When a file is opened by nvim with ft=man already set, and
"has('vim_starting')", ftplugin/man.vim calls
'execute 'file man://'.ref', this causes nvim to display something like
this:
````
"<name of original file>" 977, 41017C
"man://foo(1)" [Not edited] 977 lines --0%--
Press ENTER or type command to continue
````
This is annoying, because nothing of note has actually happened.
Use cases why you might want to read a man page from a file:
`MANPAGER='bash -c "nvim -c \"set ft=man\" </dev/tty <(col -bx)"' man git`
`nvim -c 'set ft=man' <(man -P cat git)`

In Vim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
works because for both system() and :! Vim writes input to a temp file and uses
shell syntax to redirect the file to the backgrounded `cat` (get_cmd_output()
.. make_filter_cmd()).
In Nvim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
fails because we write the input directly via pipes (shell.c:do_os_system()),
but (per POSIX[1]) backgrounded process input stream is redirected from
/dev/null (unless overridden by shell redirection; supported only by some shells
[2]), so our writes are ignored, the process exits quickly, and if we are
writing data larger than the buffer size we'll see EPIPE.
This still works:
:%w !tee > foo1358.txt &
but this does not:
:%w !tee foo1358.txt &
though it *should* (why doesn't it?) because we still do the temp file dance
in do_bang() .. do_filter().

These tests are essentially affirming a regression vs Vim. In Vim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
returns "foo", because Vim internally wraps the command with shell-specific
syntax to redirect the streams from /dev/null[1].
That can't work in Nvim because we use pipes directly (instead of temp files)
and don't wrap the command with shell-specific redirection syntax.

`:CheckHealth nvim` would always report an outdated manifest if symlinks were
used, because the manifest file contains unresolved paths that get compared
against resolved paths.
Now we resolve paths before they get written to the manifest file.
If multiple versions of a package are installed, the provider health check could
choose a wrong path:
/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/neovim-0.1.10-py3.5.egg-info/PKG-INFO
/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/neovim-0.1.9-py3.5.egg-info/PKG-INFO
Prior to this change :CheckHealth could falsely show 0.1.9 as the installed
version, since glob() doesn't enforce any predictable order.
Now we sort all potential paths numerically in descending order and just look at
the first path instead.
Problem: Cannot use a window ID where a window number is expected.
Solution: Add LOWEST_WIN_ID, so that the window ID can be used where a
number is expected.

Problem: Non-GUI specific settings in the gvimrc_example file.
Solution: Move some settings to the vimrc_example file. Remove setting
'hlsearch' again. (suggested by Hirohito Higashi)

Problem: Although emoji characters are ambiguous width, best is to treat
them as full width.
Solution: Update the Unicode character tables. Add the 'emoji' options.

`deprecated.txt` is a place for deprecated tags to live.
- Encourages aggressive documentation of deprecations without cluttering
the main help files.
- Provides a single browsable reference of all deprecations.
Other changes:
- Move tags to doc/vim_diff.txt.
- Remove doc/quotes.txt. It has little historical value, except maybe the
Larry Wall quote.
