Problem:
Can't get a command's description from nvim_get_commands when
cmd is string.
Solution:
Returns "desc" field in nvim_get_commands.
`definition` is now empty when cmd is function type.
Problem:
Cannot remove a `@conceal` highlight when defined in highlights.scm.
Solution:
Support a `@noconceal` highlight that works similarly to `@nospell` where it
overrides the conceal set on the range to remove it. Additionally, can
set the conceal metadata field to false for the same behavior.
Problem: fg_indexed/bg_indexed were dropped from nvim_get_hl output due
to a wrong short_keys guard. HL_FG_INDEXED also wasn't cleared in
hl_blend_attrs, and HLATTRS_DICT_SIZE was too small.
Solution: Remove the short_keys guard, clear HL_FG_INDEXED in
hl_blend_attrs, bump HLATTRS_DICT_SIZE to 24, and clarify docs that
these flags mean rgb is an approximation of the cterm palette index.
Problem:
Too much boilerplate needed to use Lua to impl an excmd or f_xx
function.
Solution:
- Add `nlua_call_vimfn` which takes the args typval, executes
Lua, and returns a typval.
- refactor(excmd): lua impl for :log, :lsp
Problem:
- Not obvious which _meta/ are generated and which should be edited
manually.
- The require guard (`error('Cannot require a meta file')`) is not
consistently present in all meta files.
Solution:
- Update headers.
- Add require() guard to all meta files.
- Rename generated meta files with `.gen.lua`.
Problem:
`:help dev-name-common` states that "buf" should be used instead of
"buffer" but there are cases where buffer is mentioned in the lua API.
Solution:
- Rename occurrences of "buffer" to "buf" for consistency with the
documentation.
- Support (but deprecate) "buffer" for backwards compatibility.

- Render Lua types in api.txt.
- Added `DictAs(name)` API type which acts the same as `Dict` (no parens)
when generating the dispatchers, but acts the same as `Dict(name)`
when generating docs.
- Added `Tuple(...)` API type which is the treated the as `Array` for
generating the dispatchers, but is used to document richer types.
- Added `Enum(...)` API type to better document enums
- Improve typing of some API functions.
- Improve c_grammar to properly parse API types and replace string pattern
logic in the parsers.
- Removed all the hardcoded type overrides in gen_eval_files.lua
