Problem: `fnamemodify(..., ':h')` mishandles POSIX leading slash runs longer than `//`.
Solution: Collapse those slash runs to `/` before computing the head.
Problem:
On Windows, path separators may become inconsistent for various reasons,
which makes normalization quite painful.
Solution:
Normalize paths to `/` at the entry boundaries and always use it
internally, converting back only in rare cases where `\` is really
needed (e.g. cmd.exe/bat scripts?).
This is the first commit in a series of incremental steps.
Note:
* some funcs won't respect shellslash. e.g. `expand/fnamemodify`
* some funcs still respect shellslash, but will be updated in a follow
PR. e.g. `ex_pwd/f_chdir/f_getcwd`
* uv's built-in funcs always return `\`. e.g. `uv.cwd/uv.exepath`

Problem:
On windows, if a drive-relative path doesn't contain a slash,
`path_to_absolute` can't split out the relative component, causing
expansion to fails. e.g., `c:` `c:.` `c:..` `c:foo.md`
Solution:
For these cases, we can pass letter and colon to `path_full_dir_name`.
Notably, `..` is included as well.
if that relative path exists, it can be expanded correctly.
This is a better way to prevent parallel tests from interfering with
each other, as there are many ways files can be created and deleted in
tests, so enforcing different file names is hard.
Using $TMPDIR can also work in most cases, but 'backipskip' etc. have
special defaults for $TMPDIR.
Symlink runtime/, src/, test/ and README.md to Xtest_xdg dir to make
tests more convenient (and symlinking test/ is required for busted).
Also, use README.md instead of test/README.md in the Ex mode inccommand
test, as test/README.md no longer contains 'N' char.
- `alter_slashes` belongs in `testutil.lua`, not `testnvim.lua`.
- `alter_slashes` is an unusual name. Rename it to `fix_slashes`.
- invert its behavior, to emphasize that `/` slashes are the preferred,
pervasive convention, not `\` slashes.
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.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
Problem:
Subdirectories like "visual", "insert", "normal" encourage people to
separate *related* tests for no good reason. Typically the _mode_ is
not the relevant topic of a test (and when it is, _then_ create
an appropriate describe() or it()).
Solution:
- Delete the various `test/functional/<mode>/` subdirectories, move
their tests to more meaningful topics.
- Rename `…/normal/` to `…/editor/`.
- Move or merge `…/visual/*` and `…/insert/*` tests into here where
appropriate.
- Rename `…/eval/` to `…/vimscript/`.
- Move `…/viml/*` into here also.
* test(reorg): insert/* => editor/mode_insert_spec.lua
* test(reorg): cmdline/* => editor/mode_cmdline_spec.lua
* test(reorg): eval core tests => eval_spec.lua
