teardown.
Vim ignores SIGHUP in its prepare_to_exit and getout_preserve_modified
routines:
/* Ignore SIGHUP, because a dropped connection causes a read error, which
* makes Vim exit and then handling SIGHUP causes various reentrance
* problems. */
signal(SIGHUP, SIG_IGN);
Namespaces is a lightweight concept that should be used to group
objects for purposes of bulk operations and introspection. This is
initially used for highlights and virtual text in buffers, and is
planned to also be used for extended marks. There is no plan use them
for privileges or isolation, neither to introduce nanespace-level
options.
By historical accident, Nvim defaults to background=light. So on a dark
background, `:colorscheme default` looks completely wrong.
The "smart" logic that Vim uses is confusing for anyone who uses Vim on
multiple platforms, so rather than mimic that, pick the (hopefully) most
common default.
- Since Neovim is dark-powered, we assume most users have dark backgrounds.
- Most of the GUIs tend to have a dark background by default.

- window_split_tab_spec.lua: Put cursor at bottom of :terminal buffer so
that it follows output.
- inccommand_spec.lua: Increase timeout to allow 2nd retry.
- Timer tests are less reliable on Travis CI macOS 10.12/10.13.

* os/fs.c: add os_isdir_executable()
* eval.c: fix hang on job start caused by non-executable cwd option
* channel.c: assert cwd is an executable directory
* test: jobstart() produces error when using non-executable cwd
Test is unreliable on macOS 10.13. The lower-bound isn't central to the
purpose of the test, so just relax it.
