These are not needed after #35129 but making uncrustify still play nice
with them was a bit tricky.
Unfortunately `uncrustify --update-config-with-doc` breaks strings
with backslashes. This issue has been reported upstream,
and in the meanwhile auto-update on every single run has been disabled.
Currently having two separate memory strategies for API return values is
a bit unnecessary, and mostly a consequence of converting the hot spot
cases which needed it first. But there is really no downside to using
arena everywhere (which implies also directly using strings which are
allocated earlier or even statically, without copy).
There only restriction is we need to know the size of arrays in advance,
but this info can often be passed on from some earlier stage if it is
missing.
This collects some "small" cases. The more complex stuff will get a PR
each.
problem: can we have Serde?
solution: we have Serde at home
This by itself is just a change of notation, that could be quickly
merged to avoid messy merge conflicts, but upcoming changes are planned:
- keysets no longer need to be defined in one single file. `keysets.h` is
just the initial automatic conversion of the previous `keysets.lua`.
keysets just used in a single api/{scope}.h can be moved to that file, later on.
- Typed dicts will have more specific types than Object. this will
enable most of the existing manual typechecking boilerplate to be eliminated.
We will need some annotation for missing value, i e a boolean will
need to be represented as a TriState (none/false/true) in some cases.
- Eventually: optional parameters in form of a `Dict opts` final
parameter will get added in some form to metadata. this will require
a discussion/desicion about type forward compatibility.
Problem: Syntax coloring and highlighting is in one big file.
Solution: Move the highlighting to a separate file. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,

Name the new file highlight_group.c instead.
