Problem: vim._extui unconditionally creates windows, buffers and the
Vimscript cmdline highlighter when it is first loaded.
Solution: Schedule first creation of the window so that first redraw
happens sooner (still need to create at least the cmdline
window asap as it can have a different highlight through
hl-MsgArea; thus further delaying until the first event that
needs a particular target seems redundant). Load the cmdline
highlighter on the first cmdline_show event.
Problem: ext_messages cannot tell when the screen was cleared, which is
needed to clear visible messages. An empty message is also
never emitted, but clears messages from the message grid.
Solution: Repurpose the "msg_clear" event to be emitted when the screen
was cleared. Emit an empty message with the `empty` kind to
hint to a UI to clear the cmdline area.
In https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/34092 we changed the
healthcheck to display root markers as a concatenated list if the first
item in root_markers is a string (not a table). However, this does not
solve the general case, because root_markers can contain a string as the
first element, but a table as the 2nd element.
Because root_markers has a more complex structure we should always just
display it using vim.inspect, rather than adding a special case for when
all items are a string.
- Render Lua types in api.txt.
- Added `DictAs(name)` API type which acts the same as `Dict` (no parens)
when generating the dispatchers, but acts the same as `Dict(name)`
when generating docs.
- Added `Tuple(...)` API type which is the treated the as `Array` for
generating the dispatchers, but is used to document richer types.
- Added `Enum(...)` API type to better document enums
- Improve typing of some API functions.
- Improve c_grammar to properly parse API types and replace string pattern
logic in the parsers.
- Removed all the hardcoded type overrides in gen_eval_files.lua
Usually, Vim's document provides example code after explanations.
However some part of the editing.txt doesn't follow the style, therefore
this commit modifies it so that it follows the usual style.

Problem:
In setup_env, some needed logic is bypassed when clear_env=true.
Solution:
Drop the early return in setup_env().

Problem: ext_messages is implemented to mimic the message grid
implementation w.r.t. scrolling messages, clearing scrolled
messages, hit-enter-prompts and replacing a previous message.
Meanwhile, an ext_messages UI may not be implemented in a way
where these events are wanted. Moreover, correctness of these
events even assuming a "scrolled message" implementation
depends on fragile "currently visible messages" global state,
which already isn't correct after a previous message was
supposed to have been overwritten (because that should not only
happen when `msg_scroll == false`).
Solution: - No longer attempt to keep track of the currently visible
messages: remove the `msg_ext(_history)_visible` variables.
UIs may remove messages pre-emptively (timer based), or never
show messages that don't fit a certain area in the first place.
- No longer emit the `msg(_history)_clear` events to clear
"scrolled" messages. This opens up the `msg_clear` event to
be emitted when messages should actually be cleared (e.g.
when the screen is cleared). May also be useful to emit before
the first message in an event loop cycle as a hint to the UI
that it is a new batch of messages (vim._extui currently
schedules an event to determine that).
- Set `replace_last` explicitly at the few callsites that want
this to be set to true to replace an incomplete status message.
- Don't store a "keep" message to be re-emitted.
Problem:
Not easy to get user-input in prompt-buffer before the user submits the
input. Under the current system user/plugin needs to read the buffer
contents, figure out where the prompt is, then extract the text.
Solution:
- Add prompt_getinput().
- Extract prompt text extraction logic to a separate function
Remove unmatchable :normal {mark,register} matches. The arg to :normal
is now handled separately and contained marks and registers are no
longer matched.

Problem: inconsistent range arg for :diffget/diffput
Solution: fix the range specification, place the cursor for :diffput and
:diffget consistently on the last line (Yee Cheng Chin)
Previously, `:<range>diffget` only allowed using 1 or above in the range
value, making it impossible to use the command for a diff block at the
beginning of the file. Fix the range specification so the user can now
use 0 to specify the space before the first line. This allows
`:0,$+1diffget` to work to retrieve all the changes from the other file
instead of missing the first diff block. Also do this for `:diffput`.
Also, make `:diffput` work more similar to `:diffget`. Make it so that
if the cursor is on the last line and a new line is inserted in the
other file, doing `:diffput` will select that diff block below the line,
just like `:diffget` would.
Also clean up the logic a little bit for edge cases and for handling
line matched diff blocks better.

Problem: UI buffers may be 'unmodifiable' and use a 'swapfile'.

**Problem:** When enabling document_color multiple times for the same
buffer (or when toggling it on and off), duplicate autocmds are created
since the previous ones are not cleared.
**Solution:** Clear the appropriate buffer-local autocmds when
enabling/disabling document color functionality.

- Since Nvim 0.5, package.path and package.cpath don't include

Problem:
In LSP configs, the function form of `cmd()` cannot easily get the
resolved root dir (workspace). One of the main use-cases of a dynamic
`cmd()` is to be able to start a new server whose binary may be located
*in the workspace* ([example](https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/pull/3912)).
Compare `reuse_client()`, which also receives the resolved config.
Solution:
Pass the resolved config to `cmd()`.

Problem:
Cannot enter multiline prompts in a buftype=prompt buffer.
Solution:
- Support shift+enter (`<s-enter>`) to start a new line in the prompt.
- Pasting multiline text via OS paste, clipboard, "xp, etc.
- A/I in editable region works as usual.
- i/a/A/I outside of editable region moves cursor to end of current
prompt.
- Support undo/redo in prompt buffer.
- Support o/O in prompt buffer.
- Expose prompt location as `':` mark.
