Adds new API helper macros `CSTR_AS_OBJ()`, `STATIC_CSTR_AS_OBJ()`, and `STATIC_CSTR_TO_OBJ()`, which cleans up a lot of the current code. These macros will also be used extensively in the upcoming option refactor PRs because then API Objects will be used to get/set options. This PR also modifies pre-existing code to use old API helper macros like `CSTR_TO_OBJ()` to make them cleaner.
This reduces the total number of khash_t instantiations from 22 to 8.
Make the khash internal functions take the size of values as a runtime
parameter. This is abstracted with typesafe Map containers which
are still specialized for both key, value type.
Introduce `Set(key)` type for when there is no value.
Refactor shada.c to use Map/Set instead of khash directly.
This requires `map_ref` operation to be more flexible.
Return pointers to both key and value, plus an indicator for new_item.
As a bonus, `map_key` is now redundant.
Instead of Map(cstr_t, FileMarks), use a pointer map as the FileMarks struct is
humongous.
Make `event_strings` actually work like an intern pool instead of wtf it
was doing before.
Problem: no way of getting all highlight group definitions in a namespace.
Solution: add `nvim_get_hl()`, deprecate `nvim_get_hl_by_name()` and `nvim_get_hl_by_id()`.
Problem:
has('gui_running') is still common in the wild and our answer has
changed over time, causing frustration.

Solution:
Use stdin_tty/stdout_tty to decide if a UI is (not) a GUI.
While the new RPC encoder/decoder implementation in general should have
less overhead than the deleted UIBridge serializer previously used for
the TUI, it regresses on redraw latency in one important aspect.
The old bridge implementation allowed the TUI to process a
previous screen line internally in parallel with the main thread
rendering the next one in win_line etc. As printing the escape
sequences in highlighted cells has a considerable hit in profiles,
this has a substantial effect on redraw latency. The RPC implementation,
however, waits with sending any data until either a flush, or the buffer is full.
This change lowers the granularity of communication again, using an
adjustable threshold counted in number of cell events (discounting
long repeats and clearing as maximum a single extra event).
The current value is guesstimated to something simple on a reasonable
scale, which should be bigger than a single line, but multiple events
for a big multi-window screen.
- The defined interface for the UI is only the RPC protocol. The original
UI interface as an array of function pointers fill no function.
- On the server, all the UI:s are all RPC channels.
- ui.c is only used on the server.
- The compositor is a preprocessing step for single-grid UI:s
- on the client, ui_client and tui talk directly to each other
- we still do module separation, as ui_client.c could form the basis
of a libnvim client module later.
Items for later PR:s
- vim.ui_attach is still an unhappy child, reconsider based on plugin experience.
- the flags in ui_events.in.h are still a mess. Can be simplified now.
- UX for remote attachment needs more work.
- startup for client can be simplified further (think of the millisecs we can save)
Allow Include What You Use to remove unnecessary includes and only
include what is necessary. This helps with reducing compilation times
and makes it easier to visualise which dependencies are actually
required.
Work on https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/549, but doesn't close
it since this only works fully for .c files and not headers.

Solution: Use a nicer names.

vim-patch:8.2.0559: clearing a struct is verbose
Problem: Clearing a struct is verbose.
Solution: Define and use CLEAR_FIELD() and CLEAR_POINTER().

Note for external UIs: Nvim can now emit multiple "redraw" event batches
before a final "flush" event is received. To retain existing behavior,
clients should make sure to update visible state at an explicit "flush"
event, not just the end of a "redraw" batch of event.
* Get rid of copy_object() blizzard in the auto-generated ui_event layer
* Special case "grid_line" by encoding screen state directly to
msgpack events with no intermediate API events.
* Get rid of the arcane notion of referring to the screen as the "shell"
* Array and Dictionary are kvec_t:s, so define them as such.
* Allow kvec_t:s, such as Arrays and Dictionaries, to be allocated with
a predetermined size within an arena.
* Eliminate redundant capacity checking when filling such kvec_t:s
with values.
