Useful to e.g. limit the height to the window height, avoiding unnecessary
work. Or to find out how many buffer lines beyond "start_row" take up a
certain number of logical lines (returned in "end_row" and "end_vcol").
Problem: With ':set splitkeep=screen', cursor did't restore column
correctly when splitting a window on a line longer than the
last line on the screen (after v9.1.0707)
Solution: Restore cursor column in `win_fix_scroll()` since it may be
changed in `getvcol()` after 396fd1ec2956 (phanium).
Example:
```
echo longlonglongling\nshort | vim - -u NONE --cmd 'set
splitkeep=screen' +'norm $' +new +q
```

Problem: When calling an API from Vimscript to set an option, mapping,
etc., :verbose shows that it's set from an API client.
Solution: Don't override current_sctx.sc_sid when calling an API from
Vimscript. Also fix the inverse case where API channel id is
not set when calling an API from RPC. Move channel id into
sctx_T to make saving and restoring easier.

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.

vim-patch:9.1.1102: tests: Test_WinScrolled_Resized_eiw() uses wrong filename
Problem: tests: Test_WinScrolled_Resized_eiw() uses wrong filename
(Luuk van Baal, after v9.1.1084)
Solution: Rename the filename to something more unique
bfc7719e48
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: Although patch 9.1.0990 fixed a real problem/inconsistency,
it also introduced new behavior that may break BWC and/or be
unexpected. Before 9.1.0990, window commands could make the
topframe smaller (without changing 'cmdheight'; quirk that is
now fixed), but did not allow extending the topframe beyond
the 'cmdheight' set by the user. After 9.1.0990, the user can
reduce the 'cmdheight' below the value they set explicitly,
through window commands, which may lead to confusion.
(aftere v9.1.0990)
Solution: Store the value explicitly set by the user and clamp the
'cmdheight' when resizing the topframe. This also applies to
dragging laststatus, which in contrast to window commands
_did_ allow reducing the 'cmdheight' to values below the one
set by the user. So with this patch there is still new
behavior, but I think in a way that is less surprising.
While at it, also fix a Coverity warning, introduced in
v9.1.0990 (Luuk van Baal)
c97e869535
Problem: Inconsistent behavior when changing cmdheight by resizing the
topframe through wincmds and dragging laststatus. Changing
cmdheight by resizing the topframe does not trigger OptionSet.

vim-patch:9.0.0187: command line height changes when maximizing window height
Problem: Command line height changes when maximizing window height.
Solution: Do not change the command line height. (closesvim/vim#10885)

Problem:
- API functions using `try_start` directly instead of `TRY_WRAP`, do not
surface the underlying error message, and instead show generic things
like "Failed to set buffer".
- Error handling code is duplicated in the API impl, instead of
delegating to the vim buffer/window handling logic.
Solution:
- Use `TRY_WRAP`.
"wininfo" is going to be my next victim. The main problem with wininfo
is that it is "all or nothing", i e either all state about a buffer in a
window is considered valid or none of it is. This needs to be fixed to
address some long running grievances.
For now this is just a warmup: refactor it from a linked list to a
vector.
Problem: the max value of 'cmdheight' is limited by other tabpages
Solution: Limit the maximum value of 'cmdheight' to the current tabpage only.
(Milly)
The Help says that cmdheight is local to the tab page, but says nothing
about the maximum value depending on the state of all tab pages. Users
may wonder why they can't increase cmdheight when there are still rows
available on the current tab page. This PR changes the behavior of
cmdheight so that its maximum value depends only on the state of the
current tab page.
Also, since magic numbers were embedded in various places with the
minimum value of cmdheight being 1, we defined a constant to make it
easier to understand.

Problem: Option metadata like list of valid values for an option and
option flags are not listed in the `options.lua` file and are instead
manually defined in C, which means option metadata is split between
several places.
Solution: Put metadata such as list of valid values for an option and
option flags in `options.lua`, and autogenerate the corresponding C
variables and enums.
Supersedes #28659
Co-authored-by: glepnir <glephunter@gmail.com>
Problem:
The way option scopes currently work is inflexible and does not allow for nested
option scopes or easily finding the value of an option at any arbitrary scope
without having to do long handwritten switch-case statements like in
`get_varp()`. `.indir` is also confusing and redundant since option indices for
each scope can be autogenerated.
Solution:
Expand option scopes in such a way that an option can support any amount of
scopes using a set of scope flags, similarly to how it's already done for option
types. Also make options contain information about its index at each scope it
supports. This allows for massively simplifying `get_varp()` and
`get_varp_scope()` in the future by just using a struct for options at each
scope. This would be done by creating a table that stores the offset of an
option's variable at a scope by using the option's index at that scope as a key.
This PR also autogenerates enums for option indices at each scope to remove the
need for `.indir` entirely, and also to allow easily iterating over options all
options that support any scope.

Problem: [security] use-after-free in tagstack_clear_entry
(Suyue Guo )
Solution: Instead of manually calling vim_free() on each of the tagstack
entries, let's use tagstack_clear_entry(), which will
also free the stack, but using the VIM_CLEAR macro,
which prevents a use-after-free by setting those pointers
to NULL

Problem:
Variables are often assigned multiple places in common patterns.
Solution:
Replace these common patterns with different patterns that reduce the
number of assignments.
Use `MAX` and `MIN`:
```c
if (x < y) {
x = y;
}
// -->
x = MAX(x, y);
```
```c
if (x > y) {
x = y;
}
// -->
x = MIN(x, y);
```
Use ternary:
```c
int a;
if (cond) {
a = b;
} els {
a = c;
}
// -->
int a = cond ? b : c;
```
Problem: When :edit an existing buffer, line('w$') may return a
wrong result.
Solution: Reset w_valid in curwin_init() (Jaehwang Jung)
`do_ecmd()` reinitializes the current window (`curwin_init()`) whose
`w_valid` field may have `VALID_BOTLINE` set. Resetting `w_botline`
without marking it as invalid makes subsequent `validate_botline()`
calls a no-op, thus resulting in wrong `line('w$')` value.

Problem: Renaming non-current buffer changes working directory when
'autochdir' is set.
Solution: Temporarily disable 'autochdir'. Add more tests for the
win_set_buf change.
Problem: noautocmd is confusing; despite its name, it doesn't block all
autocommands (instead it blocks only those related to setting the buffer), and
is commonly used by plugins to open windows while producing minimal
side-effects.
Solution: be consistent and block all autocommands when noautocmd is set.
This includes WinNew (again), plus autocommands from entering the window (if
enter is set) like WinEnter, WinLeave, TabEnter, .etc.
See the discussion at https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/14659#issuecomment-2040029517
for more information.
Remove win_set_buf's noautocmd argument, as it's no longer needed.
NOTE: pum_create_float_preview sets noautocmd for win_set_buf, but all its
callers already use block_autocmds.
Despite that, pum_create_float_preview doesn't actually properly handle
autocommands (it has no checks for whether those from win_enter or
nvim_create_buf free the window).
For now, ensure autocommands are blocked within it for correctness (in case it's
ever called outside of a block_autocmds context; the function seems to have been
refactored in #26739 anyway).
Problem: Autocommand may change currect directory after :tcd and :lcd.
Solution: Also clear tp_localdir and w_localdir when using aucmd_win.
