Vim patches for Vim help files must use Vim tags as diff hunk header
to reliably detect if a hunk is N/A or not.
Git does not know which files are Vim help files
so that it can use custom "diff.<filetype>.xfuncname" regexp
to create the header.
Update Neovim's gitattributes to detect Vim help files
and then use it on vim-patch.sh to scan Vim patches.
Add non-function tags from ":h vim_diff"
to detect N/A Vim runtime patches.
Problem: `:browse edit` (and variants) without an argument fails instead
of opening a browser.
Solution: Dispatch to dir.lua using the cwd as the implied directory.
Replace the inherited GUI-only documentation with the supported
behavior. Support vsplit, split, tabedit variants.
Problem: Memory leak when a spell file has an SN_SAL section before an
SN_SOFO section: set_sofo() reuses sl_sal without freeing the
salitem_T entries left by read_sal_section() (after v9.2.0846).
Solution: Factor the SAL free loop into free_sal_items() and call it
before set_sofo() reuses sl_sal.

Problem: [security]: heap buffer overflow in set_sofo()
(Yazan Balawneh)
Solution: Reset sl_sal_first (Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
A crafted spell file with an empty SN_SAL section before an SN_SOFO
section reaches set_sofo() with sl_sal_first[] already set to -1 by
set_sal_first(). The counting loop then under-counts colliding
multi-byte "from" characters, allocates an undersized list and writes
past its end.

Problem: When a tagfunc returns a "cmd" that is neither a line number nor
a search pattern, the tag entry is corrupted: the "kind" field is
lost and taglist() returns a mangled "cmd".
Solution: Accept any Ex command in "cmd" as in a tags file, terminate a
generic command with a bar so the trailing fields are preserved,
and reject a value that cannot be stored in a tag line with E987
(Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: [security]: arbitrary Ex command execution during C
omni-completion (Threonine)
Solution: Match tags typeref literally to block Ex command injection
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
Escaping only "/" and "\" left the typeref able to break out of the
:vimgrep pattern without a "/": an unclosed "[" makes vimgrep's pattern
skipping fail, and the parser then treats a following "|" as a command
separator, so the tag value runs as Ex commands during C omni-completion.
Match the field literally with \V so no regex metacharacter can affect
pattern parsing.

Problem: scripts/genappimage.sh runs `make` with no extra flags and
emits a fixed nvim-linux-<arch>.appimage filename, so packaging a
variant build (e.g. with the bundled PUC-Rio Lua interpreter)
requires editing the Makefile or post-renaming the AppImage, which
breaks the AppImage zsync URL.
Solution: forward DEPS_CMAKE_FLAGS and CMAKE_EXTRA_FLAGS to `make`,
accept OUTPUT so the AppImage (and its zsync Filename:) follows the
caller's chosen name, and mark CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME as CACHE
STRING on Linux so the resulting tarball/deb follow as well. Default
behavior is unchanged when none of these env vars are set.
Changes:
- Removed the blank line before the first healthcheck header.
- Fixed a bug where the entire "Terminal" section of `vim.health` would
not appear if the `infocmp` executable was not found.
- Fixed a typo in `vim.lsp` when displaying the LSP log level.
"vim-patch.sh -L" includes gpg signature for "log.showSignature=true"
in user's .gitconfig.
vim-patch.sh expects no signature for 1-line output per patch.
The parent commit made a valiant effort to store "dict options" in their
reified form, but this is more trouble than it's worth:
- inconsistent model for developers to understand.
- string lifetime issues (the "varp" convention is to pass around an
aliased, long-lived option value).
- lots of extra plumbing to deal with the 2 different option-storage
paradigms.
Problem:
Options parsing is still painful for dict-style options.
Solution:
schema-maxxing => better `opt:get()` (will be the basis for `vim.o()`),
unified (and more-detailed) err msgs.
- Drop bespoke structure-builder in `_core/options.lua`.
- Define `schema` for all non-primitive options (except 'guicursor' and
statusline-style options); generate reified keysets `OptKeyDict`).
- Generate 'fillchars' => `fcs_tab`, 'listchars' => `lcs_tab`.
- `nvim_set_option_value`:
- Return the improved structures. Also from `vim.opt.x:get()`.
- Eliminate api <=> lua roundtrip, centralize option structure
handling.
- Improve/unify errors.
- Bump ERR_BUFLEN 80 → 256 so the "one of" list isn't truncated.
- Eliminate old 'diffopt' order-dependence (`iwhiteall` before `iwhite`)
Error samples:
Typed-key path (opt_strings_check → diffopt/mousescroll/breakindentopt):
E474: Unknown item 'foo'
E474: 'context' requires a number
E474: 'ver' number is out of range
E474: 'algorithm' must be one of: myers, minimal, patience, histogram
E474: 'filler' does not take a value

- :get() returns `{ sbr = true, shift = '3' }` (reified-keyset) instead of `{'sbr', 'shift:3'}`
- Setting via table now works too. `object_as_optval_for` `is_map` now recognizes struct options.
- fix#30296
- instead of `E474: Invalid argument`, errors now look like:
```
E474: Invalid value 'x', expected one of: single, double: ambiwidth=x
E474: Unknown item 'foo': diffopt=foo
E474: 'context' requires a number: diffopt=context:x
```

Problem: [security]: code injection in netrw via bookmarks and history
(David Carliez)
Solution: Escape the '|' explicitly (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
The bookmark and history menu builders interpolate paths into :execute'd
:menu commands using g:netrw_menu_escape, which did not escape the Ex
command separator '|'. A crafted path could break out of the :menu command
and run arbitrary Ex/shell commands when the menu was built or triggered.
Add '|' to g:netrw_menu_escape for the menu names, escape the :e right-hand
side with fnameescape(), and quote the netrw#MakeTgt() argument with
string() instead of raw single-quote interpolation.

Problem:
The preview-window (:pedit, etc.) always uses a split, but it would be
useful as a floatwin (or "popup").
Solution:
Support Vim's 'previewpopup' option.
Vim's code and test for channel,job API are already N/A.
Blacklisting runtime/doc/channel.txt ensures most patches for it
will be detected as N/A.
Vim's API that is too incompatible with Neovim must be handled
outside vim-patch.sh .
Problem:
`:restart` on Windows always forces `AllocConsole`, even though we could
reuse old server's existing console + unnecessary env.
Analysis:
After d5516daf12 changed the restart
lifecycle and 789741bb83 separated the
Windows console paths, we no longer need to force `AllocConsole()` for
`:restart`. The `:detach` path now allocates its own console when it
actually runs.
Solution:
Try to attach the replacement server to its parent’s console and fall
back to `AllocConsole()` if attachment fails. Drop the restart-specific
env that forced allocation.
As documented by Microsoft, [“A console is closed when the last process
attached to it terminates or calls
`FreeConsole`.”](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/attachconsole)
Btw, this way we can preserve `io.stdout:write()`, though if for some
reason `AttachConsole` would fail then it won't work; but now at least
it's not always not rendering on `:restart`.

Problem: When the terminal reports no colors ("t_Co" is 0 or 1) the
insert mode completion popup menu is not shown at all, while
the command line completion popup menu ('wildoptions' contains
"pum") is shown. In 'wildmenu' completion the current match
cannot be told apart from the other matches (Maxim Kim)
Solution: Show the insert mode completion popup menu regardless of the
number of colors and add "term" attributes to the default
highlighting of Pmenu, PmenuSel and PmenuThumb. The wildmenu
is drawn with the attributes of the status line, which is
reversed, and on most terminals the standout mode is the same
as the reverse mode, thus use the underline mode for the
default highlighting of WildMenu (Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: filetype: .git-blame-ignore-revs file is not recognized
Solution: Detect .git-blame-ignore-revs file as gitrevlist filetype,
include syntax and filetype plugins (Fionn Fitzmaurice)
A Git revision list is
> a list of object names (i.e. one unabbreviated SHA-1 per line)...,
> comments (#), empty lines, and any leading and trailing whitespace are
> ignored.
(from Git's fsck.skipList documentation).
The default output of git rev-list will match this. It is also suitable
as input to git blame --ignore-revs-file.
This adds filetype detection matching .git-blame-ignore-revs files,
syntax highlighting and basic filetype settings.

Problem: Opening a file from a netrw listing throws
"E471: Argument required: keepj keepalt 2wincmd 1" when
g:netrw_chgwin equals winnr('$')+1, e.g. after opening
:Lexplore (which sets g:netrw_chgwin=2) and closing the
sidebar, then browsing with :Explore in the remaining window.
s:NetrwBrowseChgDir builds the window jump as
"g:netrw_chgwin wincmd curwin", passing the saved window
NUMBER where wincmd expects its single-letter argument.
Solution: Jump back to the saved window with "curwin wincmd w", as the
surrounding comment intends; the following statement then
performs the actual jump to g:netrw_chgwin.
The faulty line dates back to at least Vim 9.0
(runtime/autoload/netrw.vim:4976 at v9.0.0000).
Reported (against the since-archived netrw repo) in
saccarosium/netrw.vim#98 and neovim/neovim#34169.
Note: no test, because the error reproduces only in Neovim.

Problem:
The core behaviors of `nvim.dir` cannot be reused by consumers
such as the archive plugin, ssh browser, etc.
Solution:
- Define a basic "provider" shape.
- Extract the filesystem provider.
Problem:
When buffer is open in multiple windows and its line count changes, any
'statusline' or 'rulerformat' items depending on it (e.g. %P) will
become invalid in non-current windows because w_redr_status is only set
on first change.
Solution:
Set w_redr_status on all windows with the buffer when the line count
changes.

Problem:
Redundant code.
Solution:
Combine path_has_wildcard() and path_has_exp_wildcard(). They have similar logic.
Also, the latter operates on whatever wildcards remain after shell/env/backtick
expansion, so the two felt somewhat related.
Also drop some unnecessary MB_PTR_ADV calls.
Problem: ":startinsert" enters Insert mode in a buffer where
'modifiable' is off, the error only appears when a character
is typed. Typing "i" gives the error right away (Barrett Ruth)
Solution: Give the error when the buffer is not modifiable, like "i"
does. Keep ignoring the command in a terminal window, where
":startinsert" is documented to be ineffective, and keep
accepting it when 'insertmode' is set, like "i" does
(Hirohito Higashi).
