The name of Cmdwin* events were changed to CmdWin* in 8ed2dbf6e2
without explanation. This commit changes them back.
This doesn't affect the creation or execution of autocommands. It only
affects the listing of autocommands.
Problem: It's difficult for colorscheme authors to know which highlight
groups should be defined.
Solution: List and link to all built-in highlight group categories. Also
remove outdated text on "preferred" and "secondary" groups.
Problem:
Whether an option is allowed to be empty isn't well defined and
isn't properly checked.
Solution:
- For non-list string options, explicitly check the option value
if it is empty.
- Annotate non-list string options that can accept an empty value.
- Adjust command completion to ignore the empty value.
- Render values in Lua meta files
Problem:
`nvim -es` (and `nvim -Es`) is the recommended way to non-interactively
run commands/vimscript. But it enables shada by default, which is
usually not wanted.
Solution:
- Disable shada by default for `nvim -es/-Es`. This can be overridden by
`-i foo` if needed.
- Do NOT change the 'loadplugins' default.
- User config + packages _should_ be enabled by default, for both `nvim
-es` and `nvim -l`. Else any Lua packages you have can't be accessed
without `-u path/to/config`, which is clumsy.
- Use-cases:
```
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
would become: nvim -es "+Lazy! sync"
nvim --headless +PlugInstall +qall
would become: nvim -es +PlugInstall
```
- Opt-out (`--clean` or `-u NONE`) is much easier than opt-in (`-u
path/to/config`).
- User config/packages are analogous to pip packages, which are
expected when doing `python -c ...`.

When a terminal application running inside the terminal emulator sets
the cursor shape or blink status of the cursor, update the cursor in the
parent terminal to match.
This removes the "virtual cursor" that has been in use by the terminal
emulator since the beginning. The original rationale for using the
virtual cursor was to avoid having to support additional UI methods to
change the cursor color for other (non-TUI) UIs, instead relying on the
TermCursor and TermCursorNC highlight groups.
The TermCursor highlight group is now used in the default 'guicursor'
value, which has a new entry for Terminal mode. However, the
TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported: since terminal
windows now use the real cursor, when the window is not focused there is
no cursor displayed in the window at all, so there is nothing to
highlight. Users can still use the StatusLineTermNC highlight group to
differentiate non-focused terminal windows.
BREAKING CHANGE: The TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported.
Problem: :sleep! not hiding the cursor is an arbitrary difference from
Vim without obvious justification, and Vim's behavior isn't
easily achievable in Nvim.
Solution: Make :sleep! hide the cursor while sleeping.

Problem: default for 'backspace' can be set in C code
Solution: promote the default for 'backspace' from defaults.vim to the C
code (Luca Saccarola)
closes: vim/vim#16143959ef61430
N/A patches:
vim-patch:9.1.0895: default history value is too small
vim-patch:075aeea: runtime(doc): document changed default value for 'history'

Problem: 'wildmenu' not enabled by default in nocp mode
Solution: promote the default Vim value to true, it has been enabled
in defaults.vim anyhow, so remove it there (Luca Saccarola)
closes: vim/vim#16055437bc13ea1

Problem: We use `void *` for option default values, which is confusing and can cause problems with type-correctness. It also doesn't accomodate for multitype options. On top of that, it also leads to default boolean option values not behaving correctly on big endian systems.
Solution: Use `OptVal` for option default values.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `:set {option}<` removes the local value for all global-local options instead of just string global-local options.
- `:setlocal {option}<` copies the global value to the local value for number and boolean global-local options instead of removing the local value.
Problem:
Hidden options are documented despite being no-ops.
Solution:
Remove docs for hidden options.
Move tags for options that we plan to restore, to ":help nvim-missing".
Move tags for permanently removed options, to ":help nvim-removed".
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).
Problem: Some runtime files no longer spark joy.
Solution: Kondo the place up.
Still sparks _some_ joy (moved to new `runtime/scripts` folder):
* `macros/less.*`
* `mswin.vim`
* `tools/emoji_list.lua`
No longer sparks joy (removed):
* `macmap.vim` (gvimrc file; not useful in Nvim)
* `tools/check_colors.vim` (no longer useful with new default colorscheme and treesitter)
* `macros/editexisting.vim` (throws error on current Nvim)
* `macros/justify.vim` (obsolete shim for `packadd! justify`)
* `macros/matchit.vim` (same)
* `macros/shellmenu.vim` (same)
* `macros/swapmous.vim` (same)
Problem: Current instance of last search pattern not easily spotted.
Solution: Add CurSearch highlighting. (closesvim/vim#10133)

Some code is superseded by later patches that are already ported.

Revert the default LSP mappings before the 0.10 release as these might
need some further consideration. In particular, it's not clear if "c"
prefixed maps in Normal mode are acceptable as defaults since they
interfere with text objects or operator ranges.
We will re-introduce default mappings at the beginning of the 0.11
release cycle, this reversion is only for the imminent 0.10 release.
Problem:
The new LSP "refactor menu" keybinding "crr" is also defined in visual
mode, which overlaps with the builtin "c".
Solution:
Use CTRL-R instead of "crr" for visual mode.
fix#28528
Based on feedback from #28324, pass -H and -I to regular grep
(available on all platforms officially supported by Neovim), and
only pass -uu to ripgrep. This makes :grep ignore binary files by
default in both cases.
