Problem:
`termopen` has long been a superficial wrapper around `jobstart`, and
has no real purpose. Also, `vim.system` and `nvim_open_term` presumably
will replace all features of `jobstart` and `termopen`, so centralizing
the logic will help with that.
Solution:
- Introduce `eval/deprecated.c`, where all deprecated eval funcs will live.
- Introduce "term" flag of `jobstart`.
- Deprecate `termopen`.
Problem: hard to view an existing buffer in the preview window
Solution: add the :pbuffer command (Yinzuo Jiang)
Similar as `:pedit` and `:buffer` command. `:pbuffer` edits buffer [N]
from the buffer list in the preview window.
`:pbuffer` can also open special buffer, for example terminal buffer.

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: Floating windows with focusable set to false can reasonably be
expected to be UI elements but are listed in some outputs that
should contain only regular windows.
Solution: Hide unfocusable floating windows from the default tabline and
:tabs.
Problem: Highlight group id is not propagated to the end of the message call
stack, where ext_messages are emitted.
Solution: Refactor message functions to pass along highlight group id
instead of attr id.
Problem: :setglobal doesn't work properly for 'ffu' and 'tsrfu' when
the local value is set (after v9.1.0831)
Solution: Check os_flags instead of buffer option variable (zeertzjq).

Problem: Unnecessary nextcmd NULL checks in parse_command_modifiers().
Solution: Remove them (zeertzjq)
Every place parse_command_modifiers() is called, nextcmd is NULL, and
after it's set to non-NULL the function returns very soon.
Even if one day nextcmd may be non-NULL, the NULL checks may still be
wrong as the correct behavior may be overriding nextcmd.

Cherry-pick code change from patch 8.2.3405.
Problem:
`'scrollbind'` does not work properly if the window being scrolled
automatically contains any filler/virtual lines (except for diff filler
lines).
This is because when the scrollbind check is done, the logic only
considers changes to topline which are represented as line numbers.
Solution:
Write the logic for determine the scroll amount to take into account
filler/virtual lines.
Fixes#29751
Problem:
Variables are often assigned multiple places in common patterns.
Solution:
Replace these common patterns with different patterns that reduce the
number of assignments.
Use `MAX` and `MIN`:
```c
if (x < y) {
x = y;
}
// -->
x = MAX(x, y);
```
```c
if (x > y) {
x = y;
}
// -->
x = MIN(x, y);
```
Use ternary:
```c
int a;
if (cond) {
a = b;
} els {
a = c;
}
// -->
int a = cond ? b : c;
```
Problem: Printed line no longer overwrites colon when pressing Enter in
Ex mode (after 9.1.0573).
Solution: Restore the behavior of pressing Enter in Ex mode.

Problem: silent! causes following try/catch to not work
(Malcolm Rowe)
Solution: consider emsg_silent in handle_did_throw() and do not abort
evaluation flow for :silent! (LemonBoy)
The silent! flag causes the evaluation not to be aborted in case of
uncaught exceptions, adjust handle_did_throw to take this detail into
account.
Fixes the long-standing todo.txt item:
```
Problem that a previous silent ":throw" causes a following try/catch not

Cherry-pick Test_deeply_nested_source() from patch 8.2.5169.
Co-authored-by: LemonBoy <thatlemon@gmail.com>
The latter was mostly relevant with the past char_u madness.
NOTE: STRCAT also functioned as a counterfeit "NOLINT" for clint
apparently. But NOLINT-ing every usecase is just the same as disabling
the check entirely.
It's a function to perform operations in their own sealed context,
similar to pythons `with`. This helps ease operations where you need to
perform an operation in a specific context, and then restore the
context.
Marked as private for now as it's not ready for public use. The current
plan is to start using this internally so we can discover and fix any
problems. Once this is ready to be exposed it will be renamed to
`vim.with`.
Usage:
```lua
local ret = vim._with({context = val}, function()
return "hello"
end)
```
, where `context` is any combination of:
- `buf`
- `emsg_silent`
- `hide`
- `horizontal`
- `keepalt`
- `keepjumps`
- `keepmarks`
- `keeppatterns`
- `lockmarks`
- `noautocmd`
- `options`
- `sandbox`
- `silent`
- `unsilent`
- `win`
(except for `win` and `buf` which can't be used at the same time). This
list will most likely be expanded in the future.

Problem: POSIX function name in exarg struct causes issues
on OpenVMS
Solution: Rename getline member in exarg struct to ea_getline,
remove isinf() workaround for VMS
There are compilers that do not treat well POSIX functions - like
getline - usage in the structs.
Older VMS compilers could digest this... but the newer OpenVMS compilers
( like VSI C x86-64 X7.4-843 (GEM 50XB9) ) cannot deal with these
structs. This could be limited to getline() that is defined via
getdelim() and might not affect all POSIX functions in general - but
avoiding POSIX function names usage in the structs is a "safe side"
practice without compromising the functionality or the code readability.
The previous OpenVMS X86 port used a workaround limiting the compiler
capabilities using __CRTL_VER_OVERRIDE=80400000
In order to make the OpenVMS port future proof, this pull request
proposes a possible solution.

Problem: `set_string_option_direct()` contains a separate codepath specifically for setting string options. Not only is that unnecessary code duplication, but it's also limited to only string options.
Solution: Replace `set_string_option_direct()` with `set_option_direct()` which calls `set_option()` under the hood. This reduces code duplication and allows directly setting an option of any type.
A lot of functions in move.c only worked for curwin, alternatively
took a `wp` arg but still only work if that happens to be curwin.
