Problem: termdebug :Break does not support `thread` and `if` arguments
Solution: extend :Break and :Tbreak to accept optional location, thread
{nr}, and if {expr} arguments (Yinzuo Jiang).

Problem:
In autocmd examples, using "args" as the event-object name is vague and
may be confused with a user-command.
Solution:
Use "ev" as the conventional event-object name.
Problem:
- According to [pipx
documentation](https://pipx.pypa.io/stable/docs/#pipx-install), `pipx
install` doesn't have --upgrade argument. Running `pipx install
--upgrade pynvim` results in an error "unrecognized arguments:
--upgrade"
- In file if_pyth.txt:317, it says "Implementation is ... written in C".
This is not true for Nvim, since find_module logic of Nvim's Python
interface is implemented in Python.
(fdaae821a9/pynvim/plugin/script_host.py (L217))
- $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS has been deprecated.
- `:Next` is a core command, not termdebug plugin command. Termdebug
uses `:Over` to send command `next` to gdb
Solution:
- Just use `pipx install pynvim`
vim-patch:536ee91: runtime(doc): add termdebug tag, remove term "floating window"
Problem:
- When I type `:h termdebug`, I will expect to see the introduction of
the termdebug plugin. But instead, it shows me document of
`termdebug_wide`, and I have to scroll up quite much to find the
introduction.
- `:h popup` says `floating-window`? Why? As I have tried both features
(of Vim and Neovim), I think they are _very different_ things, even
more different than job features in Vim and Neovim.
Solution:
- In `:h terminal.txt`, add tag `*termdebug*` to the introduction of
termdebug plugin.
- In `:h popup.txt`, "floating window" -> "popup window".

Change the title ":Termdebug plugin" to simply ":Termdebug", otherwise
the line is too long.

- :retab! line 1 and line 4 (main page heading).
- Use four columns whitespace before "by [Author]" in the user manual
heading to match the reference manual formatting.
- double space headings.

Use double sentence spacing and wrap lines at 'textwidth'. Code
examples and tables were not wrapped unless this had already been done
locally.

Problem: termdebug: not enough ways to configure breakpoints
Solution: add the termdebug_config['signs'] config setting, rework the
termdebug test cases (Dimitry Ishenko)
Allow to configure custom breakpoint signs so one can do something like
this:
```vim
let g:termdebug_config['signs'] = ['>1', '>2', '>3', '>4', '>5', '>6', '>7', '>8', '>9']
let g:termdebug_config['sign'] = '>>'
```
where the first 9 breakpoints will have their own signs and the rest
will be the same (>>).
While at it, rework the test for the termdebug plugin:
- Added test for g:termdebug_config['signs'].
- Added test for g:termdebug_config['sign'].
- Moved test for g:termdebug_config['sign_decimal'] into
Test_termdebug_basic()

The "end" termcode is not actually needed for our purposes. And the
suggested $PS1 has trouble with bash's "reverse find" (CTRL-r) feature,
probably because I did it wrong...
When a plugin registers a TermRequest handler there is currently no way
for the handler to know where the terminal's cursor position was when
the sequence was received. This is often useful information, e.g. for
OSC 133 sequences which are used to annotate shell prompts.
Modify the event data for the TermRequest autocommand to be a table
instead of just a string. The "sequence" field of the table contains the
sequence string and the "cursor" field contains the cursor
position when the sequence was received.
To maintain consistency between TermRequest and TermResponse (and to
future proof the latter), TermResponse's event data is also updated to
be a table with a "sequence" field.
BREAKING CHANGE: event data for TermRequest and TermResponse is now a
table
Problem:
`yx` uses "y" prefix, which shadows a builtin operator.
Solution:
Use `g=` (in the form of `g==` currently), drawing from precedent of
CTRL-= and 'tpope/vim-scriptease'.
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`.
When a terminal application running inside the terminal emulator sets
the cursor shape or blink status of the cursor, update the cursor in the
parent terminal to match.
This removes the "virtual cursor" that has been in use by the terminal
emulator since the beginning. The original rationale for using the
virtual cursor was to avoid having to support additional UI methods to
change the cursor color for other (non-TUI) UIs, instead relying on the
TermCursor and TermCursorNC highlight groups.
The TermCursor highlight group is now used in the default 'guicursor'
value, which has a new entry for Terminal mode. However, the
TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported: since terminal
windows now use the real cursor, when the window is not focused there is
no cursor displayed in the window at all, so there is nothing to
highlight. Users can still use the StatusLineTermNC highlight group to
differentiate non-focused terminal windows.
BREAKING CHANGE: The TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported.
Problem:
It has long been a convention that references to the builtin terminal UI
should mention "tui", not "term", in order to avoid ambiguity vs the
builtin `:terminal` feature. The final step was to rename term.txt;
let's that step.
Solution:
- rename term.txt => tui.txt
- rename nvim_terminal_emulator.txt => terminal.txt
- `gen_help_html.lua`: generate redirects for renamed pages.
