Problem:
msgpack#strptime() finds a timestamp by bisecting strftime() output, and
brackets the search with the extreme UTC offsets. The lower bound
subtracts 12 hours, but -12:00 is the westernmost offset, which produces
the *largest* timestamp for a given local time. The easternmost offset
is +14:00, so in any zone east of UTC+12 the search can start above the
target and the function throws:
internal-start-string:Internal error: start > string
With TZ=GMT-14, four of the five timestamps in msgpack_spec.lua fail,
as do three tests in shada_spec.lua, which reaches the same function
through shada#strings_to_sd().
Solution:
Subtract 14 hours instead. The upper bound is already generous enough at
+14, and widening a bisection bracket downwards cannot change the result
in zones that worked before.
The test disables the python3 provider, because msgpack#strptime() only
uses the Vimscript implementation changed here when no provider answers,
and otherwise hands the work to datetime.strptime().

Problem: vim.pack uses a private async implementation even though
vim.async is now available.
Solution: Remove the private implementation and run plugin operations in
structured task scopes. Bound parallel work with semaphores and use
protected awaits so cancellation still propagates.

Problem: Spup syntax fails for an out-of-range comment mode.
Solution: Add the missing let to the fallback assignment (Qiming zhao).
Setting oneline_comments above 3 raises E492 while loading the syntax
script. Use a valid legacy Vim script assignment to restore the default
value of 2.
Validated with oneline_comments set to 1, 2, 3, 4 and 99, and with the
variable unset. The original script fails with E492 for a value of 4.
The corrected script loads and applies the expected comment mode.

Problem:
TSHighlighter._on_conceal_line() parses with the range { row, row }. A
Range2 has an exclusive end, so that is the empty range, and no injected
region ever intercepts it.
The root tree is parsed regardless, because its region is empty, so only
injections are affected: conceal_lines metadata coming from an injected
language's highlights query is dropped. on_range_impl() then records the
row in _conceal_checked, so the miss persists until the buffer changes.
For a markdown code block nested in a markdown code block, the inner
fence delimiters stay visible and nvim_win_text_height() reports 5 rows
where 3 are displayed.
Solution:
Pass the one-row range, as the on_range_impl() call below already does.

Problem:
cmd_on_key() tests the key it was handed against the literal string
'<MouseMove>', but at that point "typed" still holds raw key bytes. Thus
the comparison never holds and the branch its own comment describes
is dead. Moving the mouse over an expanded cmdline collapses it.
Solution:
Translate the key once, up front, so every comparison in the function
sees the same form.
AI-assisted
Problem:
The #has-parent? predicate indexes the result of node:parent() without
checking it, so a capture that matches a tree's root node raises
query.lua:600: attempt to index a nil value
instead of simply not matching. In a highlights query that breaks
highlighting for the whole buffer. The sibling #has-ancestor? predicate
handles the same situation.
Solution:
Treat a missing parent as "does not match".

Problem:
Cursors placed same-line before the primary, or producing multiline
edits on lines above the primary, shift the text in a way that breaks
the insert-mode live-mirroring.
Solution:
Skip live-mirroring under those conditions.
TODO (future): we could support live-mirroring if ins-completion's
internal bookkeeping tracked its regions more precisely.
Problem:
The "spill" indicator that ui2 appends when messages overflow the
available height is drawn with whatever highlight the message tail
happens to have, so it is indistinguishable from the message text.
Solution:
Give the [+x] chunks an explicit `MoreMsg` highlight, and only fall back
to the message tail highlight for chunks that don't carry one of their
own.

Problem:
The ui2 dialog implements paging for the arrow keys, Home/End and the
page keys, but not for the mouse wheel. When `mouse` contains `"c"`,
turning the wheel does nothing at all.
Solution:
Handle <ScrollWheelUp>/<ScrollWheelDown>, scrolling by the `mousescroll`
`"ver"` amount.
AI-assisted
Problem:
`]C` jumps the primary onto another cursor, which dedupes at the next
edit. Every `]C` consumes a cursor.
Solution:
`]C` adds a cursor at the current position before jumping. This
effectively "rotates" the primary cursor.
Problem: Nvim has many Lua APIs that start callback-driven work: timers,
jobs, libuv handles, and other event-loop tasks. Callers that need to
sequence or cancel that work have to build their own coroutine wrappers,
task bookkeeping, and cleanup rules. This makes async control flow hard
to share, test, and document.
Solution: Add `vim.async`, a structured-concurrency module vendored from
async.nvim. It provides task handles, await/pawait helpers,
sleep/timeout helpers, completion-order iteration, and semaphores on top
of Nvim's event loop.
The API follows the same broad model as Trio: async work has an owner,
tasks are awaited explicitly, and cancellation is cooperative. Include
generated vimdoc with an introductory overview and examples, a news
entry, and functional tests for the new module.

Problem: there should be exactly one cell of padding between sections,
and exactly one cell of minimum padding between the left and the right.
- Spaces between sections waste space when a section is empty.
According to a comment in #33036, this was the reason to avoid `%k`
and implement the keymap section with a vim expression, but other
sections still have this problem.
- The diagnostics section wastes space because it is not entirely empty
when there are diagnostics in another buffer.
- The terminal exit code section can touch the right side, e.g. the
ruler, even though it belongs to the left side.
Solution:
- Use auto-hiding item groups (`%(` without width fields) to get rid of
unneeded spaces when a section shows no information.
This simplifies the 'showcmd' and 'keymap' sections in particular.
- As a slight simplification, `term_exitcode` is moved into the flags
section since it is formatted with square brackets like a flag.
- Count the diagnostics for the current buffer specifically.
- Ensure at least one cell of padding between the left and the right
side by adding a space next to the separator `%=`.
Problem: some sections are implemented with `%{%`, even though
reevaluation of the expression result is not needed.
This leads to otherwise needless %-escaping in `progress_status`.
Solution: use `%{` instead.
Problem: `%{` and `%{%` (without items) replace spaces with fillchars.
This looks out-of-place inside the terminal exit code section, and in
contrast to all other sections, the 'busy' section is surrounded by
fillchars, which looks inconsistent, and with some terminal-font
combinations, ◐ overlaps the fillchar, e.g. Alacritty & JetBrains Mono.
Solution: use non-breaking spaces U+202F to avoid fillchar substitution.
Problem: sections that appear/disappear frequently can make otherwise
more stable sections jump around a lot.
Solution: sort the sections on the right roughly by volatility:
'showcmd' in first place, 'keymap' next to the ruler.
Problem:
`parse_ssh_config()` compares tables against a freshly allocated empty
table.
- In `parse_multiple_values()`, the guard which avoids flushing an empty
accumulator never applies. Runs of separators and trailing whitespace
push empty strings into the results, and `is_valid()` does not filter
them. `Host alpha beta ` parses as `{ 'alpha', '', 'beta' }`.
- In `parse_value()`, the condition reduces to `chr == '"' and quoted`.
`quoted` starts false and only that branch sets it, so it can never
become true: quotes are never recognised and are inserted literally,
and the unterminated-quote check is unreachable.
Solution:
Compare `#val` instead. Add a test for repeated and trailing separators.

Problem:
`IterArray:take()` iterates up to `self._tail`, but `_tail` is
exclusive. When no element fails the predicate, the loop reads one index
past the last element and calls the predicate with `nil`.
Solution:
Stop at `self._tail - inc`, which is the last in-range index for both
iteration directions. Add tests using a predicate which dereferences its
argument and matches every element, forward and reversed.
AI-assisted
Problem:
`inspect_tree()` documents `title` as
`string|fun(bufnr:integer):string|nil`, but the implementation handles
only `nil` and function values. A string title leaves `title` unset and
fails the assertion below.
Solution:
Use the string as the title.
Problem:
An explicitly passed `range` to `vim.lsp.buf.format()` in linewise
visual mode is silently replaced by the selection.
Solution:
Parenthesise the mode check.
Problem:
The `textDocument/documentLink` handler resolves the confirmation buffer
from the request URI and checks it for `nil`, then reads lines from
buffer `0`. When the confirmation buffer is not current, links are
computed from unrelated text and returned against the confirmation
buffer's line numbers, producing missing or misplaced links.
Solution:
Read lines from the resolved `bufnr`.

Problems:
- Slow shell check measures time in nanoseconds, but reports seconds.
- `kdch1` check incorrectly tests `kbs_entry` instead.
- curl version is passed as an advice, so it is never reported.
Solutions:
- Scale the elapsed time to seconds before reporting.
- Test `kdch1_entry` for `kdch1` check.
- Format curl warning with `string.format()`.

Problem:
An atom queued in buffer A cascades on B's cursors if the mapping ends
in B ("nnoremap X x:bnext<CR>").
Solution:
Check the atom's origin buffer (`CmdAtom.origin.buf`).
Note: This does not preclude mappings etc from doing work in temporary
throwaway buffers, as long as they return to the origin buffer.
Problem:
`vim.version.intersect()` returns tables with `VersionRange` (method
table) as their metatable. Although the calculated bounds are correct,
the results do not expose `VersionRange` methods.
Solution:
Construct intersection tables with `range_mt`, matching
`vim.version.range()`. Add assertions covering method access and
repeated intersection.
Problem:
`compute_hash()` reconstructs buffer contents with `fileformat` set to
`mac` using CRLF (`dos`) line endings. The resulting hash does not match
the file's bytes.
Solution:
Define the line ending for every supported file format. Use that mapping
when reconstructing buffer contents for hashing.
Problem:
When disabling, the loader list is traversed forwards while entries are
removed. As a result, some entries are skipped and remain active. Thus,
disabling `vim.loader` restores `_G.loadfile`, but does not fully
restore the original package loader chain.
Solution:
Traverse `package.loaders` in reverse when removing cached loaders.
Capture the original `package.loaders` list in the test, and assert that
the list is restored properly.
Problem:
If an edit cascades to cursor(s) that happen to be within a closed fold,
the edit acts on the fold itself (`:h fold-behavior`). E.g. "dd" deletes
the entire fold, not the cursor's line within the fold.
Solution:
Check `mc_replaying()` in `hasAnyFolding()`, so folds are ignored during
a multicursor cascade. This means multicursor always replays relative to
text *within* the fold.
Problem:
Fallback pynvim version lookup is broken since Vimscript-to-Lua rewrite.
- `vim.fs.basename()` returns the module filename instead of the
directory needed to discover adjacent metadata. This produces an
empty metadata list, hiding the remaining issues.
- `table.sort()` requires a Boolean comparator, while
`vim.version.cmp()` returns a number.
- `table.sort()` sorts in place and returns no value, so assigning its
result discards the metadata list.
Solution:
- Use `vim.fs.dirname()` to discover adjacent package metadata.
- Use `vim.version.gt()` as the descending Boolean comparator.
- Sort the metadata list in place.
This restores fallback version detection when `neovim.VERSION` is
unavailable.
Problem:
Coordinates-to-position conversion for the finish column in
`vim.hl.range()` checks the start column. This results in an incorrect
finish column when only one of the column coordinates is `vim.v.maxcol`.
Solution:
Check the finish column when converting the finish position. Update the
existing screen test so that a `vim.v.maxcol` finish highlights the
end-of-line marker, matching the existing `-1` behavior.
Problem: The floating-point `.d` number match and the two ellipsis
matches are slow: each begins with a look-behind, which cannot
be reduced to a fixed first character, so the automatic regexp
engine selects the slower NFA backend for them.
Solution: Force the backtracking engine with \%#=1 on those three
patterns; it evaluates the look-behind far more efficiently.
Highlighting is unchanged.
Measured with :syntime over a 40000 line corpus: the three affected
rules drop from ~0.13s to ~0.008s (about -93%), which cuts the total
syntax parse cost by ~10% (1.85s to 1.65s).

Problem: With 'wildmode' set to list:full the matches are listed but the
wildmenu is not shown, although it is "full" that starts
wildmenu mode (zeertzjq).
Solution: List the matches and show the menu, as the two behaviors in
the same phase ask for. The menu is left to the phases that
ask for it, so that "list" on its own still only lists
(Hirohito Higashi).

Other (squashed) commits:
fix(tui): emit ui_send output atomically with the frame
Problem:
tui_ui_send() writes directly to the TTY, bypassing the output buffer.
Sequences sent via nvim_ui_send() (e.g. kitty multiple-cursors, or
visual-dot-repeat) always arrive in a separate TTY write from the frame
they were computed for. This manifests as "tearing", or e.g. in the case
of multicursor the terminal renders text with stale cursor overlays.
Solution:
- tui_ui_send(): while a frame is being assembled (pending invalid
regions or buffered output), buffer instead of writing directly.
- Out-of-frame sends (tty queries, clear-on-disable) still write
immediately.
- mcursor.lua: emit the terminal-cursor update at the end of the redraw
cycle (`on_end`, when screen positions are final) instead of
vim.schedule().
Problem: options related to ui2 (like `fillchars` with `msgsep`) do not
take effect if set during startup after enabling ui2.
Solution: explicitly check just after startup if relevant options were
changed during startup.
Problem:
Folding range markers are overwritten while ranges are evaluated. A range ending on a row can hide another range starting there, and multiple nested ranges ending together emit only the innermost ending level.
Solution:
Track starts and the number of ends per row before emitting markers. Prefer starts on shared boundary rows and use the outermost level when nested ranges end together.

Confirming cmdwin with a UTF-8 character containing 0x80 does not complete the
command.
Solution:
Escape K_SPECIAL bytes while feeding the cmdwin input after confirmation.
Problem: C keywords are matched using the characters from 'iskeyword',
so changing that option highlights part of an identifier as a
keyword and leaves keywords containing an underscore
unhighlighted.
Solution: Set the keyword characters with ":syn iskeyword".

Problem: YAML syntax highlighting is slow; the yamlInteger and yamlFloat
rules alone account for over half of the parsing time.
Solution: The number, null and timestamp scalar patterns begin with a
lookbehind, which stops the regexp engine from using a
first-character search, so the automatic engine selects the
much slower NFA engine. Force the backtracking engine with
\%#=1 on these patterns for a large speedup with identical
matches (Jordan).
On a 40000-line YAML file the total :syntime drops by about 30%: the
yamlFloat rule goes from 0.61s to 0.17s and yamlInteger from 0.42s to 0.31s.
The engine override is applied only to the lookbehind-anchored number rules;
forcing it on the structural plain-scalar and mapping-key patterns regresses
them badly, so those are left on the automatic engine.
