Problem:
In autocmd examples, using "args" as the event-object name is vague and
may be confused with a user-command.
Solution:
Use "ev" as the conventional event-object name.
fix(treesitter): more distinctive highlight for EditQuery captures
Problem: EditQuery shows captures in the source buffer using the Title
highlight group, which could be too similar to Normal.
Solution: Use a virtual text diagnostic highlight group: they are
displayed in a similar manner to the query captures so we can assume
that the color scheme should have appropriate styling applied to make
them visible.
**Problem:** Whenever `LanguageTree:parse()` is called, injection trees
from previously parsed ranges are dropped.
**Solution:** Allow the function to accept a list of ranges, so it can
return injection trees for all the given ranges.

This commit changes `languagetree.lua` so that it creates a scratch
buffer under the hood when dealing with string parsers. This will make
it much easier to just use extmarks whenever we need to track injection
trees in `languagetree.lua`. This also allows us to remove the
`treesitter.c` code for parsing a string directly.
Note that the string parser's scratch buffer has `set noeol nofixeol` so
that the parsed source exactly matches the passed in string.
Problem:
Generated docs sections are ordered randomly. This matters when showing
an outline or table of contents (e.g. `gO`).
Solution:
Specify which sections have an intentional ordering; sort the rest by
name.
Problem:
`:EditQuery` command accepts a language argument, but it doesn't
highlight properly for injected languages.
Solution:
- Fully parse with the root language and then filter the query on the
child trees that are of the language requested.
- Also support completion (`EditQuery <tab>`).
Problem:
- Running `:h :EditQuery` throws error `E149: Sorry, no help for
:EditQuery`
- vim_diff.txt miss an entry for `:EditQuery`
Solution:
- Make tag `[:EditQuery]()` right-aligned, similar to command `:Open`
- Update vim_diff.txt
This commit changes the `offset!` directive so that instead of setting a
`metadata.range` value for the entire pattern, it will set a
`metadata.offset` value. This offset will be applied to the range only
in `vim.treesitter.get_range()`, rather than at directive application
time. This allows the offset to be applied to any and all nodes captured
by the given pattern, and removes the requirement that `#offset!` be
applied to only a single node.
The downside of this change is that plugins which read from
`metadata.range` may be thrown off course, but such plugins should
prefer `vim.treesitter.get_range()` when retrieving ranges anyway.
Note that `#trim!` still sets `metadata.range`, and
`vim.treesitter.get_range()` still reads from `metadata.range`, if it
exists.
Before, only the last capture's range would be counted for injection.
Now all captured ranges will be counted in the ranges array. This is
more intuitive, and also provides a nice solution/alternative to the
"scoped injections" issue.
- sort fields alphabetically.
- in the `vim.lsp.Client` docs, reference `vim.lsp.ClientConfig` instead
of duplicating its docs.
- cleanup lots of redundant-yet-drifted field docs.
This matches the `iter_captures` functionality to the `iter_matches`
functionality, allowing it to specify a match limit and start depth for
the query iterator.
Problem: Cannot disable individual captures and patterns in treesitter queries.
Solution:
* Expose the corresponding tree-sitter API functions for `TSQuery` object.
* Add documentation for `TSQuery`.
* Return the pattern ID from `get_captures_at_pos()` (and hence `:Inspect!`).
**Problem:** Some weird languages have different comment syntax
depending on the location in the code, and we do not have a way to
determine the correct `commentstring` for these special cases.
**Solution:** Allow queries to specify `commentstring` values in
metadata, allowing users/`nvim-treesitter` to provide a better
commenting experience without hugely increasing the scope of the code in
core.
Problem: No way to check the version of a treesitter parser.
Solution: Add version metadata (ABI 15 parsers only) as well as parser state count and supertype information (ABI 15) in `vim.treesitter.language.inspect()`. Also graduate the `abi_version` field, as this is now the official upstream name.

Problem:
Descriptions are somewhat vague. nvim_set_current_line modifies contents
but nvim_set_current_buf does not, etc.
Solution:
- Make it clear that these functions accept or return a winid/tabid by
linking to that concept in help.
- Only these few files use the term "handles", so replace them with the
more conventional terminology.
- Add a new help section for tab-ID. This concept is unique to neovim
because vim exposes tabnr, but not tab handles. This section is
modelled after `:h winid`.
TSHighlighter now places marks for conceal_lines metadata. A new
internal decor provider callback _on_conceal_line was added that
instructs the highlighter to place conceal_lines marks whenever the
editor needs to know whether a line is concealed. The bundled markdown
queries use conceal_lines metadata to conceal code block fence lines.
When given, only that range will be checked for validity rather than the
entire tree. This is used in the highlighter to save CPU cycles since we
only need to parse a certain region at a time anyway.
**Problem:** Currently, if users want to efficiently disable injections,
they have to delete the injection query files at their runtime path.
This is because we only check for existence of the files before running
the query over the entire buffer.
**Solution:** Check for existence of query files, *and* that those files
actually have captures. This will allow users to just comment out
existing queries (or better yet, just add their own injection query to
`~/.config/nvim` which contains only comments) to disable running the
query over the entire buffer (a potentially slow operation)
Problem:
`yx` uses "y" prefix, which shadows a builtin operator.
Solution:
Use `g=` (in the form of `g==` currently), drawing from precedent of
CTRL-= and 'tpope/vim-scriptease'.
**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:** Currently, it is difficult to get node(s)-level metadata
for a capture returned by `get_captures_at_pos()`. This is because it is
stored in `metadata[id]` and we do not have access to the value of `id`,
so to get this value we have to iterate over the keys of `metadata`. See
[this commit](d636229300 (diff-8bd4742121c2f359d0345f3c6c253a58220f1a28670cc4e1c957992232059a6cR16)).
Things would be much simpler if we were given the `id` of the capture so
we could use it to just index `metadata` directly.
**Solution:** Include `id` in the data returned by
`get_captures_at_pos()`
This commit also implements more generic trimming, acting on all
whitespace (charwise) rather than just empty lines.
It will unblock
https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/pull/3442 and allow
for properly concealing markdown bullet markers regardless of indent
width, e.g.
Problem: Treesitter highlighter implements an on_bytes callback that
just re-marks a buffer range for redraw. The edit that
prompted the callback will already have done that.
Solution: Remove redundant on_bytes callback from the treesitter
highlighter module.
