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.
Problem:
Incremental preview is not allowed on 'nomodifiable' buffers.
Solution:
- Allow preview on 'nomodifiable' buffers.
- Restore the 'modifiable' option in case the preview function changes it.
Problem: filetype: setting bash filetype is backwards incompatible
Solution: revert patch v9.1.0965, detect bash scripts again as sh
filetype

If there is no prefix (e.g. at the start of word boundary or a line), it
always used the `filterText` because the `match` function always
returned false.
Problem:
Calling `xstrdup` with a NULL pointer causes a SIGSEGV if `lua_tostring` returns
NULL in `nlua_luv_thread_common_cfpcall`.
Crash stack trace:
- `_platform_strlen` → `xstrdup` (memory.c:469)
- `nlua_luv_thread_common_cfpcall` (executor.c:281)
Solution:
Check if `lua_tostring` returns NULL and pass NULL to `event_create` to avoid the crash.
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.
This commit adds basic support for the kitty keyboard protocol to
Neovim's builtin terminal. For now only the first mode ("Disambiguate
escape codes") is supported.
Problem: Vim9: Regression caused by patch v9.1.0646

vim-patch:8.2.4176: Vim9: cannot use imported function with call()

Problem: If a (vim.ui_attach) cmdline_hide callback triggers a redraw,
it may cause cmdline_show events for an already exited cmdline.
Solution: Avoid emitting cmdline_show event when ccline.cmdbuff is
already NULL. Unset ccline.cmdbuff before emitting cmdline_hide.
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.
On master (and also before #31539) closing a window could cause the
used wininfo for a buffer to change. This is due to always removing the
previous NULL wininfo when deleting a window, even if that wininfo had
higher priority than the the deleted window's own wininfo.
Instead delete the wininfo with lowest priority. This retains the memory
saving efect while not affecting the effective value of window options
and so on.
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 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.
The code represents a useful pattern in normal mode where remapping
`<tab>` will implicitly also remap `<c-i>` unless you remap that
explicitly. This relies on the _unmapped_ behavior being identical which
is not true in terminal mode, as vterm can distinguish these keys.
Vim seems to entangle this with kitty keyboard mode detection which
is irrelevant for us. Conditional fallbacks depending on
keyboard mode could be done completely inside `vterm/` without getchar.c
getting involved, I would think.
Problem: Popup menu internal error with some abbr in completion item.
Solution: Don't compute attributes when there is no corresponding text.
Reduce indent in pum_redraw() while at it (zeertzjq).

**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:
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`.
If a "on_lines" callback changes the structure of the marktree, the
iterator (which is used for an entire window viewport) might now
point to invalid memory. Restore the iterator to the beginning of the
line in this case.
