Problem:
When 'linebreak' pushes a word entirely to the next screen row, the
filler cells left on the current row keep whatever highlight was set
by the last real character before the break, even when that highlight
should not extend past it (e.g. an underline, which looks broken drawn
over blank cells).
Solution:
Reset decor_attr and area_attr at the filler when their attribute has
an underline, undercurl, strikethrough, or overline; otherwise leave
them, since a plain background or reverse-video highlight looks
correct extending through blank filler cells, regardless of where the
pushed-down word happens to end. search_attr keeps the same check,
plus its pre-existing on_last_col case (its own match ending exactly
here).
Problem: The test comparing the top line before and after using the
autocommand window is flaky in the GUI.
Solution: Run the test in a window with a fixed size. In the GUI a
pending resize of the shell is applied at the end of a screen
update, thus the size may change between the two measurements.

Problem:
Calling vim.treesitter.start() a second time on a buffer that already
has an active TSHighlighter creates a brand new instance instead of
reusing it, whether the parser tree is unchanged (e.g. calling start()
twice) or different (e.g. switching languages). Either way the old
instance is silently discarded without calling :destroy() on it, so
its on_bytes/on_changedtree/on_detach callbacks stay registered and
its buffer-local state (spelloptions, decoration namespace) is never
restored, both leaking indefinitely for an orphaned instance that
nothing references anymore.
Solution:
Return the existing instance when TSHighlighter.active[source] is
already set for the same parser tree, instead of unconditionally
constructing a new one. When the tree differs instead (e.g. a language
switch), destroy() the old instance first, matching stop() semantics,
before constructing the new one.
Problem:
Test fails if other "build*/" dirs exist with a "nvim" file, e.g.
`build-asan/bin/nvim`.
Solution:
Do the test in an isolated dir.
This also fixes the test for the zig build.
Problem: With 'virtualedit' set to "all" and 'cursorcolumn' set, the wrong
column may be highlighted after a command that moved the cursor
into virtual space and back (van-de-bugger).
Solution: Make sure the virtual column is up to date before drawing the
window (Hirohito Higashi).

Features of the ed syntax file:
- BSD and GNU extensions are supported
- Andrew L. Moore's ed extensions are not supported
- Rebuild synmenu.vim

Problem:
`:set foo=<tab>` and `:set foo?` for func/expr options set to a Lua
function, always displays "v:lua".
The existing "<Lua N: file:line>" form was avoided because the ref id
N changes on every read of the same option.
Solution:
- Don't attempt to tab-complete Lua functions.
- Show "<Lua file:line>" (or "<Lua>" if source file is unknown).
Example:
:set operatorfunc?
operatorfunc=<Lua ~/.config/nvim/init.lua:42>
Adds optional parameters to `vim.fs.abspath`:
1. `cwd` to specify directory akin to `--relative-from` in `realpath(1)`.
2. `plain` disables expansion of tilde (~) in paths.
Problem: The :compiler command causes a crash. (Daniel Steinberg)
Solution: Do not use the script index if it isn't set.

Problem: With 'smoothscroll' the scroll position in a long line is lost when
a window is temporarily squeezed to a couple of lines, for example
when opening and closing a help window.
Solution: When the cursor ends up in the skipped columns, skip up to the
screen line the cursor is in instead of showing the start of the
line.

Problem:
Numerous callers have to manually check optval ownership (i.e. whether,
and how, to release) via `is_callback_option`, `option_is_global_local`,
etc. This is fragile, hard to use correctly; and if we introduce another
optval variant in the future, we'll have to redo all of these careful
checks and boilerplate again.
Solution:
Provide a unified system and use it everywhere:
optval_free_owned
optval_is_owned
optval_own
Problem:
Cannot assign Lua functions/closures to "func" ('completefunc',
'tagfun', …) or "expr" ('foldexpr', 'indentexpr', …) options.
Solution:
- Store "func"/"expr" options as `Callback` instead of string.
- Delete oceans of copy-pasted code.
- BREAKING: LuaRef returned via RPC/Vimscript is now represented as
`"<Lua N: file:line>"` (like what `:map` shows) instead of `nil`.
- Note: `man.vim` still uses `v:lua` string, bc it's a vimscript ftplugin.

Problem: With 'smoothscroll' the scroll position of a window is lost when
its height changes.
Solution: Only reset the skipped columns when 'smoothscroll' is off, where
they just serve to keep the cursor visible.

Problem: The zip autoload script aborts loading when the "zip"
command is not available, so even read-only browsing of an
archive fails with E117 (zip#Browse undefined) on systems
that have "unzip" but not "zip" (e.g. the Windows CI
runner). Regressed in b0e0b22.
Solution: Drop the load-time executable gate and check each command
per operation instead, so a missing "zip" only affects
writing. Update the test to match the reworded message.

Problem: checkSmall() compares the fold size of window "wp" against
the current window's 'foldminlines'. A fold of another

Problem:
The bundled `zip` plugin is implemented in Vimscript, making it harder to
maintain and build on with Nvim's Lua runtime infrastructure.
Solution:
Add an opt-out `zip.lua` browser backed by `nvim.dir`, and disable the legacy
Vimscript implementation by moving it to `pack/dist/opt/zip/`. Load it with
`:packadd zip`.
Problem:
Cmdline area shows stale ":" after backspacing out of the command line.
Solution:
Clear the command line for empty commands. Note that `:<CR>` will now
clear the command line too.
Problem: An insecurely-set 'indentexpr', 'formatexpr', 'includeexpr'
or 'complete' value can end up evaluated outside the
sandbox after buf_copy_options() and clears the flag.
Solution: Copy the insecure flag alongside the value in
buf_copy_options(), and make 'complete' a per-buffer
insecure-flags field

Problem: Installing plugins during lockfile synchronization always
writes the lockfile, even though its content is used during install.
This might be a problem if the lockfile (itself or its parent
directory) is not writeable (can only be read).
Solution: Do not write the lockfile when installing directly from it.
This is okay since the `src` and `rev` are used directly from the
lockfile and don't change at this step. While potential change in
`version` (that must be written to the lockfile) is handled in other
code path.
Problem:
commit_chars_str() reads a 0x80-0xBF byte as a 2-byte lead, so
"\xA9x" makes "x" a commit character. nvim_get_hl() returns
a dict, so `#` on it is 0 whether or not the group exists
Solution:
use vim.str_utf_end() and drop entries that are not one whole
character. use next check dict length.
Problem:
Cursor-relative floats can use stale screen coordinates after a cursor move is restored without a redraw.

Problem:
Tree-sitter uses UINT32_MAX for full-document ranges, which becomes -1 on 32-bit platforms and reaches _foldupdate as an invalid end row.

Problem:
On NetBSD, `man -w open` can return the exact manpage path, but `:Man`
may still fail when man directories cannot be discovered from `manpath
-q`, bare `man -w`, or `$MANPATH`.
Solution:
Fall back to the direct manpage lookup when directory discovery fails.
Add a test for resolving `open(2)` through `goto_tag()` without manpath
data.
Problem: A preselected item is inserted even with "noinsert", and the
first added preselected item wins over the first one shown
in the menu.
Solution: Use K_DOWN when "noinsert" is set; pick the first preselected
item that made it into the menu.
Problem:
POSIX-compatible Ex-mode requires special-cases all over the codebase to
match various quirks that don't actually matter to users.
- The main utility of *interactive* Ex-mode is its REPL behavior, and
that can be achieved with `cmdwin`, which also gains extra UX
benefits.
- The main utility of *non-interactive* `nvim -es` is for shell
scripting, where Ex-mode quirks are mostly unhelpful (e.g. the
"Entering Ex mode" message).
Solution:
- Reimplement *interactive* Ex-mode as a "persistent, insert-mode
cmdwin" in Lua.
- "nvim -e/-E" is simply an alias to "gQ".
- Reframe *non-interactive* Ex-mode (`nvim -es`) as "script mode".
- Drop POSIX Ex-mode quirks.
Improvements:
- "nvim -V1 -es" output ends with a final newline!
- "nvim -V1 -es" no longer shows the "Entering Ex mode" msg. (This was
pointless noise, unwanted for scripting purposes.)
- stdin is no longer typeahead. Scripts (":lua io.read()") can read
stdin as data.
- Empty line is a no-op: a stray blank line no longer moves the cursor
(deviates from POSIX ex "+1"), no longer exits 1 at EOF (E501).
Preserved behavior:
- cursor starts at "$"
- mode()=="cv" (for non-interactive)
- multiline commands (:append/:function/heredoc pull continuation lines)
- bare-range print
- :print=>stdout
- -V1=>stderr
- CRLF input
- continue-after-error and exit codes
Dropped (regressed) POSIX behavior (non-interactive):
- Event loop only ticks while/between commands, not while blocked
waiting for a stdin line.
- ":g/pat/visual...Q"
- input()/getchar()/":s/x/y/c" no longer consume stdin lines as
answers: Nvim stops at end-of-input, skipping the rest of the script,
exit 0. Use ":lua io.read()" instead.
- If users care about this they should use interactive Ex-mode (`gQ`).
- ":@r" stops at end of the register instead of continuing to read
cmdline input from stdin.
