Problem: inline word diff treats multibyte chars as word char
(after 9.1.1243)
Solution: treat all non-alphanumeric characters as non-word characters
(Yee Cheng Chin)
Previously inline word diff simply used Vim's definition of keyword to
determine what is a word, which leads to multi-byte character classes
such as emojis and CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) characters all
classifying as word characters, leading to entire sentences being
grouped as a single word which does not provide meaningful information
in a diff highlight.
Fix this by treating all non-alphanumeric characters (with class number
above 2) as non-word characters, as there is usually no benefit in using
word diff on them. These include CJK characters, emojis, and also
subscript/superscript numbers. Meanwhile, multi-byte characters like
Cyrillic and Greek letters will still continue to considered as words.
Note that this is slightly inconsistent with how words are defined
elsewhere, as Vim usually considers any character with class >=2 to be
a "word".

Problem: filetype: Power Query files are not recognized
Solution: detect '*.pq' as pq filetype, include pq syntax and filetype
plugin (Anarion Dunedain)
Microsoft Power Query provides a powerful data import experience that
encompasses many features. Power Query works with desktop Analysis
Services, Excel, and Power BI workbooks, in addition to many online
services, such as Fabric, Power BI service, Power Apps, Microsoft 365
Customer Insights, and more. A core capability of Power Query is to
filter and combine, that is, to mash-up data from one or more of a rich
collection of supported data sources. Any such data mashup is expressed
using the Power Query M formula language. The M language is a
functional, case sensitive language similar to F#.

Problem: Currently vim.hl.range only allows one timed highlight.
Creating another one, removes the old one.
Solution: vim.hl.range now returns a timer and a function. The timer
keeps track of how much time is left in the highlight and the function
allows you to clear it, letting the user decide what to do with old
highlights.
Problem: filetype: dax files are not recognized
Solution: detect "*.dax" as dax filetype, include dax filetype and
syntax plugin (Anarion Dunedain)
Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is a formula expression language used in
Analysis Services, Power BI, and Power Pivot in Excel. DAX formulas
include functions, operators, and values to perform advanced
calculations and queries on data in related tables and columns in
tabular data models.

These occurrences also accept string, which is used like in getline.
Also make the lnum field of vim.fn.sign_placelist.list.item optional, as it can
be omitted like vim.fn.sign_place.dict's.
Problem:
If a config name contains "*" it causes rtp discovery of `lsp/` to
consider the `*` as a wildcard and could lead to strange and unintended
behaviour. For example, accessing the `'*'` config from a `lsp/` file
would cause an infinite loop.
Solution:
- Explicitly disallow a config name from containing wildcards, with the
exception of `'*'`.
- When Resolving `'*'` config, skip the rtp step.
Problem:
Some language servers do not work properly without a workspace folder.
Solution:
Add `workspace_required`, which skips starting the lsp client if no
workspace folder is found.

Problem:
Nvim needlessly requests inlay_hints even if they are disabled for a given buffer.
Solution:
Add the missing `enabled` check in `on_refresh`.
Rest of the code has this check already so that's the only needed one to fix this.
Problem:
:checkhealth shows a confusing message if user sets
g:loaded_python3_provider=1.
Solution:
- Show a warning if that var is set to 1.
- Update provider modules to default to 0. Any user code that is
checking for 1, is like already broken because these may be set to 2.
Remove the `set_timeout` functions for `TSParser` and instead add a timeout
parameter to the regular parse function. Remove these deprecated tree-sitter
API functions and replace them with the preferred `TSParseOptions` style.

Problem
When calling `:checkhealth vim.lsp` after the user has enabled a language
server with `vim.lsp.enable` that has no configuration a runtime error
is hit because the code expects for a configuration to exist.
Solution:
Check if a configuration was returned before parsing it, if it isn't
returned then warn the user that the server has been enabled but a
configuration was not found.
Simplify the logic for retrieving the injection ranges for the language
tree. The trees are now also sorted by starting position, regardless of
whether they are part of a combined injection or not. This would be
helpful if ranges are ever to be stored in an interval tree or other
kind of sorted tree structure.
Problem: Diff mode's inline highlighting is lackluster. It only
performs a line-by-line comparison, and calculates a single
shortest range within a line that could encompass all the
changes. In lines with multiple changes, or those that span
multiple lines, this approach tends to end up highlighting
much more than necessary.
Solution: Implement new inline highlighting modes by doing per-character
or per-word diff within the diff block, and highlight only the
relevant parts, add "inline:simple" to the defaults (which is
the old behaviour)
This change introduces a new diffopt option "inline:<type>". Setting to
"none" will disable all inline highlighting, "simple" (the default) will
use the old behavior, "char" / "word" will perform a character/word-wise
diff of the texts within each diff block and only highlight the
differences.
The new char/word inline diff only use the internal xdiff, and will
respect diff options such as algorithm choice, icase, and misc iwhite
options. indent-heuristics is always on to perform better sliding.
For character highlight, a post-process of the diff results is first
applied before we show the highlight. This is because a naive diff will
create a result with a lot of small diff chunks and gaps, due to the
repetitive nature of individual characters. The post-process is a
heuristic-based refinement that attempts to merge adjacent diff blocks
if they are separated by a short gap (1-3 characters), and can be
further tuned in the future for better results. This process results in
more characters than necessary being highlighted but overall less visual
noise.
For word highlight, always use first buffer's iskeyword definition.
Otherwise if each buffer has different iskeyword settings we would not
be able to group words properly.
The char/word diffing is always per-diff block, not per line, meaning
that changes that span multiple lines will show up correctly.
Added/removed newlines are not shown by default, but if the user has
'list' set (with "eol" listchar defined), the eol character will be be
highlighted correctly for the specific newline characters.
Also, add a new "DiffTextAdd" highlight group linked to "DiffText" by
default. It allows color schemes to use different colors for texts that
have been added within a line versus modified.
This doesn't interact with linematch perfectly currently. The linematch
feature splits up diff blocks into multiple smaller blocks for better
visual matching, which makes inline highlight less useful especially for
multi-line change (e.g. a line is broken into two lines). This could be
addressed in the future.
As a side change, this also removes the bounds checking introduced to
diff_read() as they were added to mask existing logic bugs that were
properly fixed in vim/vim#16768.

Problem: Strange error with type for matchfuzzy() "camelcase".
Solution: Show the error "Invalid value for argument camelcase" instead
of "Invalid argument: camelcase" (zeertzjq).
Note that using tv_get_string() will lead to confusion, as when the
value cannot be converted to a string tv_get_string() will also give an
error about that, but "camelcase" takes a boolean, not a string. Also
don't use tv_get_string() for the "limit" argument above.

Problem: When searching for "Cur", CamelCase matches like "lCursor" score
higher than exact prefix matches like Cursor, which is
counter-intuitive (Maxim Kim).
Solution: Add a 'camelcase' option to matchfuzzy() that lets users disable
CamelCase bonuses when needed, making prefix matches rank higher.

No code change is needed in Nvim as Nvim uses expand_set_str_generic()
by default.
Originally, `:set completeopt+=fuzzy` did not affect how the candidate
list is collected in default keyword completion. A comment was added to
documentation as part of vim/vim#14912 to clarify it. vim/vim#15193 later changed the
fuzzy behavior to now change the candidate collection behavior as well
so the clarification in docs is now wrong. Remove them here.
