This was kept for a while as it was a useful short hand and initially
matched what highlights what actually properly implemented. But now
|vim.hl.range()| is a better high-level shorthand with full support for
native multi-line ranges.
Making this opt-out (on by default) was the wrong choice from the
beginning. It is too visually noisy to be enabled by default.
BREAKING CHANGE: Users must opt-in to the diagnostic virtual text
handler by adding
vim.diagnostic.config({ virtual_text = true })
to their config.
Problem:
With language servers like lemminx, completing xml tags like `<mo` first
shows the right candidates (`modules`) but after typing `d` the
candidates disappear.
This is because the server returns:
[...]
filterText = "<module",
label = "module",
textEdit = {
newText = "<module>$1</module>$0",
Which resulted in `module` being used as `word`, and `module` doesn't
match the prefix `<mo`. Typing `d` causes the `complete()` filtering
mechanism to kick in and remove the entry.
Solution:
Use `<module` from the `filterText` as `word` if the textEdit/label
heuristic doesn't match.
Problem: no way to get current selected item in a async context
Solution: add completed flag to show the entries of currently selected
index item (glepnir)

* refactor(options): generic expand and did_set callbacks
Problem:
Many options have similar callbacks to check the values are valid.
Solution:
Generalize these callbacks into a single function that reads the option
table.
* refactor: gen_options.lua
refactor: gen_options.lua - inline get_cond
* refactor(options): use a simpler format for the common default
Problem:
`yx` uses "y" prefix, which shadows a builtin operator.
Solution:
Use `g=` (in the form of `g==` currently), drawing from precedent of
CTRL-= and 'tpope/vim-scriptease'.
Problem:
Per the documentation, passing `false` as the `enable` parameter of
`vim.lsp.enable()` should disable the given LSP(s), but it does not work
due to a logic error.
Specifically, `enable == false and nil or {}` will always evaluate to
`{}` because `nil` is falsy.
Solution:
Correct the conditional statement.
When `root_dir` is a function it can (and often will) call the provided
callback function in a fast API context (e.g. in the `on_exit` handler
of `vim.system`). When the callback function is executed we should
ensure that it runs vim.lsp.start on the main event loop.
Problem: Anchoring a floating window to the tabline and laststatus is
cumbersome; requiring autocommands and looping over all
windows/tabpages.
Solution: Add new "tabline" and "laststatus" options to the `relative`
field of nvim_open_win() to place a window relative to.
**Problem:** The treesitter `foldexpr` runs synchronous parses to
calculate fold levels, which eliminates async parsing performance in the
highlighter.
**Solution:** Migrate the `foldexpr` to also calculate and apply fold
levels asynchronously.
Problem:
The floating window for hover and signature help always cuts off a few lines,
because the `_make_floating_popup_size` function counts empty lines as having
zero height.
Solution:
Ensure the height is at least 1.
Problem:
Whether an option is allowed to be empty isn't well defined and
isn't properly checked.
Solution:
- For non-list string options, explicitly check the option value
if it is empty.
- Annotate non-list string options that can accept an empty value.
- Adjust command completion to ignore the empty value.
- Render values in Lua meta files
**Problem:** `vim.treesitter.get_parser()` and `vim.treesitter.start()`
both parse the tree before returning it. This is problematic because if
this is a sync parse, it will stall the editor on large files. If it is
an async parse, the functions return stale trees.
**Solution:** Remove this parsing side effect and leave it to the user
to parse the returned trees, either synchronously or asynchronously.
**Problem:** Parsing can be slow for large files, and it is a blocking
operation which can be disruptive and annoying.
**Solution:** Provide a function for asynchronous parsing, which accepts
a callback to be run after parsing completes.

**Problem:** Query parsing uses a weak cache which is invalidated
frequently
**Solution:** Make the cache strong, and invalidate it manually when
necessary (that is, when `rtp` is changed or `query.set()` is called)

Problem: filetype: various ignore are not recognized
Solution: detect rg/docker/npm/vvsce ignore files as 'gitgnore' filetype
(Wu, Zhenyu)
Not only prettier, but many programs also support ignore files (like rg,
docker, npm, vscode). So use the gitignore filetype for them due to same syntax

BREAKING CHANGE: This changes the list of diagnostics that are passed to
a diagnostic handler. If a handler is already filtering by severity
itself then this won't break anything, since the handler's filtering
will become a no-op. But handlers which depend on receiving the full
list of diagnostics may break.
Note that diagnostics are only filtered if the handler's configuration
has the `severity` option set. If `severity` is not set, the handler
still receives the full list of diagnostics.
Problem:
The `nvim_notify` API (note: unrelated to `vim.notify()` Lua API) was
not given any real motivation in https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/13843
There are, and were, idiomatic and ergonomic alternatives already.
Solution:
Deprecate `nvim_notify`.
Problem: We want to deprecate `nvim_err_write(ln)()` but there is no
obvious replacement (from Lua). Meanwhile we already have
`nvim_echo()` with an `opts` argument.
Solution: Add `err` argument to `nvim_echo()` that directly maps to
`:echoerr`.

**Problem:** The treesitter `foldexpr` calls `get_parser()` for each
line in the buffer when calculating folds. This can be incredibly slow
for buffers where a parser cannot be found (because the result is not
cached), and exponentially more so when the user has many
`runtimepath`s.
**Solution:** Only fetch the parser when it is needed; that is, only
when initializing fold data for a buffer.

Problem: open_floating_preview() may be hidden behind current window if
that is floating and has a higher zindex.
Solution: Open floating preview with zindex higher than current window.
