Problem:
The `nvim_notify` API (note: unrelated to `vim.notify()` Lua API) was
not given any real motivation in https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/13843
There are, and were, idiomatic and ergonomic alternatives already.
Solution:
Deprecate `nvim_notify`.
Problem: We want to deprecate `nvim_err_write(ln)()` but there is no
obvious replacement (from Lua). Meanwhile we already have
`nvim_echo()` with an `opts` argument.
Solution: Add `err` argument to `nvim_echo()` that directly maps to
`:echoerr`.
Problem: filetype: TI assembly files are not recognized
Solution: inspect '*.sa' and assembly files and detect TI assembly
files, include filetype plugin and syntax script for TI
assembly files (Wu, Zhenyu)

Problem: incorrect return type doc causes luals `Annotations specify that at most 0 return value(s) are required, found 1 returned here instead.` diagnosis
Solution: correct return type doc
Problem: filetype: shaderslang files are not detected
Solution: detect '*.slang' files as shaderslang filetype,
include a filetype and syntax script (mtvare6)

**Problem:** The treesitter `foldexpr` calls `get_parser()` for each
line in the buffer when calculating folds. This can be incredibly slow
for buffers where a parser cannot be found (because the result is not
cached), and exponentially more so when the user has many
`runtimepath`s.
**Solution:** Only fetch the parser when it is needed; that is, only
when initializing fold data for a buffer.

Problem: open_floating_preview() may be hidden behind current window if
that is floating and has a higher zindex.
Solution: Open floating preview with zindex higher than current window.
Problem: filetype: 'jj' filetype is a bit imprecise
Solution: rename 'jj' filetype to 'jjdescription'

Problem: Prompts are emitted as messages events, where cmdline events
are more appropriate. The user input is also emitted as
message events in fast context, so cannot be displayed with
vim.ui_attach().
Solution: Prompt for user input through cmdline prompts.
* Cancel watcher in the "force" case.
* Cancel watcher outside the async callback. It seems nvim doesn't wait
async jobs on quitting, leaving detached inotifywait processes.
* Clean up cancelling callbacks.
Allows to retrieve the configuration as it will be used by `lsp.enable`
- including the parts merged from `*` and rtp.
This is useful for explicit startup control
(`vim.lsp.start(vim.lsp.config[name])`)

Problem: TI linker files are not recognized
Solution: inspect '*.cmd' files and detect TI linker files
as 'lnk' filetype, include a lnk ftplugin and syntax
script (Wu, Zhenyu)

vim-patch:9.1.0983: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
Problem: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
(Evgeni Chasnovski)
Solution: return the visible items via the "matches" key for
complete_info() (glepnir)
fixes: vim/vim#10007closes: vim/vim#16307d4088edae2
Problem: autocmd to refresh folds always uses the current buffer if the
option type is local. However, the current buffer may not have a parser,
and thus the assert that checks for a parser could fail.
Solution: check if the foldinfo contains the buffer, and only refresh if
so.
Problem: filetype: sh filetype set when detecting the use of bash
Solution: when bash is detected, use 'bash' filetype instead

Problem: There is currently no way to check if a given path is absolute or convert a relative path to an absolute path through the Lua stdlib. `vim.fs.joinpath` does not work when the path is absolute. There is also currently no way to resolve `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
Solution: Add `vim.fs.abspath`, which allows converting any path to an absolute path. This also allows checking if current path is absolute by doing `vim.fs.abspath(path) == path`. It also has support for `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
If root_dir is a function it is evaluated when the client is created to
determine the root directory.
This enables dynamically determining the root directory based on e.g.
project or directory structure (example: finding a parent Cargo.toml
file that contains "[workspace]" in a Rust project).
Problem: filetype: hy history files are not recognized
Solution: detect '*.hy', '.hy-history' files as hy filetype,
detect '.lips_repl_history' files are scheme filetype
