Problem: Error when the drive of the swap file was disconnected.
Solution: Try closing and re-opening the swap file. (closesvim/vim#4378)

Remove `export` pramgas from defs headers as it causes IWYU to believe
that the definitions from the defs headers comes from main header, which
is not what we really want.
Memfile used a private implementation of an open hash table with intrusive collision chains, but there is
no reason to assume the standard khash_t based Map won't work just fine.
Yes, we are taking full ownership and maintenance over memline and memfile.
No one is going to maintain it for us.
Trust the plan.
Problem: Get E304 when using 'cryptmethod' "xchacha20v2". (Steve Mynott)
Solution: Add 4th crypt method to block zero ID check. Avoid syncing a swap
file before reading the file. (closesvim/vim#12433)

On today's systems these values are huge (4GB in my machine with 8GB of RAM
since it's set as half the available memory by default) so the limits are
never reached in practice, but Vim wastes a lot of time checking if the limit
was reached.
If the limit is reached Vim starts saving pieces of the swap file that were in
memory to the disk. Said in a different way: Vim implements its own memory
swapping mechanism. This is unnecessary and inefficient since the operating
system already virtualized the memory and will swap to the disk if programs
start using too much memory.
This change does...
1. Reduce the number of config options and need for documentation.
2. Make the code more efficient as we don't have to keep track of memory usage
nor check if the memory limits were reached to start swapping to disk every
time we need memory for buffers.
3. Simplify the code. Once `memfile.c` is simple enough it could be replaced by
actual operating system memory mapping (`mmap`, `MemoryViewOfFile`...).
This change does not prevent Vim to recover changes from swap files since the
swapping code is never triggered with the huge limits set by default.
- memfile_defs.h:
* hashtab_T: mht_mask: long_u -> size_t.
Masks are used to truncate keys to a value adequate for an index
in the array of entries. Value of the mask plus one is the
current size of the array. Both of those reasons imply the
soundness of size_t for this type.
* hashtab_T: mht_count: long_u -> size_t.
- memfile.c:
* total_mem_used: long_u -> size_t.
* mf_hash_free_all: idx: long_u -> size_t.
* mf_hash_add_item: idx: long_u -> size_t.
* mf_hash_find: idx: long_u -> size_t.
* mf_hash_grow: i: long_u -> size_t.
* mf_hash_grow: j: long_u -> size_t.
- Drop '_S' suffix for struct names.
- Make struct names match corresponding type's name (just removing '_S' suffix).
- Rename NR_TRANS type/struct (just ugly).
memfile_defs.h:
- Inline struct definitions in typedefs.
- Move memfile_T definition to this file (weirdly, was in buffer_defs.h).
memfile.c:
- Use C99 style variable declarations. This is, move variable declarations as
near to first-usage point as possible).
- Modernize old-style function declarations.
- Fix indent at some places (some multiline expressions and the like).
As discussed in #694, vim encryption uses old,
obsolete algorithms that are poorly implemented.
Since insecure cryptography is worse than no
cryptgraphy, the community voted in favor of
removing all crypto.
Various alternatives to the old crypto is
being discussed in #701.
Closes#694.
Move files from src/ to src/nvim/.
- src/nvim/ becomes the new root dir for nvim executable sources.
- src/libnvim/ is planned to become root dir of the neovim library.
