Problem: Messages preceding a `cmdline_show->prompt` event can not be
distinguished as such when receiving the event. (But since
`msg_show` handlers should be scheduled, one can already check
whether a prompt is active when displaying the message.)
Solution: Rather than add a new kind again, use the `confirm` kind.
Could be seen as slightly misleading where it is more of
a choice rather than a confirmation, but that already applies
to `confirm()` as well...
PuTTY sets TERM=xterm, but sends ESC[1~ and ESC[4~ for Home/End keys,
which does not match what the 'xterm' terminfo has for khome/kend, so
libtermkeys instead reports them as the original DEC VT220 names.
The VT220 came with a DEC LK201 keyboard which had the following keys in
the area above arrow keys (where PCs now have Ins/Del/Home/End/etc):
┌────────┬────────┬────────┐
│ Find │ Insert │ Re- │
│ │ Here │ move │
├────────┼────────┼────────┤
│ Select │ Prev │ Next │
│ │ Screen │ Screen │
└────────┴────────┴────────┘
These would send ESC[x~ sequences in the expected order:
┌────────┬────────┬────────┐
│ ESC[1~ │ ESC[2~ │ ESC[3~ │
├────────┼────────┼────────┤
│ ESC[4~ │ ESC[5~ │ ESC[6~ │
└────────┴────────┴────────┘
Modern terminals continue to use the same sequences for Ins/Del as well
as PageUp/PageDn. But the VT220 keyboard apparently had no Home/End, and
PuTTY apparently chose to re-purpose the Find/Select key sequences for
Home/End (even though it claims to emulate Xterm and this doesn't match
what actual Xterm does).
So when Home/End are used in Neovim through PuTTY with TERM=xterm (the
default setting), libtermkey finds no match for the received sequences
in the terminfo database and defaults to reporting them as <Find> and
<Select> respectively.
PuTTY is not unique here -- tmux *also* sends ESC[1~ and ESC[4~ after
its internal translation -- but the difference is that 'tmux' terminfo
correctly maps them to Home/End so Neovim recognizes them as such, while
PuTTY defaults to using 'xterm' which uses a different mapping.
This initial patch only allows Neovim to recognize <Find> and <Select>
key codes as themselves, so that the user could manually map them e.g.
using ":imap <Find> <Home>".
Alternatives:
- Using TERM=putty(-256color) would of course be the most correct
solution, but in practice it leads to other minor issues, e.g. the
need to have different PuTTY config profiles for older or non-Linux
systems that lack that terminfo, or tmux's insistence on rendering
italics as reverse.
- Using Neovim through tmux avoids the problem (as tmux recognizes
ESC[1~ on input), but is something that needs to be manually run
every time.
The keycodes.h constants are slightly misnamed because K_SELECT was
already taken for a different purpose.
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: has('bsd') is true for GNU/Hurd
Solution: exclude GNU/Hurd from BSD feature flag
(Zhaoming Luo)
GNU/Hurd, like Mac OS X, is a BSD-based system. It should exclude
has('bsd') feature just like what Mac OS X does. The __GNU__ pre-defined
macro indicates it's compiled for GNU/Hurd.

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.

Problem: vim_strnchr() is strange and unnecessary (after v9.1.1009)
Solution: Remove vim_strnchr() and use memchr() instead. Also remove a
comment referencing an #if that is no longer present.
vim_strnchr() is strange in several ways:
- It's named like vim_strchr(), but unlike vim_strchr() it doesn't
support finding a multibyte char.
- Its logic is similar to vim_strbyte(), but unlike vim_strbyte() it
uses char instead of char_u.
- It takes a pointer as its size argument, which isn't convenient for
all its callers.
- It allows embedded NULs, unlike other "strn*" functions which stop
when encountering a NUL byte.
In comparison, memchr() also allows embedded NULs, and it converts bytes
in the string to (unsigned char).

Problem: SpotBugs compiler can be improved
Solution: runtime(compiler): Improve defaults and error handling for
SpotBugs; update test_compiler.vim (Aliaksei Budavei)
runtime(compiler): Improve defaults and error handling for SpotBugs
* Keep "spotbugs#DefaultPreCompilerTestAction()" defined but
do not assign its Funcref to the "PreCompilerTestAction"
key of "g:spotbugs_properties": there are no default and
there can only be introduced arbitrary "*sourceDirPath"
entries; therefore, this assignment is confusing at best,
given that the function's implementation delegates to
whatever "PreCompilerAction" is.
* Allow for the possibility of relative source pathnames
passed as arguments to Vim for the Javac default actions,
and the necessity to have them properly reconciled when
the current working directory is changed.
* Do not expect users to remember or know that new source
files ‘must be’ ":argadd"'d to be then known to the Javac
default actions; so collect the names of Java-file buffers
and Java-file Vim arguments; and let users providing the
"@sources" file-lists in the "g:javac_makeprg_params"
variable update these file-lists themselves.
* Strive to not leave behind a fire-once Syntax ":autocmd"
for a Java buffer whenever an arbitrary pre-compile action
errors out.
* Only attempt to run a post-compiler action in the absence
of failures for a pre-compiler action. Note that warnings
and failures are treated alike (?!) by the Javac compiler,
so when previews are tried out with "--enable-preview",
remember about passing "-Xlint:-preview" too to also let
SpotBugs have a go.
* Properly group conditional operators when testing for key
entries in a user-defined variable.
* Also test whether "javaExternal" is defined when choosing
an implementation for source-file parsing.
* Two commands are provided to toggle actions for buffer-local
autocommands:
- SpotBugsRemoveBufferAutocmd;
- SpotBugsDefineBufferAutocmd.
For example, try this from "~/.vim/after/ftplugin/java.vim":
------------------------------------------------------------
if exists(':SpotBugsDefineBufferAutocmd') == 2
SpotBugsDefineBufferAutocmd BufWritePost SigUSR1
endif
------------------------------------------------------------
And ":doautocmd java_spotbugs User" can be manually used at will.

Problem: Cannot control cursor positioning of getchar().
Solution: Add "cursor" flag to {opts}, with possible values "hide",
"keep" and "msg".
related: vim/vim#10603closes: vim/vim#16569edf0f7db28
When given, only that range will be checked for validity rather than the
entire tree. This is used in the highlighter to save CPU cycles since we
only need to parse a certain region at a time anyway.
Problem: getchar() can't distinguish between C-I and Tab.
Solution: Add {opts} to pass extra flags to getchar() and getcharstr(),
with "number" and "simplify" keys.

**Problem:** Currently, if users want to efficiently disable injections,
they have to delete the injection query files at their runtime path.
This is because we only check for existence of the files before running
the query over the entire buffer.
**Solution:** Check for existence of query files, *and* that those files
actually have captures. This will allow users to just comment out
existing queries (or better yet, just add their own injection query to
`~/.config/nvim` which contains only comments) to disable running the
query over the entire buffer (a potentially slow operation)
Problem: Right aligned virtual text can cover up buffer text if virtual
text is too long
Solution: An additional option for `virt_text_pos` called
`eol_right_align` has been added to truncate virtual text if it would
have otherwise covered up buffer text. This ensures the virtual text
extends no further left than EOL.
Problem: setting `loclist = true` makes `on_list` being ignored. This
was not a problem before, but with `vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol` using
`loclist = true` as default it is needed to explicitly pass `loclist =
false` in order to use custom `on_list`.
Solution: prefer `on_list` over `loclist` and document the latter as
taking effect only in the default handler.
Problem: Combined highlighting was not applied to nvim_eval_statusline(),
and 'statuscolumn' sign segment/numhl highlights.
Solution: Add an additional `groups` element to the return value of
`nvim_eval_statusline()->highlights`. This is an array of stacked
highlight groups (highest priority last). Also resolve combined
highlights for the 'statuscolumn' sign segment/numhl highlights.
Expose/synchronize some drawline.c logic that is now mimicked in
three different places.
This has been possible in the "backend" for a while but
API was missing.
Followup: we will need a `details2=true` mode for `nvim_get_hl_id_by_name`
to return information in a way forward compatible with even further
enhancements.
