This changes Ex mode (Q, -e) to work like Vim's "improved Ex mode"
(gQ, -E). That brings some small behavior differences, but should not
impact most Ex scripts (unless, for example, they depend on mappings
being disabled--but that can be solved for -e by skipping user config).
Before this change:
* the screen test hangs.
After this change:
* Q acts like gQ.
* -e/-es differs from -E/-Es only in its treatment of stdin.
This moves towards potentially removing getexmodeline().
(HINT: That does NOT mean "removing Ex mode", it means removing the
Vi-compatible Ex mode, which differs from Vim's "improved Ex mode" only
in some minor details (e.g. mappings are disabled).)

Problem: When calling setpos() with a buffer argument it often is ignored.
(Matthew Malcomson)
Solution: Make the buffer argument work for all marks local to a buffer.
(neovim vim/vim#5713) Add more tests.

Fixes 2 failing tests in startup_spec.lua.
The Windows-only `--literal` option complicates support of "stdin-as-text
+ file-args" (#7679). Could work around it, but it's not worth
the trouble:
- users have a reasonable (and englightening) alternative: nvim +"n *"
- "always literal" is more consistent/predictable
- avoids platform-specific special-case
Unrelated changes:
- Replace fileno(stdxx) with STDXX_FILENO for consistency (not motivated
by any observed technical reason).
Problem: Character classes are not well tested. They can differ between
platforms.
Solution: Add tests. In the documentation make clear which classes depend
on what library function. Only use :cntrl: and :graph: for ASCII.
(Kazunobu Kuriyama, Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#1560)
Update the documentation.

Problem: MS-Windows users are confused about default mappings.
Solution: Don't map keys in the console where they don't work. Add a choice
in the installer to use MS-Windows key bindings or not. (Christian
Brabandt, Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#2093)

Problem: When using the tiny version trying to load the matchit plugin
gives an error. On MS-Windows some default mappings fail.
Solution: Add a check if the command used is available. (Christian Brabandt)

Problem: No autocmd triggered in Insert mode with visible popup menu.
Solution: Add TextChangedP. (Prabir Shrestha, Christian Brabandt,
closesvim/vim#2372, closesvim/vim#1691)
Fix that the TextChanged autocommands are not always triggered
when sourcing a script.

OpenBSD's man returns all candidates when searching with -w instead of
the first one it finds. So this patch takes the first one if multiple
entries are found.

After this change we never release blocks from memory (in practice it
never happened because the memory limits are never reached). Let the OS
take care of that.
---
On today's systems the 'maxmem' and 'maxmemtot' values are huge (4+ GB)
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-paging mechanism. This is unnecessary and inefficient since the
operating system already has virtual 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.
Remove "" from sys.path (typically the first entry), which could cause
e.g. "logging" to be added from the current directory.
This gets done already for loading the host in
runtime/autoload/provider/pythonx.vim.
ref #6725
fsync() is very slow on some systems. And since the parent commit, Nvim
is smarter about flushing files at certain times (e.g. CursorHold),
regardless of whether 'fsync' is enabled. So it's less risky to disable
'fsync'.
Profiling showed slow (2-4s) :write and :quit caused by fsync():
:quit
shada_write_file(NULL, false);

children_kill_cb() is racey. One obvious problem is that
process_close_handles() is *queued* by on_process_exit(), so when
children_kill_cb() is invoked, the dead process might still be in the
`loop->children` list. If the OS already reclaimed the dead PID, Nvim
may try to SIGKILL it.
Avoid that by checking `proc->status`.
Vim doesn't have this problem because it doesn't attempt to kill
processes that ignored SIGTERM after a timeout.
