Problem: "char" functions return the wront column in Insert mode when the
cursor is beyond the end of the line.
Solution: Compute the column correctly. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#7669)

Problem: Search() cannot skip over matches like searchpair() can.
Solution: Add an optional "skip" argument. (Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#861)
adc17a5f9d
Enable skip arg usage in autoload/freebasic.vim
evalarg_T doesn't really matter because it's deleted in v8.2.0918 (and
reincarnated for Vim9 script in v8.2.1047), but I found out too late :P Anyway:
- Port evalarg_T into eval.h and use const char * and Callback fields
- Use EVALARG_INIT to initialize
- Return bool over OK/FAIL from evalarg functions
- Remove check from evalarg_clean as callback_free ignores None callbacks anyway
- Move eva_buf field into evalarg_get as a local (not sure what reason it has
being in the struct)
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.2.4355: unnecessary call to check_colorcolumn()
Problem: Unnecessary call to check_colorcolumn().
Solution: Remove the call. (Sean Dewar, closesvim/vim#9748)

Problem: Expanding to local dir after homedir keeps "~/".
Solution: Adjust modify_fname(). (Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#6205,
closesvim/vim#5979)
0e390f40e9
Problem: Fnamemodify() does not apply ":~" when followed by ":.".
Solution: Don't let a failing ":." cause the ":~" to be skipped. (Yasuhiro
Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#5577)

Problem: Not easy to get mark en cursor posotion by character count.
Solution: Add functions that use character index. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,
closesvim/vim#7648)

Problem: :for cannot loop over a string.
Solution: Accept a string argument and iterate over its characters.

v8.2.2659 is already ported.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.2.2736: Vim9: for loop over string is a bit slow
Problem: Vim9: for loop over string is a bit slow.
Solution: Avoid using strlen().

Problem: ml_get error when win_execute redraws with Visual selection.
Solution: Disable Visual area temporarily. (closesvim/vim#9479)

{switch_to/restore}_win_for_buf is N/A (marked as such in v8.0.0860; currently
only used in Vim's if_py).
Add a modeline to test_execute_func.vim.
Problem: Command completion in cmdline window uses global user commands,
not local commands for the window where it was opened from.
Solution: Use local commands. (closesvim/vim#9168)

Behavioral changes:
1. Added support for lua function in keymaps in
--------------------------------------------
- nvim_set_keymap
Can set lua function as keymap rhs like following:
```lua
vim.api.nvim_{buf_}set_keymap('n', '<leader>lr', '', {callback = vim.lsp.buf.references})
```
Note: lua function can only be set from lua . If api function being
called from viml or over rpc this option isn't available.
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap
When called from lua, lua function is returned is `callback` key .
But in other cases callback contains number of the function ref.
- :umap, nvim_del_keymap & nvim_buf_del_keymap clears lua keymaps correctly.
- :map commands for displaing rhs .
For lua keymaps rhs is displayed as <Lua function ref_no>
Note: lua keymap cannot be set through viml command / functions.
- mapargs()
When dict is false it returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>`
format (same format as :map commands).
When dict is true it returns ref_no number in `callback` key.
- mapcheck()
returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>` format (same format as :map commands).
2. Added support for keymap description
---------------------------------------
- nvim_{buf_}set_keymap: added `desc` option in opts table .
```lua
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<leader>w', '<cmd>w<cr>', {desc='Save current file'})
```
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap: contains `desc` in returned list.
- commands like `:nmap <leader>w` will show description in a new line below rhs.
- `maparg()` return dict contains `desc`.
Problem: An OptionSet autocommand does not get enough info.
Solution: Add v:option_command, v:option_oldlocal and v:option_oldglobal.

vim-patch:8.2.3627: difficult to know where the text starts in a window
Problem: difficult to know where the text starts in a window. (Sergey
Vlasov)
Solution: Add the "textoff" entry in the result of getwininfo().
(closesvim/vim#9163)
cdf5fdb294
Fix indent in Test_getbufwintabinfo().
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.

For anonymous scripts, defer the creation of script items until an attempt to access a script-local
variable is made. This dramatically reduces the number of script items created when using lots of
vim.cmd and nvim_exec especially.
This will mean <SID> usage fails until a script-local variable access is first made.
