Before this commit, if user does this:
let g:node_host_prog = '~/.nvm/versions/node/v11.3.0/bin/neovim-node-host'
the "~/" is not expanded to user's home directory.
`:help g:ruby_host_prog` suggests a path with "~/" so technically we
already claimed to support this.
closes https://github.com/neovim/node-client/issues/102
For each package manager,
1. Check if they are executable before starting a job.
2. Check if the job opts are set before checking the job status
TODO: Validate the job id.
Prioritize npm because it's faster than yarn.
Reindent the code to 2-space indent.
If `jobstart()` fails, then the subsequent `rpcrequest()` will throw due
to an invalid channel id. This causes `job.stderr` not to exist, so we
throw another exception when trying to dump the job's stderr.

This obfuscates the actual problem.
For back-compat, :CheckHealth runs :checkhealth. But don't define
:CheckHealth explicitly, it adds noise to wildmenu completion.
Completion of healthchecks doesn't yet work with :checkhealth, this is
a regression but it needs to be implemented for :checkhealth rather than
keeping :CheckHealth around.
ci: install nodejs 8 in Appveyor, Travis
provider: check node version for debug support
Resolve https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/7577#issuecomment-350590592 for Unix.
provider: test if nodejs in ci supports --inspect-brk
nodejs host for neovim requires nodejs 6+ to work properly.
nodejs 6.12+ or 7.6+ is required for debug support via `node --inspect-brk`.
provider: run cli.js of nodejs host directly
npm shims are useless because the user cannot set node to debug mode via
--inspect-brk. This is problematic on Windows which use batchfiles and
shell scripts to compensate for not supporting shebang.
The patch uses `npm root -g` to get the absolute path of the global npm
modules. If that fails, then the user did not install neovim npm package
globally. Use that absolute path to find `neovim/bin/cli.js`, which is
what the npm shim actually runs with node. glob() is for a simple file
check in case bin/ is removed because the npm shims are ignored now.
neovim-ruby-host is a ruby script.
neovim-node-host is a shell script.
Both don't work in cmd.exe so gem and npm provide batchfile shims.
Return the full path of these shims, cmd.exe knows better what to do with these files.
