- Remove abstract_ui global, now it is always active
- Remove some terminal handling code
- Remove unused functions
- Remove HAVE_TGETENT/TERMINFO/TERMIOS/IOCTL #ifdefs
- Remove tgetent/terminfo from version.c
- Remove curses/terminfo dependencies
- Only start/stop termcap when starting/exiting the program
- msg_use_printf will return true if there are no attached UIs(
messages will be written to stdout)
- Remove `ex_winpos`(implement `:winpos` with `ex_ni`)
Problem: In some situations, when setting up an environment to trigger an
autocommand, the environment is not properly restored.
Solution: Check the return value of switch_win() and call restore_win()
always. (Daniel Hahler)

Regarding dict_lookup() in eval.c: both definitions are the same, the
only difference being the spacing between the indirection operator and
the indentation level.
- Set 't_Co' to 256 at startup. The value can be changed by the user for
compatibility with terminals that are less capable.
- `has('gui_running')` will return 1 if at least one rgb UI is attached.
Even though these changes are hacky, they are necessary to make the transition
to the new UI architecture smoother.
Problem : getdigits() currently returns a long, but at most places,
return value is casted (unsafely) into an int. Making casts
safe would introduce a lot of fuss in the form of assertions
checking for limits.
Note : We cannot just change return type to int, because, at some
places, legitimate long values are used. For example, in
diff.c, for line numbers.
Solution : Introduce new functions:
- get_digits() : Gets an intmax_t from a string.
- get_int_digits() : Wrapper for ints.
- get_long_digits() : Wrapper for longs.
And replace getdigits() invocations by the appropiate
wrapper invocations.
For garbage collection all lists are kept in first_list, a list of all
lists.
free_unref_items() searches through first_list and removes unreferenced
lists from it (by calling list_free(..., FALSE)). But after a list was
removed, the search continues from the beginning of first_list (not sure
how many lists were really removed and where to continue in first_list).
This is not necessary anymore since vim-patch 7.0.135, because a call to
list_free(...,FALSE) makes sure, that no other lists (and dictionaries)
are freed. So we always know, that the next list in first_list is
still valid (allocated or NULL) and can be used to continue the search.
Likewise for dictionaries.

Problem: gettabvar() is not consistent with getwinvar() and getbufvar().
Solution: Return a dict with all variables when the varname is empty.

A similar macro is defined in the Linux kernel [1].
To refactor the code I used a slightly modified Coccinelle script I found in

Problem: getreg() does not distinguish between a NL used for a line
break and a NL used for a NUL character.
Solution: Add another argument to return a list. (ZyX)

save_tv_as_string() should return NULL and input_len <= 0 for an empty
string or error. Callers should check that input != NULL instead of
input_len > 0 and assert(input == NULL) when the length must be checked.
Also:
- Remove NO_CONSOLE_INPUT/NO_CONSULE preprocessor conditionals
- Remove ctrl_c_interrupts variable, check for mapped_ctrl_c directly in
process_interrupts()
- Move ui_inchar profiling to input_poll which is where Nvim blocks for input.
- By default vim_feedkeys escaped all input for CSI/K_SPECIAL bytes
before using it. However since vim_replace_termcodes() also escapes
the input string chaining these functions together escapes input twice
- vim_feedkeys() now takes a third Boolean argument to enable/disable
escaping
- Breaks API compatibility
- get_system_output_as_rettv() was missing a refcount increment when
returning an empty list, i.e. when there was no output
- we now use rettv_list_aloc() instead of list_alloc()
- issue #1530
Problem : Assigned value is garbage or undefined @ 12578.
Diagnostic : Multithreading issue.
Rationale : Error can only occur if global `provider_call_nesting` is
changed while function is executing.
Resolution : Use local copy of global.
