Problem:
After bc0635a9fc `vim.wait()` rejects floats
and NaN values.
Solution:
Restore the prior behavior, while still supporting `math.huge`. Update
tests to cover float case.
Problem:
Current options for powershell and pwsh had mistakes and rationale
behind them was not clear.
Solution:
Update the suggested options by splitting up powershell and pwsh, as
well as ensuring that all options work and rationale is documented and
discussed.
Problem: diff: missing diff size limit for xdiff
Solution: Impose file size limit for internal diff (xdiff)
(Yee Cheng Chin).
Git imposes a hard cap on file size for content that it passes to xdiff
(added to Git in dcd1742e56e, defined in xdiff-interface.h), due to
integer overflow concerns in xdiff. Vim doesn't specify such a limit
right now, which means it's possible for a user to diff a large file
(1GB+) and trigger these overflow issues.
Add the same size limit (1GB minus 1MB) to Vim and simply throws an
error when Vim encounters files larger than said limit. For now, reuse
the same error message regarding internal diff failures. There is no
need to add the same limit for external diff as it's up to each tool to
error check their input to decide what is appropriate or not.

Problem: Windows: Vim always adds the current directory to search path.
This should only happen when using cmd.exe as 'shell'. For
example, powershell won't run binaries from the current
directory.
Solution: Only add current directory to system path, when using cmd.exe
as 'shell'.

Problem: completion: complete_match() Vim script function and
'isexpand' option are not that useful and confusing
(after v9.1.1341)
Solution: Remove function and option and clean up code and documentation
(Girish Palya).
complete_match() and 'isexpand' add no real functionality to Vim. They
duplicate what `strridx()` already does, yet pretend to be part of the
completion system. They have nothing to do with the completion mechanism.
* `f_complete_match()` in `insexpand.c` does not call any completion code.
It’s just a `STRNCMP()` wrapper with fluff logic.
* `'isexpand'` exists only as a proxy argument to that function.
It does nothing on its own and amounts to misuse of a new option.
The following Vim script function can be used to implement the same
functionality:
```vim
func CompleteMatch(triggers, sep=',')
let line = getline('.')->strpart(0, col('.') - 1)
let result = []
for trig in split(a:triggers, a:sep)
let idx = strridx(line, trig)
if l:idx >= 0
call add(result, [idx + 1, trig])
endif
endfor
return result
endfunc
```

Add "Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|" documentation to
options that have the P_EXPAND flag but were missing this note.
Updated options:
- 'cdpath'
- 'dictionary'
- 'mkspellmem'
- 'packpath'
- 'runtimepath'
- 'spellfile'
- 'spellsuggest'
- 'thesaurus'
- 'ttytype'
- 'undodir'
- 'verbosefile'
- 'viewdir'
- 'viminfofile'
These options support environment variable expansion in their values
(e.g., $HOME, $USER) but the documentation didn't explicitly mention
this capability. This brings their documentation in line with other
options like backupdir, directory, and makeprg that already include
this note.

Problem: Cannot reuse same config with noautocmd for both window
creation and updates, even when value is unchanged.
Solution: Only reject noautocmd changes for existing windows.
Problem:
- Exposing the raw config as table is a pattern not seen anywhere else
in the Nvim codebase.
- Old spellfile.vim docs still available, no new documentation
Solution:
- Exposing a `config()` function that both acts as "getter" and "setter"
is a much more common idiom (e.g. vim.lsp, vim.diagnostic).
- Add new documentation and link old docs to |spellfile.lua| instead of
|spellfile.vim|.
Problem: A plugin does not know when startup scripts were already
triggered. This is useful to determine if a function is
called inside vimrc or after (like when sourcing 'plugin/'
files).
Solution: Add the v:vim_did_init variable (Evgeni Chasnovski)
closes: vim/vim#18668https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/294bce21ee837aab209a1008d0efc3e305cf188f
Nvim has two more steps between sourcing startup scripts and loading
plugins. Set this variable after these two steps.

Problem:
1. Setting `pumborder=+,+,+,+,+,+,+,+` failed to render the custom
border characters correctly. The issue occurred in `parse_winborder()`
where it incorrectly used `p_winborder` instead of the `border_opt`
parameter when the option value didn't contain commas.
2. In `pum_redraw()`, calling `parse_border_style()` directly with the
option string failed to parse comma-separated border characters.
3. Missing documentation for PmenuShadow and PmenuShadowThrough
highlight groups used by the shadow border style.
4. Coverity reports CID 631420: passing WinConfig (480 bytes) by value
in `grid_draw_border()`.
5. crash when using `shadow` value on pumborder.
Solution:
1. Fix `parse_winborder()` to use `border_opt` parameter consistently,
ensuring the correct option value is parsed regardless of which
option (winborder/pumborder) is being set.
2. Update `pum_redraw()` to call `parse_winborder()` instead of
`parse_border_style()`, properly handling both predefined styles
and custom comma-separated border characters.
3. Add documentation for PmenuShadow (blended shadow areas) and
PmenuShadowThrough (see-through corners) highlight groups.
4. Change `grid_draw_border()` to accept WinConfig by pointer.
5. When the "shadow" style is used, no additional row and column offset
is applied, and the border width is reduced.
Problem:
Popup menu cannot have a border.
Solution:
Support 'pumborder' option.
Generalize `win_redr_border` to `grid_redr_border`,
which redraws border for window grid and pum grid.
The current description (especially the "unlimited width" part) is
inaccurate in several ways:
- The size of virtual text can depend on window width. In particular,
the size of "above" virtual text can be equal to window width.
- A double-width character that doesn't fit adds 1 to the virtual column
of the following characters.
- The size of 'showbreak' and 'breakindent' is counted.
