Problem:
- Lua<=>API roundtrips
- Although we prefer Lua for most business-logic code, doing this
conversion in C makes sense in this case because:
1. setting options is a hot path
2. most of the options logic lives in C
3. the current arrangement is MORE verbose and requires MORE code
Solution:
Move conversion to a C util.
- nvim_set_option_value passes the raw Object (scalar, Array, or Dict)
to `object_as_optval_for()` which flattens it to the canonical `:set`
string and validates the type.
- drop `convert_value_to_vim`, eliminate its roundtrip.
Problem:
`nvim_set_option_value` cannot "update" options similar to `:set opt=`,
`:set opt+=`, etc. The Lua impls of "vim.opt" / "vim.o" have incomplete,
bespoke reimplementations of those operations.
ref #38420
Solution:
- Add `operation` param to `nvim_set_option_value`, which may be "set",
"append", "prepend", or "remove".
- Use this feature to implement `vim.opt` / `vim.o`.
Problem:
When `to_vim_value[info.metatype](info, value)` is called, a list value
such as `{'eob:a'}` is treated like a map, which generates `1:eob:a`.
Note: commands like `:lua vim.opt.wildmode={'longest:full'}` are not an
issue because only cases harcoded in `key_value_options` have metatype `map`.
Solution:
Check for array type and use the same logic as in array metatypes.
Define a CMake target for every subdirectory of test/functional that
contains functional tests, and a functionaltest_parallel target that
depends on all those targets, allowing multiple test runners to run in
parallel.
On CI, use at most 2 parallel test runners, as using more may increase
system load and make tests unstable.
- Bump zig version to 0.15.1 and workaround zig fetch hang (ziglang/zig#24916)
- add mac os zig build (currently without luajit, linker failure)
- Add windows zig build, currently with very limited testing
