- new feature: if the first character of 'keywordprg' is ":", the
command is invoked as a Vim ex-command prefixed with [count].
- change default 'keywordprg' to :Man
- Improve the implementation of deferred/immediate events.
- Use the new queue module to change how/when events are queued/processed by
giving a private queue to each emitter.
- Immediate events(which only exist to break uv_run recursion) are now
represented in the `loop->fast_events` queue.
- Events pushed to child queues are propagated to the event loop main queue and
processed as K_EVENT keys.
- Add event loop abstraction module under src/nvim/event. The
src/nvim/event/loop module replaces src/nvim/os/event
- Remove direct dependency on libuv signal/timer API and use the new abstraction
instead.
- Replace all references to uv_default_loop() by &loop.uv, a new global variable
that wraps libuv main event loop but allows the event loop functions to be
reused in other contexts.
Problem: Redrawing problem with 'relativenumber' and 'linebreak'.
Solution: Temporarily reset 'linebreak' and restore it in more places.

After left clicking on a tab in the tabline, the "in_tab_line" variable wasn't
set to 'false' and every following mouse action assumed still being on the
tabline which messed up visual selection etc.
We already use wrappers for allocation, the new `xfree` function is the
equivalent for deallocation and provides a way to fully replace the malloc
implementation used by Neovim.
Problem: A search with end offset gets stuck at end of file. (Gary Johnson)
Solution: When a search doesn't move the cursor repeat it with a higher
count. (Christian Brabandt)

Switching cursor off is only necessary in two occasions:
- When redrawing to avoid terminal flickering
- When the editor is busy
The first can now be handled by the TUI, so most calls to ui_cursor_off can be
removed from the core.
So, before this commit it was only necessary to switch the cursor off to notify
the user that nvim was running some long operation. Now the cursor_{on,off}
functions have been replaced by busy_{stop,start} which can be handled in a
UI-specific way(turning the cursor off or showing a busy indicator, for
example).
To make things even more simpler, nvim is always busy except when waiting for
user input or other asynchronous events: It automatically switches to a non-busy
state when the event loop is about to be entered for more than 100 milliseconds.
`ui_busy_start` can be called when its not desired to change the busy state in
the event loop (As its now done by functions that perform blocking shell
invocations).
- Removed term.c, term.h and term_defs.h
- Tests for T_* values were removed. screen.c was simplified as a
consequence(the best strategy for drawing is implemented in the UI layer)
- Redraw functions now call ui.c functions directly. Updates are flushed with
`ui_flush()`
- Removed all termcap options(they now return empty strings for compatibility)
- &term/&ttybuiltin options return a constant value(nvim)
- &t_Co is still available, but it mirrors t_colors directly
- Remove cursor tracking from screen.c and the `screen_start` function. Now the
UI is expected to maintain cursor state across any call, and reset it when
resized.
- Remove unused code
- Remove abstract_ui global, now it is always active
- Remove some terminal handling code
- Remove unused functions
- Remove HAVE_TGETENT/TERMINFO/TERMIOS/IOCTL #ifdefs
- Remove tgetent/terminfo from version.c
- Remove curses/terminfo dependencies
- Only start/stop termcap when starting/exiting the program
- msg_use_printf will return true if there are no attached UIs(
messages will be written to stdout)
- Remove `ex_winpos`(implement `:winpos` with `ex_ni`)
Problem : Negative array index read @ 909.
Diagnostic : False positive.
Rationale : Suggested error path assigns a negative value to idx at
line 836 (`idx = find_command(ca.cmdchar);`). That's
impossible, as `ca.cmdchar` is set to Ctrl_BSL just two
lines above, so we know that value will be in the table.
Resolution : Assert idx >= 0.
If you Google for this phrase found in the Vim documentation you'll find
almost exclusively hits from the Vim documentation. I think changing
"halfway a line" to "halfway through a line" makes more sense.
There seems to be an pervasive odd use of the word 'halfway' in the
original docs which I'm updating everywhere.
Problem : Out-of-bound read from a buffer.
Diagnostic : False positive.
Rationale : nv_max_linear should always be less than nv_cmd_idx size
(NV_CMDS_SIZE).
Resolution : Assert rationale.

Problem: When 'showbreak' is used "gj" may move to the wrong
position. (Nazri Ramliy)
Solution: Adjust virtcol when 'showbreak' is set. (Christian Brabandt)
