Problem: The eval.c file is too big.
Solution: Move code related to variables to evalvars.c. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4868)
0522ba0359
Name the new file eval/vars.c instead.
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: Not easy to get mark en cursor posotion by character count.
Solution: Add functions that use character index. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,
closesvim/vim#7648)
6f02b00bb0
Problem: Giving error messages is not flexible.
Solution: Add semsg(). Change argument from "char_u *" to "char *", also
for msg() and get rid of most MSG macros. (Ozaki Kiichi, closes
vim/vim#3302) Also make emsg() accept a "char *" argument. Get rid of
an enormous number of type casts.

* refactor: format with uncrustify
* fixup(dundar): fix functions comments
* fixup(dundar): remove space between variable and ++/--
* fixup(dundar): better workaround for macro attributes
This is done to be able to better use uncrustify rules for macros
* fixup(justin): make preprocessors follow neovim style guide
Problem: Items in a list given to :const can still be modified.
Solution: Work like ":lockvar! name" but don't lock referenced items.
Make locking a blob work.

Problem: Negative index doesn't work for Blob.
Solution: Make it work, add a test. (closesvim/vim#3856)

Leave tv_blob_get()'s return type untouched.
Problem: Code for Blob not sufficiently tested.
Solution: Add more tests. Fix uncovered crash. Add test_null_blob().
c0f5a78c15
eval0 and ex_echo's emsg-specific changes have already been ported.
These tests uncover another crash that was fixed in v8.1.0738.
Problem: Cannot handle binary data.
Solution: Add the Blob type. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#3638)
6e5ea8d2a9
Nvim-specific Blob conversions are implemented in future commits.
Refactor write_blob() to use a FileDescriptor, as f_writefile() was
refactored to use one (does not apply to read_blob()).
Use var_check_lock() in f_add() for Blobs from v8.1.0897.
Add a modeline to test_blob.vim and fix some doc typos.
Include if_perl.txt's VIM::Blob() documentation. Interestingly, this
function already worked before this port, as it just returns a Blob
string literal, not an actual Blob object.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.0741: viminfo with Blob is not tested
Problem: Viminfo with Blob is not tested.
Solution: Extend the viminfo test. Fix reading a blob. Fixed storing a
special variable value.

vim-patch:8.1.1022: may use NULL pointer when out of memory
Problem: May use NULL pointer when out of memory. (Coverity)
Solution: Check for blob_alloc() returning NULL.

Problem: Obvious mistakes are accepted as valid expressions.
Solution: Be more strict about parsing numbers. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto,
closesvim/vim#3981)
16e9b85113
Update vim_str2nr_spec.lua to add more tests that use strict = true.
