Problem: There is no way for a `vim.ui.input` caller to indicate for
which scope the input is. As in "This input is for something at cursor
scope". This information can be useful for `vim.ui.input`
implementation to tweak its behavior and presentation:
- Show different floating window depending on the scope. For example:
- Near cursor for "cursor" scope.
- At line start for "line" scope.
- In window corner for "buffer" and "window" scopes.
- In whole editor corner for "tabpage", "editor", "project" scopes.
- Navigate through history only for inputs with the same scope.
Solution: Document new `opts.scope` for `vim.ui.input`. Use it in the
codebase.
Problem: `fnamemodify(..., ':h')` mishandles POSIX leading slash runs longer than `//`.
Solution: Collapse those slash runs to `/` before computing the head.
Problem:
2d795face6 added support for tab-local options ('cmdheight')
to `nvim_get_option_value`, but not to:
nvim_get_option_info2()
nvim_set_option_value(…, { tab = … })
gettabwinvar()
Solution:
- Update `options.lua` to model tab-local options. Introduce `kOptScopeTab`.
- Handle tab scope in the options layer so it works for all options APIs.
Note:
- No change to `gettabvar()`. Not sure if needed/wanted.
fix https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/31140
The presence `djangoOperators` in the file `syntax/django.vim` and
having the highlight function with a `match` statement leads to a
highlight spill-over with other elements defined in `syntax/html.vim`.
To avoid the highlight spill-over declare a region called
`djangoTagBlockNaive` to limit `djangoOperator` to only be matched
within.

Summary: Add highlight of comparison operators resolving FIXME left by maintainer.
How it works: By creating a the variable ‘djangoOperator’ with the regex
and defining to only highlight when enclosed within ‘djangoTag’ and
‘djangoVarBlock’ the highlight works as expected.
Note: Note even though the maintainer had left the note “FIXME ==, !=,
<, >, <=, and >= should be djangoStatements” the results do work
as I think he intended even though the variable ‘djangoOperator’ had to
be created to achieve the result. By doing it this way the highlight
process does not get confused depending on the spacing of the comparison
operator. Example: {{ x>=10 }} and {{ x >= 10 }} work as expected.
Add tags related to localization.

Problem:
No way to handle a "tab moved" event.
Use-case: tabline plugins may cache tab labels, and need to know when to
invalidate their cache.
Solution:
Add a `TabMoved` event that triggers whenever tabs are reordered via `:tabmove`
or via mouse click-and-drag.
Problem:
After closing and reopening Neovim, ]' and [' fail with E92: Buffer 0
not found for marks restored from ShaDa. Direct jumps like 'a work
because mark_get_local() rewrites fnum before returning, but ]' uses
getnextmark() which does not, leaving fnum = 0.
Solution:
Set .fnum = buf->b_fnum when restoring local marks from ShaDa.
Problem: with a float focused and the target buf only shown in the
last non-float window, do_buffer_ext goes down the buf != curbuf
path. close_windows can't touch the last non-float, b_nwindows stays
> 0, close_buffer is skipped, returns OK silently.
Solution: if a non-float still holds buf after close_windows, jump
into it and recurse. Then buf == curbuf and the existing replacement
path takes over.
Problem:
`make_position_params`/`get_line_byte_from_position`/`make_line_range_params`
are private functions and their functionality can be replaced by `vim.pos` now.
Solution:
Remove them, use `vim.pos` instead.
Problem:
There is a lot of overlap between terminal and prompt buffer, but no
easy way to limit the number of lines kept above the prompt to prevent
performance and other issues. This is desirable for both example
use cases in current documentation, chat UI and repl/shell plugins.
Solution:
Use existing 'scrollback' option to limit prompt-buffer lines
as well.

Problem:
API clients cannot query the tab-local value of 'cmdheight'.
Solution:
Allow nvim_get_option_value() to accept { tab = <tab-ID> } for 'cmdheight'.
Problem: matchfuzzy() can crash on long multi-word patterns.
Solution: Clamp pat_chars to maxMatches and stop before calling
match_positions() when the buffer is full (glepnir).

Define `:packupdate` and `:packdel` as separate commands instead of a
unified `:pack {subcommand}` because the semantics between the two
commands vary differently enough that it doesn't make sense to combine
them. Additionally, `:pack! update/del` looks bad.
Problem: filetype: some Objective-C files are not recognized
Solution: Add g:filetype_mm override variable, improve the objective c

Problem:
Using the `DiffTool` plugin (e.g. through `nvim -d ...` or `:DiffTool
<file1> <file2>` fails if a space is in one of the paths. This occurs
because the `diff` wraps the paths with quotes (`'`) if space
characters are present, which the line diff regex fails to parse.
Solution:
Update regex to handle quoted paths by matching the string within the
quotes, if it exists.
Problem:
- Configuring the height of one of the message targets to 1 is
recognized as 100% of 'lines'.
- Cmdline is expanded for message exceeding 'cmdheight' even if the
configured height is smaller than or equal to 'cmdheight'.
Solution:
- Recognize a height of 1 as absolute; a decimal number smaller than 1
is taken as a fraction of 'lines' (replace 1 with 0.999 for the old
behavior).
- Don't expand the cmdline if the configured height doesn't allow it.
Problem:
On "arm clang unittest" CI job, `make unittest` sometimes fails with
lots of these messages:
FAILED test/unit/testutil.lua @ 773: ...
test/unit/testutil.lua:773:
test/unit/testutil.lua:297: declaration specifier expected near '_Static_assert' at line 429
exit code: 256
stack traceback:
test/unit/testutil.lua:773: in function 'itp_parent'
test/unit/testutil.lua:811: in function <test/unit/testutil.lua:801>
Solution:
Update filter_complex_blocks.
Problem:
61e99217e6 replaced usages of `vim.fn`. This duplicates non-trivial
logic and may have introduced bugs like 38e38d1b40.
Later on, b02eeb6a72 graduated `fnamemodify` to `fast`, so avoiding it
in `vim.fs` is no longer necessary.
Solution:
Use `vim.fn` to deduplicate `vim.fs.dirname()` and `vim.fs.basename()`.
Note: the "nvim -l" test-runner switch from the original PR (#30483) is
already done by 9432e6c1e2 (#39676).
Problem:
Many color schemes assume the Comment hl group is dim text and use it
for secondary text, decorations, or parts of UI. This is true for many
color schemes but not all.
Solution:
Introducing a new highlight group with a more specific meaning, similar
to Underlined or Ignore.
The new group links to Comment by default so the behavior is unchanged
for color schemes that don't define it.

Problem:
The Lua test harness still ran through standalone -ll mode, so tests
depended on the low-level Lua path instead of the regular Nvim Lua
environment. That also meant os.exit() coverage had to carry an ASAN
workaround because Lua's raw process exit skipped Nvim teardown and let
LeakSanitizer interfere with the observed exit code.
Solution:
Run the harness and related fixtures with nvim -l. Patch os.exit() in
the main Lua state to exit through getout(), so scripts observe normal
Nvim shutdown while standalone -ll remains available for generator-style
scripts. As a consequence, the startup test can assert os.exit() without
disabling leak detection.

Problem: Expected text for interactive marks is in a separate json file
from the tutor file. When the tutor file is updated, line numbers
(potentially many) have to be updated in the json file. This is a
burden for maintenance and automatic testing.
Solution: Put the expected text inline in the tutor file, marked
with `[[]]`. Parse and remove the comments before opening the tutor
file so extmarks can be applied.
