Problem: set winbar on a floating window which only have one row will
cause crash.
Solution: when new floating window only have one room don't copy winbar
from target window"
Fix#19464
Problem: Number and statuscolumn highlighting for virtual lines does
not take always take on numhl highlights.
Solution: Apply the appropriate numhl highlight to the number/statuscolumn
of virtual lines, fetching the numhl highlight of the line above
for `virt_line_above == false` lines.
Problem: completion doesn't work with multi lines
(Łukasz Jan Niemier)
Solution: handle linebreaks in completion code as expected

Problem: no sanitize check when running linematch
Solution: add sanitize check before applying the linematch algorithm,
similar to diff_find_change() (Jonathon)

Problem:
When an evaluation {-item calls `nvim_eval_statusline()`, that nested
call may overwrite the same memory used for `stl_items`.
Solution:
Make `curitem` static and use it to compute an offset to avoid
overwriting `stl_items` in nested calls to `build_stl_str_hl()`. Move
miscellaneous statusline tests into `describe()` block.
Problem:
`nvim_win_set_config` cannot set the title and footer independently.
When only one is given, the other is reset to the default of "left".
Solution:
Reuse existing title/footer value if not provided.
Problem: Right aligned virtual text can cover up buffer text if virtual
text is too long
Solution: An additional option for `virt_text_pos` called
`eol_right_align` has been added to truncate virtual text if it would
have otherwise covered up buffer text. This ensures the virtual text
extends no further left than EOL.
Problem: A right-click on the 'statuscolumn' does not open the
popupmenu, even if a cell without a clickdef is clicked.
Clicking the %C fold item does not open/close the fold.
Solution: Open the popupmenu when there is no clickdef like right-clicking
the sign/numbercolumn does. Fill "linebuf_vcol" when drawing the
'statuscolumn' to handle foldcolumn item clicks.
Problem: Combined highlighting was not applied to nvim_eval_statusline(),
and 'statuscolumn' sign segment/numhl highlights.
Solution: Add an additional `groups` element to the return value of
`nvim_eval_statusline()->highlights`. This is an array of stacked
highlight groups (highest priority last). Also resolve combined
highlights for the 'statuscolumn' sign segment/numhl highlights.
Expose/synchronize some drawline.c logic that is now mimicked in
three different places.
This has been possible in the "backend" for a while but
API was missing.
Followup: we will need a `details2=true` mode for `nvim_get_hl_id_by_name`
to return information in a way forward compatible with even further
enhancements.
Problem:
Incremental preview is not allowed on 'nomodifiable' buffers.
Solution:
- Allow preview on 'nomodifiable' buffers.
- Restore the 'modifiable' option in case the preview function changes it.
Problem: Anchoring a floating window to the tabline and laststatus is
cumbersome; requiring autocommands and looping over all
windows/tabpages.
Solution: Add new "tabline" and "laststatus" options to the `relative`
field of nvim_open_win() to place a window relative to.
Problem: Popup menu internal error with some abbr in completion item.
Solution: Don't compute attributes when there is no corresponding text.
Reduce indent in pum_redraw() while at it (zeertzjq).

Problem: completion text is highlighted even with no pattern found
Solution: use ins_compl_leader_len() instead of checking

Problem: ComplMatchIns may highlight wrong text
Solution: don't highlight in case of fuzzy match,
skip-highlight when not inserting anything

Problem: We want to deprecate `nvim_err_write(ln)()` but there is no
obvious replacement (from Lua). Meanwhile we already have
`nvim_echo()` with an `opts` argument.
Solution: Add `err` argument to `nvim_echo()` that directly maps to
`:echoerr`.
If a "on_lines" callback changes the structure of the marktree, the
iterator (which is used for an entire window viewport) might now
point to invalid memory. Restore the iterator to the beginning of the
line in this case.
fixes#29484
Problem: when popup preview buffer has filetype like markdown and ts
is enabled, the extmark clean and update not correct, if add the extmark
sync there has lots of duplicate codes like nvim_buf_set_lines.
Solution: use nvim_buf_set_lines api internally to set info to popup
preview buffer.
Problem:
- `n.spawn()` is misleading because it also connects RPC, it's not just
"spawning" a process.
- It's confusing that `n.spawn()` and `n.spawn_argv()` are separate.
Solution:
- Replace `n.spawn()`/`n.spawn_argv()` with a single function `n.new_session()`.
This name aligns with the existing functions `n.set_session`/`n.get_session`.
- Note: removes direct handling of `prepend_argv`, but I doubt that was
important or intentional. If callers want to control use of `prepend_argv`
then we should add a new flag to `test.session.Opts`.
- Move `keep` to first parameter of `n.new_session()`.
- Add a `merge` flag to `test.session.Opts`
- Mark `_new_argv()` as private. Test should use clear/new_session/spawn_wait
instead.
Problem: Message grid newline formatting based on `msg_col` is not
utilized with ext_messages.
Solution: Increment `msg_col` with the cell width of the chunk. Allowing
message code that uses `msg_col` to determine when to place a
newline to do so. E.g. when the message goes beyond `Columns`;
this is not necessarily where the ext_messages implementation
would want to place a newline, but it is a best guess. Message
parsing and manipulation is still possible.
Problem: Prompts are emitted as messages events, where cmdline events
are more appropriate. The user input is also emitted as
message events in fast context, so cannot be displayed with
vim.ui_attach().
Solution: Prompt for user input through cmdline prompts.
Problem: completion may crash, completion highlight wrong with preview
window (after v9.1.0954)
Solution: correctly calculate scroll offset, check for preview window
when adding extra highlighting
(glepnir)
when there have a preview window prepare_tagpreview
will change curwin to preview window and this may cause
ComplMatchIns check condition not correct. check wp is curwin
and also the type of wp is not a preview or poup info

Problem: Unable to tell what highlight the prompt part of a
cmdline_show event should have, and whether cmdline_hide was
emitted after aborting.
Solution: Add additional arguments hl_id to cmdline_show, and abort to
cmdline_hide.
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`.
Also avoid going down message callstack with empty message, and remove expected grid for some tests where it did not change, and we are just testing for expected messages.
