Instead of looping over all captured nodes, just take the end range from
the last node in the list. This uses the fact that nodes returned by
iter_matches are ordered by their range (earlier to later).
Problem: `has-ancestor?` is O(n²) for the depth of the tree since it iterates over each of the node's ancestors (bottom-up), and each ancestor takes O(n) time.
This happens because tree-sitter's nodes don't store their parent nodes, and the tree is searched (top-down) each time a new parent is requested.
Solution: Make use of new `ts_node_child_containing_descendant()` in tree-sitter v0.22.6 (which is now the minimum required version) to rewrite the `has-ancestor?` predicate in C to become O(n).
For a sample file, decreases the time taken by `has-ancestor?` from 360ms to 6ms.
Instead of painfully messing with timing to determine if queries were
reparsed, we can simply keep a counter next to the call to ts_query_new
Also memoization had a hidden dependency on the garbage collection of
the the key, a hash value which never is kept around in memory. this was
done intentionally as the hash does not capture all relevant state for the
query (external included files) even if actual query objects still
would be reachable in memory. To make the test fully deterministic in
CI, we explicitly control GC.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
Move test cases that are more about treesitter query API rather than
parser API or LanguageTree out of "treesitter/parser_spec", and collect
them in another test suite "treesitter/query_spec".
