Also adds one exception to linter rules:
typedef struct {
kvec_t(Object) stack;
} EncodedData;
is completely valid (from the style guide point of view) code.
This removes some stack overflows in new test regarding deeply nested variables.
Now in place of crashing vim_to_object/msgpack_rpc_from_object/etc it crashes
clear_tv with stack overflow.
This ought to prevent stack overflow, but I do not see this actually working:
*lua* code crashes with stack overflow when trying to deserialize msgpack from
Neovim, Neovim is fine even if nesting level is increased 100x (though test
becomes very slow); not sure how recursive function may survive this. So it
looks like there are currently only two positive effects:
1. NULL lists are returned as empty (#4596).
2. Functional tests are slightly more fast. Very slightly. Checked for Release
build for test/functional/eval tests because benchmarking of debug mode is
not very useful.
New ex commands: 'tcd', 'tchdir'
Changed Vimscript functions: 'haslocaldir', 'getcwd'
The ex-commands ':tcd' and ':tchdir' are the tab-local equivalents of
':lcd' and ':lchdir'. There are no new Vimscript functions introduced,
instead the functions 'haslocaldir' and 'getcwd' take in optional
arguments. See the documentation for details
Since there is now different levels of local directory a simple boolean
at source level is no longer sufficient; a new enumeration type is used
for the scope-level from now on.
The documentation has been accommodated for these new commands and
functional tests have been written to test the feature.
Reasons:
- One does not have to do `s[len] = NUL` to work with these functions if they do
not need to replace the whole string: thus `s` may be const.
- One does not have to save/restore p_cpo to work with them.
-1 is index past the end, and -2 is the index of the last element.
This eliminates the need for include_start/include_end.
Allow the handling of out-of-bounds to be configurable.
What works:
1. ShaDa file dumping: header, registers, jump list, history, search patterns,
substitute strings, variables.
2. ShaDa file reading: registers, global marks, variables.
Most was not tested.
TODO:
1. Merging.
2. Reading history, local marks, jump and buffer lists.
3. Documentation update.
4. Converting some data from &encoding.
5. Safer variant of dumping viminfo (dump to temporary file then rename).
6. Removing old viminfo code (currently masked with `#if 0` in a ShaDa file for
reference).
API functions exposed via msgpack-rpc now fall into two categories:
- async functions, which are executed as soon as the request is parsed
- sync functions, which are invoked in nvim main loop when processing the
`K_EVENT special key
Only a few functions which can be safely executed in any context are marked as
async.
Arguments passed to xmemdupz() are sometimes NULL, but xmemdupz() has
FUNC_ATTR_NONNULL_ALL. Check pointers for NULL before calling
xmemdupz().
Resolves#2533.
Consider: `let vim = rpcstart('nvim', ['--embed'])`
Allows `rpcnotify(vim, ...)` to work like an asynchronous
`rpcrequest(nvim, ...)`.

We already use wrappers for allocation, the new `xfree` function is the
equivalent for deallocation and provides a way to fully replace the malloc
implementation used by Neovim.
Most internal functions to modify buffers operate on the current buffer and
require temporary switchs. This macro is a temporary workaround until a cleaner
refactoring of the internal API is performed.
- Removed term.c, term.h and term_defs.h
- Tests for T_* values were removed. screen.c was simplified as a
consequence(the best strategy for drawing is implemented in the UI layer)
- Redraw functions now call ui.c functions directly. Updates are flushed with
`ui_flush()`
- Removed all termcap options(they now return empty strings for compatibility)
- &term/&ttybuiltin options return a constant value(nvim)
- &t_Co is still available, but it mirrors t_colors directly
- Remove cursor tracking from screen.c and the `screen_start` function. Now the
UI is expected to maintain cursor state across any call, and reset it when
resized.
- Remove unused code
