Add new "splice" interface for tracking buffer changes at the byte
level. This will later be reused for byte-resolution buffer updates.
(Implementation has been started, but using undocumented "_on_bytes"
option now as interface hasn't been finalized).
Use this interface to improve many edge cases of extmark adjustment.
Changed tests indicate previously incorrect behavior. Adding tests for
more edge cases will be follow-up work (overlaps on_bytes tests)
Don't consider creation/deletion of marks an undoable event by itself.
This behavior was never documented, and imposes complexity for little gain.
Add nvim__buf_add_decoration temporary API for direct access to the new
implementation. This should be refactored into a proper API for
decorations, probably involving a huge dict.
fixes#11598
Problem: Cannot recover from a swap file.
Solution: Do not expand environment variables in the swap file name.
Do not check the extension when we already know a file is a swap
file. (Ken Takata, closes 4415, closesvim/vim#4369)

Problem:
During a refactor long ago, we changed the `getdigits_*` familiy of
functions to abort on overflow. But this is often wrong, because many
of these codepaths are handling user input.
Solution:
Decide at each call-site whether to use "strict" mode.
fix#5555
Problem: :wall gives an errof for a terminal window. (Marius Gedminas)
Solution: Don't try writing a buffer that can't be written. (Yasuhiro
Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#2190)

Problem: Get "no write since last change" error in terminal window.
Solution: Use another message when closing a terminal window. Make ":quit!"
also end the job.

Problem: Functionality for signs is spread out over several files.
Solution: Move most of the sign functionality into sign.c. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3751)

Problem: The ex_sign() function is too long.
Solution: Refactor the function. Add a bit more testing. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3745)

Problem: Deleting signs and completion for :sign is insufficient.
Solution: Add deleting signs in a specified or any group from the current
cursor location. Add group and priority to sign command
completion. Add tests for different sign unplace commands. Update
help text. Add tests for sign jump with group. Update help for
sign jump. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3731)

Problem: Using sign group names is inefficient.
Solution: Store group names in a hash table and use a reference to them.
Also remove unnecessary use of ":exe" from the tests. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3715)

Problem: Placing signs can be complicated.
Solution: Add functions for defining and placing signs. Introduce a group
name to avoid different plugins using the same signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3652)

Problem: Buffer left 'nomodifiable' after :substitute. (Ingo Karkat)
Solution: Save the value of 'modifiable' earlier' (Christian Brabandt,
closesvim/vim#4403)
80341bcd89
'inccommand' invokes ex_substitute() to build its "preview". During the
brief (~millisecond) time it takes to execute that function, the buffer
is "dirty" (its contents are invalid). Events must not be handled during
this time, else they would see a temporary state which is not the true,
logical state of the buffer.
ref #9777
Problem: When 'hlsearch' is set and matching with the last search pattern
is very slow, Vim becomes unusable. Cannot quit search by
pressing CTRL-C.
Solution: When the search times out set a flag and don't try again. Check
for timeout and CTRL-C in NFA loop that adds states.

Problem: Sorting large numbers is not tested and does not work properly.
Solution: Add test. Fix comparing lines with and without a number.
