Problem:
Some language servers do not work properly without a workspace folder.
Solution:
Add `workspace_required`, which skips starting the lsp client if no
workspace folder is found.

Problem: Diff mode's inline highlighting is lackluster. It only
performs a line-by-line comparison, and calculates a single
shortest range within a line that could encompass all the
changes. In lines with multiple changes, or those that span
multiple lines, this approach tends to end up highlighting
much more than necessary.
Solution: Implement new inline highlighting modes by doing per-character
or per-word diff within the diff block, and highlight only the
relevant parts, add "inline:simple" to the defaults (which is
the old behaviour)
This change introduces a new diffopt option "inline:<type>". Setting to
"none" will disable all inline highlighting, "simple" (the default) will
use the old behavior, "char" / "word" will perform a character/word-wise
diff of the texts within each diff block and only highlight the
differences.
The new char/word inline diff only use the internal xdiff, and will
respect diff options such as algorithm choice, icase, and misc iwhite
options. indent-heuristics is always on to perform better sliding.
For character highlight, a post-process of the diff results is first
applied before we show the highlight. This is because a naive diff will
create a result with a lot of small diff chunks and gaps, due to the
repetitive nature of individual characters. The post-process is a
heuristic-based refinement that attempts to merge adjacent diff blocks
if they are separated by a short gap (1-3 characters), and can be
further tuned in the future for better results. This process results in
more characters than necessary being highlighted but overall less visual
noise.
For word highlight, always use first buffer's iskeyword definition.
Otherwise if each buffer has different iskeyword settings we would not
be able to group words properly.
The char/word diffing is always per-diff block, not per line, meaning
that changes that span multiple lines will show up correctly.
Added/removed newlines are not shown by default, but if the user has
'list' set (with "eol" listchar defined), the eol character will be be
highlighted correctly for the specific newline characters.
Also, add a new "DiffTextAdd" highlight group linked to "DiffText" by
default. It allows color schemes to use different colors for texts that
have been added within a line versus modified.
This doesn't interact with linematch perfectly currently. The linematch
feature splits up diff blocks into multiple smaller blocks for better
visual matching, which makes inline highlight less useful especially for
multi-line change (e.g. a line is broken into two lines). This could be
addressed in the future.
As a side change, this also removes the bounds checking introduced to
diff_read() as they were added to mask existing logic bugs that were
properly fixed in vim/vim#16768.

Problem:
There is currently no global option to define the default border style for floating windows. This leads to repetitive code when developers need consistent styling across multiple floating windows.
Solution:
Introduce a global option winborder to specify the default border style for floating windows. When a floating window is created without explicitly specifying a border style, the value of the winborder option will be used. This simplifies configuration and ensures consistency in floating window appearance.

Problem:
Current `'includeexpr'` in runtime/ftplugin/lua.vim doesn't work with Nvim Lua.
Solution:
Provide an improved 'includeexpr' for Lua in "ftplugin/lua.lua".
Closes: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/32490
Problem: `trigger` is a custom word not yet used in APIs.
Solution: Use `get` instead because the main effect is that the
completion candidates will be collected (and shown by default,
but follow-up commits are planned to add an `on_result` callback
that allows more general handling).

Problem:
- Many other ftplugin have defined 'omnifunc', but the Lua one doesn't
define one, even though there is `vim.lua_omnifunc()`
- Users may want "stupid" completion to fix Lua config with
`nvim --clean` in case they breaks it
- Nvim doesn't port Lua foldexpr from Vim
Solution:
- Set 'omnifunc' to 'v:lua.vim.lua_omnifunc' in ftplugin/lua.lua
- Set 'foldexpr' to use treesitter
Problem:
`feed_command()` was added as a "bridge" for old test code. 99% of those
cases should be using `n.command()`, which raises errors instead of
silently continuing the test.
Solution:
Deprecate `feed_command()`. It should not be used in new tests.
All usages of `feed_command()` should be converted to `command()` or
`feed()`.
This matches the `iter_captures` functionality to the `iter_matches`
functionality, allowing it to specify a match limit and start depth for
the query iterator.
Problem: Cannot disable individual captures and patterns in treesitter queries.
Solution:
* Expose the corresponding tree-sitter API functions for `TSQuery` object.
* Add documentation for `TSQuery`.
* Return the pattern ID from `get_captures_at_pos()` (and hence `:Inspect!`).
Problem:
vim.lsp.completion with "autotrigger" enabled, does not send
completion context, even though it has all the necessary info.
Solution:
Include the context for "autotrigger".
trigger() also optionally accepts context when manually invoked.
When a plugin registers a TermRequest handler there is currently no way
for the handler to know where the terminal's cursor position was when
the sequence was received. This is often useful information, e.g. for
OSC 133 sequences which are used to annotate shell prompts.
Modify the event data for the TermRequest autocommand to be a table
instead of just a string. The "sequence" field of the table contains the
sequence string and the "cursor" field contains the cursor
position when the sequence was received.
To maintain consistency between TermRequest and TermResponse (and to
future proof the latter), TermResponse's event data is also updated to
be a table with a "sequence" field.
BREAKING CHANGE: event data for TermRequest and TermResponse is now a
table
Problem: command-line auto-completion hard with wildmenu
Solution: implement "noselect" wildoption value (Girish Palya)
When `noselect` is present in `wildmode` and 'wildmenu' is enabled, the
completion menu appears without pre-selecting the first item.
This change makes it easier to implement command-line auto-completion,
where the menu dynamically appears as characters are typed, and `<Tab>`
can be used to manually select an item. This can be achieved by
leveraging the `CmdlineChanged` event to insert `wildchar(m)`,
triggering completion menu.
Without this change, auto-completion using the 'wildmenu' mechanism is
not feasible, as it automatically inserts the first match, preventing
dynamic selection.
The following Vimscript snippet demonstrates how to configure
auto-completion using `noselect`:
```vim
vim9script
set wim=noselect:lastused,full wop=pum wcm=<C-@> wmnu
autocmd CmdlineChanged : timer_start(0, function(CmdComplete, [getcmdline()]))
def CmdComplete(cur_cmdline: string, timer: number)
var [cmdline, curpos] = [getcmdline(), getcmdpos()]
if cur_cmdline ==# cmdline # Avoid completing each character in keymaps and pasted text
&& !pumvisible() && curpos == cmdline->len() + 1
if cmdline[curpos - 2] =~ '[\w*/:]' # Reduce noise by completing only selected characters
feedkeys("\<C-@>", "ti")
set eventignore+=CmdlineChanged # Suppress redundant completion attempts
timer_start(0, (_) => {
getcmdline()->substitute('\%x00$', '', '')->setcmdline() # Remove <C-@> if no completion items exist
set eventignore-=CmdlineChanged
})
endif
endif
enddef
```

**Problem:** Some weird languages have different comment syntax
depending on the location in the code, and we do not have a way to
determine the correct `commentstring` for these special cases.
**Solution:** Allow queries to specify `commentstring` values in
metadata, allowing users/`nvim-treesitter` to provide a better
commenting experience without hugely increasing the scope of the code in
core.
Problem: No way to check the version of a treesitter parser.
Solution: Add version metadata (ABI 15 parsers only) as well as parser state count and supertype information (ABI 15) in `vim.treesitter.language.inspect()`. Also graduate the `abi_version` field, as this is now the official upstream name.

Problem:
Indenting text is a common task in plugins/scripts for
presentation/formatting, yet vim has no way of doing it (especially
"dedent", and especially non-buffer text).
Solution:
Introduce `vim.text.indent()`. It sets the *exact* indentation because
that's a more difficult (and thus more useful) task than merely
"increasing the current indent" (which is somewhat easy with a `gsub()`
one-liner).
TSHighlighter now places marks for conceal_lines metadata. A new
internal decor provider callback _on_conceal_line was added that
instructs the highlighter to place conceal_lines marks whenever the
editor needs to know whether a line is concealed. The bundled markdown
queries use conceal_lines metadata to conceal code block fence lines.
Problem:
- Many other ftplugin have defined 'omnifunc', but the Lua one doesn't
define one, even though there is `vim.lua_omnifunc()`
- Users may want "stupid" completion to fix Lua config with
`nvim --clean` in case they breaks it
Solution:
Set 'omnifunc' to 'v:lua.vim.lua_omnifunc' in ftplugin/lua.lua
Problem: It's difficult to navigate large structured text files (vim
help, checkhealth, Markdown).
Solution: Support `gO` for table of contents and `]]`/`[[` for moving
between headings for all these filetypes using treesitter queries.
Refactor: colorization of highlight groups is moved to the `help` ftplugin
while headings-related functionality is implemented in a private
`vim.treesitter` module for possible future use for other filetypes.
**Problem:** Currently, parsing is asynchronous, but it involves a
(sometimes lengthy) step which finds all injection ranges for a tree by
iterating over that language's injection queries. This causes edits in
large files to be extremely slow, and also causes a long stutter during
the initial parse of a large file.
**Solution:** Break up the injection query iteration over multiple event
loop iterations.
Problem: `vim.treesitter._create_parser()` silently loads the buffer,
bypassing the swapfile prompt.
Solution: Error for an unloaded buffer, ensure buffer is loaded in
`vim.treesitter.start()` instead.
vim-patch:partial:9.1.1084: Unable to persistently ignore events in a window and its buffers
Problem: Unable to persistently ignore events in a window and its buffers.
Solution: Add 'eventignorewin' option to ignore events in a window and buffer
(Luuk van Baal)
Add the window-local 'eventignorewin' option that is analogous to
'eventignore', but applies to a certain window and its buffers. Identify
events that should be allowed in 'eventignorewin', adapt "auto_event"
and "event_tab" to encode this information. Window context is not passed
onto apply_autocmds_group(), and when to ignore an event is a bit
ambiguous when "buf" is not "curbuf", rather than a large refactor, only
ignore an event when all windows into "buf" are ignoring the event.

Problem:
No obvious way to see diagnostics without configuring it first.
Solution:
Add `Show Diagnostics`, `Show All Diagnostics` and `Configure
Diagnostics` buttons to the context menu.
Now `:InspectTree` will show missing nodes as e.g. `(MISSING identifier)`
or `(MISSING ";")` rather than just `(identifier)` or `";"`. This is
doable because the `MISSING` keyword is now valid query syntax.
