Problem: no way of getting all highlight group definitions in a namespace.
Solution: add `nvim_get_hl()`, deprecate `nvim_get_hl_by_name()` and `nvim_get_hl_by_id()`.
Problem:
semver specifies that digit sequences in a prerelease string should be
compared as numbers, not lexically: https://semver.org/#spec-item-11
> Precedence for two pre-release versions with the same major, minor,
> and patch version MUST be determined by comparing each dot separated
> identifier from left to right until a difference is found as follows:
> 1. Identifiers consisting of only digits are compared numerically.
> 2. Identifiers with letters or hyphens are compared lexically in ASCII sort order.
> 3. Numeric identifiers always have lower precedence than non-numeric identifiers.
> 4. A larger set of pre-release fields has a higher precedence than a smaller set, if all of the preceding identifiers are equal.
Example:
1.0.0-alpha < 1.0.0-alpha.1 < 1.0.0-alpha.beta < 1.0.0-beta < 1.0.0-beta.2 < 1.0.0-beta.11 < 1.0.0-rc.1 < 1.0.0.
Solution:
cmp_prerel() treats all digit sequences in a prerelease string as
numbers. This doesn't _exactly_ match the spec, which specifies that
only dot-delimited digit sequences should be treated as numbers...
Problem:
- vim.split has more features than vim.gsplit.
- Cannot inspect the "separator" segments of vim.split or vim.gsplit.
Solution:
- Move common implementation from vim.split into vim.gsplit.
- TODO: deprecate vim.split in favor of vim.totable(vim.gsplit())?
- Introduce `keepsep` parameter.

existing behavior of
:=
and
:[range]=
are unchanged. `|` is still allowed with this usage.
However,
:=p
and similar are changed in a way which could be construed as a breaking
change. Allowing |ex-flags| for := in the first place was a mistake as
any form of := DOES NOT MOVE THE CURSOR. So it would print one line number
and then print a completely different line contents after that.
Problem:
"tmux 3.2a" (output from "tmux -V") is not parsed easily.
Solution:
With `strict=false`, discard everything before the first digit.
- rename Semver => Version
- rename vim.version.version() => vim.version._version()
- rename matches() => has()
- remove `opts` from cmp()
Problem:
On Windows, :make does not display the output of the program it runs.
The cause is the default 'shellpipe'. On Linux, nvim uses `tee` to redirect the
output to both stdout and the error file. In Windows, for both cmd.exe and
powershell, the output is only redirected to the error file.
Solution:
- On Windows, change the 'shellpipe' default to "2>&1| tee".
- Nvim includes `tee` in its Windows package.
- Document recommended defaults for powershell.
Fixes#12910
Problem:
vim.treesitter.inspect_tree() and :InspectTree does not respect 'splitright'.
Solution:
- Change the default `command` from `topleft 60vnew` to `60vnew`.
- Change :InspectTree to respect command mods (`:vertical`, count, etc.).

Problem:
vim.deprecate() shows ":help deprecated" for third-party plugins. ":help
deprecated" only describes deprecations in Nvim, and is unrelated to any
3rd party deprecations.
Solution:
If `plugin` is specified, don't show ":help deprecated".

Problem:
When LSP client renames a directory, opened buffers in the edfitor are not
renamed or closed. Then `:wall` shows errors.
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/master/runtime/lua/vim/lsp/util.lua#L776
works correctly if you try to rename a single file, but doesn't delete old
buffers with `old_fname` is a dir.
Solution:
Update the logic in runtime/lua/vim/lsp/util.lua:rename()
Fixes#22617
we cannot remove 'paste'. It is very common in plugins and configs.
'pastetoggle' can and should be removed though, it's a total waste of everyone's time because it generates bug reports and doesn't work well, and is useless because bracketed-paste works better.
Problem:
The function name `vim.pretty_print`:
1. is verbose, which partially defeats its purpose as sugar
2. does not draw from existing precedent or any sort of convention
(except external projects like penlight or python?), which reduces
discoverability, and degrades signaling about best practices.
Solution:
- Rename to `vim.print`.
- Change the behavior so that
1. strings are printed without quotes
2. each arg is printed on its own line
3. tables are indented with 2 instead of 4 spaces
- Example:
:lua ='a', 'b', 42, {a=3}
a
b
42
{
a = 3
}
Comparison of alternatives:
- `vim.print`:
- pro: consistent with Lua's `print()`
- pro: aligns with potential `nvim_print` API function which will
replace nvim_echo, nvim_notify, etc.
- con: behaves differently than Lua's `print()`, slightly misleading?
- `vim.echo`:
- pro: `:echo` has similar "pretty print" behavior.
- con: inconsistent with Lua idioms.
- `vim.p`:
- pro: very short, fits with `vim.o`, etc.
- con: not as discoverable as "echo"
- con: less opportunity for `local p = vim.p` because of potential shadowing.
scroll_delta contains how much the top line of a window moved since the
last time win_viewport was emitted. It is expected to be used to
implement smooth scrolling. For this purpose it only counts "virtual" or
"displayed" so folds should count as one line. Because of this it
adds extra information that cannot be computed from the topline
parameter.
