Before now, Nvim always degrades UI capabilities to the lowest-common
denominator. For example, if any connected UI has `ext_messages=false`
then `ext_messages=true` requested by any other connected UI is ignored.
Now `nvim_ui_attach()` supports `override=true`, which flips the
behavior: if any UI requests an `ext_*` UI capability then the
capability is enabled (and the legacy behavior is disabled).
Legacy UIs will be broken while a `override=true` UI is connected, but
it's useful for debugging: you can type into the TUI and observe the UI
events from another connected (UI) client. And the legacy UI will
"recover" after the `override=true` UI disconnects.
Example using pynvim:
>>> n.ui_attach(2048, 2048, rgb=True, override=True, ext_multigrid=True, ext_messages=True, ext_popupmenu=True)
>>> while True: n.next_message();
Problem: MSVC files are no longer useful for debugging. Newer Visual
Studio versions cannot read them.
Solution: Delete the files. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#4357)

- Configuring the translation domain allows calculating and showing the translation states of each language
- OARS gives Neovim a nice ‘safe for children’ badge
- Releases allow displaying release info/update frequency
Problem: No simple way to label quickfix entries.
Solution: Add the "module" item, to be used instead of the file name for
display purposes. (Martin Szamotulski)

Problem: Asking about existing swap file unnecessarily.
Solution: When it is safe, delete the swap file. Remove
HAS_SWAP_EXISTS_ACTION, it is always defined. (closesvim/vim#1237)

On Windows we store non-config data in "$XDG_DATA_HOME/nvim-data". But
the "…/site" items in 'runtimepath' did not correctly point to that
location, they used "…/nvim/site".
Fix the init logic to use "…/nvim-data/site".

Problem: Terminal debugger jumps to non-existing file.
Solution: Check that the file exists. Add an option to make the Vim wide
wide. Fix removing highlight groups.

Nvim notes:
- Nvim does not support "-u DEFAULTS", that change is omitted.
- Also add 'shadafile' as an alias to 'viminfofile'.
- Deprecate 'viminfofile'.
Problem: Not easy to start Vim cleanly without changing the viminfo file.
Not possible to know whether the -i command line flag was used.
Solution: Add the --clean command line argument. Add the 'viminfofile'
option. Add "-u DEFAULTS".

Problem: An error in a timer can make Vim unusable.
Solution: Don't set the error flag or exception from a timer. Stop a timer
if it causes an error 3 out of 3 times. Discard an exception
caused inside a timer.

Problem: Calling :stopinsert from RPC while in terminal-mode does not
go back to normal-mode.
Solution: Implement a check() handler for state_enter(), adapted from

- input: recognize <kEqual>, <kComma>
- terminal.c: If we need to support function key, a change must be made
in libvtermkey. Currently, it emulates strictly VT220 terminal, and
returning numeric value in 'normal' mode is the expected behaviour.
