Problem:
Nvim fails to create tempfile "…/nvim6UJx04/7" when 'shell' is set to
pwsh (PowerShell Core). This breaks filtered shell commands ":{range}!".
With shell set to cmd, it works.
Solution:
PowerShell doesn't use "<" for stdin redirection. Instead, use
"-RedirectStandardInput".
Closes#15913
feat(server): introduce $NVIM
PROBLEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS has conflicting purposes as both a parameter ("the
current process should listen on this address") and a descriptor ("the
current process is a child of this address").
This contradiction means the presence of NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS is
ambiguous, so child Nvim always tries to listen on its _parent's_
socket. This is the cause of lots of "Failed to start server" spam in
our test/CI logs:
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-4480-0
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-2168-0
SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Set $NVIM to the parent v:servername, *only* in child processes.
- Now the correct way to detect a "parent" Nvim is to check for $NVIM.
2. Do NOT set $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS in child processes.
3. On startup if $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS exists, unset it immediately after
server init.
4. Open a channel to parent automatically, expose it as v:parent.

Problem: Some users do not want a line comment always inserted.
Solution: Add the '/' flag to 'formatoptions' to not repeat the comment
leader after a statement when using "o".

Problem: "P" in Visual mode still changes some registers.
Solution: Make "P" in Visual mode not change any register. (Shougo

(cherry picked from commit 28c74ef687)
The default value of including F in 'shortmess' has the unfortunate side
effect of hiding output from autocommands. This is a common source of
confusion and often leads people to think their autocommands are not
working when they are. There is a small snippet in the docs for
'shortmess' indicating that the F flag suppresses autocmd output, but
it's not easy to find if you don't already know to look for it.
This commit removes that behavior of the F flag to make it only suppress
file info when opening a new file.

Problem: Cannot add a digraph with a leading space. It is not easy to list
existing digraphs.
Solution: Add setdigraph(), setdigraphlist(), getdigraph() and
getdigraphlist(). (closesvim/vim#8580)
6106504e9e
Use GA_APPEND_VIA_PTR in registerdigraph().
Use tv_list_append_*() in getdigraphlist_appendpair().
Put the error messages in digraph.c.
E196 is N/A.
Remove mentions about 'encoding' being non-Unicode.
Nvim doesn't support setting encoding=japan, so skip a test.
Problem: Plugins cannot track text scrolling.
Solution: Add the WinScrolled event. (closesvim/vim#10102)

Skip User event in autocmd.txt, not needed unless #10689 is reverted.
Problem: ">" marker sometimes not displayed in the jumplist.
Solution: If the buffer no longer exists show "-invalid-". (Christian
Brabandt, closesvim/vim#10131, closesvim/vim#10100)

Add a modeline to test_jumplist.vim
Update runtime files
cbaff5e06e
Docs only.
Omit json_encode (different impl, Nvim throws E474 instead; see v8.2.4695).
Skip <MouseMove> (Nvim *kinda* has <MouseMove>, but most of this doc needs
v8.2.4674 anyway...).
Nvim's 'hidden' doc was reworded somewhat, so manually integrate the changes
(8331cd13c4).
Also apply "comma-separated" changes to all possible places in options.txt.
Cherry-pick *highlight-clear* tag from v8.2.3578.
Problem: A pattern that matches the cursor position is bit complicated.
Solution: Use a dot to indicate the cursor line and column. (Christian
Brabandt, closesvim/vim#8497, closesvim/vim#8179)

Also use `n = ++vcol` in regexp_bt.c as `++vcol` alone fails lint.
helpers.source() was a hack to work around the lack of anonymous
:source. Its "create tempfile" behavior is not a required part of most
tests that use it.
Some tests still need the old "create tempfile" behavior either because
they test SID behavior, or because of missing nvim_exec features: #16071
vim.tbl_get takes a table with subsequent string arguments (variadic) that
index into the table. If the value pointed to by the set of keys exists,
the function returns the value. If the set of keys does not exist, the
function returns nil.
