Problem:
Continue separators normalization, and try to keep it at the
nvim <-> external boundary, e.g., `fn.xxx`, `api.xxx`, `:xxx`
Solution:
some key changes
- normalize `$HOME-windows`
- normalize entry points of changing directory
- `nvim_set_current_dir()`, `chdir()`
- normalize the named pipe
- `--listen` arg, `--server` arg, `:restart`
- `serverstart()`, `sockconnect()`, `serverstop()`
- make `expand()` respect 'shellslash' again
- clean up `did_set_shellslash`
- replace `forward_slash` with `TO_SLASH`
- remove obsolete `TMP_PATHSEPSTR`
- remove `slash_adjust` in `do_autocmd_dirchanged`?
- make `fnamemodify()` always return `/` (except when substituting
separators via `:s`, `:gs` ?)
Note:
- these funcs still apply `slash_adjust` on return, as before:
`:pwd`, `chdir()`, `exepath()`, `getcwd()`
- these funcs alwarys return `/`, unlike before the normalization PRs
- `getcompletion()`, `finddir()`, `findfile()`
Also
- clean up code, comments, formatting and tests
- move `TO_SLASH` from `f_chdir` to `changedir_func`
- move `TO_SLASH` from `f_bufadd` to `buflist_new`

Problem: Some code for 'autocompletedelay' is no longer needed now that
'autocompletedelay' doesn't block redraw (after 9.2.0739).
Solution: Remove unnecessary code. Also remove a duplicate screendump
and an outdated comment in test (zeertzjq)

Problem: 'autocompletedelay' interferes with i_CTRL-K (after 9.2.0739).
Solution: Clear the pending autocompltion from the previous key when a
new key is typed.
closes: vim/vim#206660d292e2067
Problem: With a non-zero 'autocompletedelay', Insert-mode autocommands
(TextChangedI, TextChangedP, CursorMovedI) are delayed, and
while typing faster than the delay they are dropped entirely,
because the delay blocks the main loop.
Solution: Make 'autocompletedelay' non-blocking: instead of busy-waiting
before showing the popup menu, defer it with an input-wait
timeout (K_COMPLETE_DELAY) modeled on CursorHoldI, so typing
stays responsive and the Insert-mode autocommands fire normally.
The delay timer coexists with 'updatetime': the main loop waits for the
sooner of the two and triggers the event whose deadline was reached, so
'autocompletedelay' no longer shadows CursorHold timing. Changing the
completion leader, for example with Backspace, updates the visible popup
immediately like a zero delay; only the first popup is deferred.
Update the 'autocompletedelay' screendumps for the non-blocking display.
One test opened the menu with CTRL-N right after the delay expired and
could race with the deferred popup, so it now waits a little longer than
the delay before sending the key.

Problem:
After ctrl-f from the cmdline, the last 2 lines of cmdwin are redundant.
Solution:
In `open_cmdwin`, clear the live cmdline so that unwinding it (via
Ctrl_C) does not add it to history.
Problem:
cmdwin (the `:q` cmdline buffer) has various limitations which require
special-casing all over the codebase.
Besides complicating the code, it also breaks async plugins if they try
to create buffers/windows after some work is done, if the user happens
to open cmdwin at the wrong the moment:
Lua callback: …/guh.nvim/lua/guh/util.lua:531:
E11: Invalid in command-line window; <CR> executes, CTRL-C quits
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'nvim_buf_delete'
…/guh.nvim/lua/guh/util.lua:531: in function <…/guh.nvim/lua/guh/util.lua:526>
Solution:
Just say no to "inception". Reimplement cmdwin as a normal buffer+window.
All of the cmdwin contortions (in both core, and innocent plugins) exist
literally only to support "inception": recursive
cmdwin-in-cmdline-things, like `<c-r>=`, `/`, search-during-substitute,
`:input()`, etc. So we just won't support that (though I have
a potential plan for that later, which I call "modal parking lot").
The benefit is that plugins, and core, no longer have to care about
cmdwin.
BONUS:
- mouse-drag on vertical separators works (it only worked for
horizontal/statusline before)
- inccommand-in-cmdwin now works correctly, for free (thus don't need
#40077).
POTENTIAL FOLLOWUPS
- Drop `CHECK_CMDWIN` ("E11: Invalid in command-line window"), allow chaos.
- Unify `BUFLOCK_OK` / `LOCK_OK` ?
DESIGN:
- Eliminate lots of C globals, `EX_CMDWIN`, etc.
- `text_locked()` no longer reports true for cmdwin.
- cmdwin = a normal window with 'winfixbuf', 'bufhidden=wipe',
'buftype=nofile'. Invariants come from those options rather than
special cases throughout the codebase.
- `nv_record` for q:/q//q? calls Lua
`nlua_call_vimfn("vim._core.cmdwin", …)`. No `K_CMDWIN`
/ cmdline-reader detour.
- `cedit_key` (`c_CTRL-F`) schedules a deferred event that calls
`vim._core.cmdwin.open(type, content, pos)` and returns `Ctrl_C` so
the in-flight cmdline cancels. Reader state is not serialized; instead
the captured `(type, line, col)` is replayed via
`nvim_feedkeys(type..line.."<CR>", "nt", …)` after user confirms.
- On confirm/cancel: `<CR>` / `<C-C>` calls into Lua which closes the
window and re-feeds the cmdline.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- Expression-register cmdline (`<C-R>=` from insert-mode) no longer
supports cmdwin. Same applies to `input()` / `inputlist()` (already
covered by `text_locked`).
- Usage of cmdwin in macros/mappings will probably break (assuming they
ever worked).
Problem: compl_preselect_match is set even when completeopt doesn't
include preselect.
Solution: Check kOptCotFlagPreselect in ins_compl_add before setting
compl_preselect_match.
Problem:
On MSWIN, file completion (CTRL-X CTRL-F) only works for the current
drive (so not for actual absolute paths), since drive letters are never
included in the completion pattern.
e.g. when completing "F:\Hello" Nvim currently completes "\Hello"
which is relative to the current drive/volume.
vim solves this by adding ':' to the default 'isfname' value on mswin,
but that causes issues as ':' is not a valid windows path char anywhere
_except_ after the drive letter.
Solution:
detect drive letters in front of the path when creating the completion
pattern.
Problem: completion: some issues with 'acl' when "preinsert" and
"longest" is in 'completeopt' (musonius, after v9.1.1638)
Solution: Fix various issues (see details below) (Girish Palya)
This commit addresses multiple issues in the 'autocompletedelay' behavior with
"preinsert" and "longest":
- Prevents spurious characters from being inserted.
- Ensures the completion menu is not shown until `autocompletedelay` has
expired.
- Shows the "preinsert" effect immediately.
- Keeps the "preinsert" effect visible even when a character is deleted.

Problem: completion: autocompletion can be improved
Solution: Add support for "longest" and "preinsert" in 'autocomplete';
add preinserted() (Girish Palya)
* Add support for "longest" in 'completeopt' when 'autocomplete'
is enabled. (Note: the cursor position does not change automatically
when 'autocomplete' is enabled.)
* Add support for "preinsert" when 'autocomplete' is enabled. Ensure
"preinsert" works the same with and without 'autocomplete'
* introduce the preinserted() Vim script function, useful for defining
custom key mappings.

Problem: completion: preinserted text highlighed using ComplMatchIns
Solution: Use highlighting group PreInsert and update the documentation
(Girish Palya).
When "preinsert" is included in 'completeopt', only the PreInsert
highlight group should be applied, whether autocompletion is active or not.
Previously, ComplMatchIns was used when autocompletion was not enabled.

Problem: tests: no test for actually moving cursor when menu is not
open with 'autocompletedelay'.

Problem: completion: not possible to delay the autcompletion
Solution: add the 'autocompletedelay' option value (Girish Palya).
This patch introduces a new global option 'autocompletedelay'/'acl' that
specifies the delay, in milliseconds, before the autocomplete menu
appears after typing.
When set to a non-zero value, Vim waits for the specified time before
showing the completion popup, allowing users to reduce distraction from
rapid suggestion pop-ups or to fine-tune the responsiveness of
completion.
The default value is 0, which preserves the current immediate-popup
behavior.

Problem: The ruler disappears after typing the second character during
insert mode completion, even when completion messages are
suppressed ('shortmess' includes "c"). This makes the UI
appear inconsistent.
Solution: Ensure the ruler is restored during screen redraw when popup
completion is active (Girish Palya).
Notes:
No new tests were added, as existing screen dump tests were updated to
reflect the corrected behavior.

Problem: completion: messages don't respect 'shm' setting
Solution: Turn off completion messages when 'shortmess' includes "c"
(Girish Palya).
`:set shortmess+=c` is intended to reduce noise during completion by
suppressing messages.
Previously, some completion messages still appeared regardless of this setting.
This change ensures that **all** completion-related messages are suppressed
when `'c'` is present in `'shortmess'`.
Not entirely sure if the original behavior was intentional. If there's a
reason certain messages were always shown, feel free to close this without
merging.

Problem: As in f85bc41, assume unfocusable windows to be UI windows
whose buffer content is unexpectedly included in 'complete'
"w" completion.
Solution: Exclude unfocusable windows when looping over windows.
Problem:
`:lua vim.lsp.c<tab>` does not list vim.lsp.completion in the completion
list after 24cea4c7f7.
Solution:
- Always include `vim.lsp._submodule` keys in candidates.
- Fixes `vim.lsp.c<tab>` -> `vim.lsp.completion`.
- Eager-load `vim.lsp.completion` to get its completion.
- Fixes `vim.lsp.completion.g<tab>` -> `vim.lsp.completion.get`.
Problem:
`feed_command()` was added as a "bridge" for old test code. 99% of those
cases should be using `n.command()`, which raises errors instead of
silently continuing the test.
Solution:
Deprecate `feed_command()`. It should not be used in new tests.
All usages of `feed_command()` should be converted to `command()` or
`feed()`.
Problem: Enter does not insert newline with "noselect" when the pum is
visible (lifepillar)
Solution: When Enter is pressed and no complete-item is selected,
ins_compl_prep returns false, and the edit function continues
processing Enter to insert a new line. (glepnir)

Problem:
If completeopt does not include "popup" flag, nvim__complete_set still
auto-creates a floating preview window.
Solution:
Fail if completeopt does not include the "popup" flag.
Problem: When completion leader changes, text that might be reinserted
immediately after is deleted. This unnecessarily affects
extmarks. #31387 restored the original extmarks but that
prevents end_right_gravity marks from growing.
Solution: Avoid deleting leader text that will be reinserted.
Before calling "attach" a screen object is just a dummy container for
(row, col) values whose purpose is to be sent as part of the "attach"
function call anyway.
Just create the screen in an attached state directly. Keep the complete
(row, col, options) config together. It is still completely valid to
later detach and re-attach as needed, including to another session.
Problem: Behavior of Enter in completion depends on typing speed.
Solution: Don't make whether Enter selects original text depend on
whether completion has been interrupted, which can happen
interactively with a slow completion function.
Do the expansion right after setting the expand context, so that the
length of the completion prefix can be set, but don't do that directly
in set_one_cmd_context(), as that's also called by getcmdcompltype().
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`.
