Problem: Although patch 9.1.0990 fixed a real problem/inconsistency,
it also introduced new behavior that may break BWC and/or be
unexpected. Before 9.1.0990, window commands could make the
topframe smaller (without changing 'cmdheight'; quirk that is
now fixed), but did not allow extending the topframe beyond
the 'cmdheight' set by the user. After 9.1.0990, the user can
reduce the 'cmdheight' below the value they set explicitly,
through window commands, which may lead to confusion.
(aftere v9.1.0990)
Solution: Store the value explicitly set by the user and clamp the
'cmdheight' when resizing the topframe. This also applies to
dragging laststatus, which in contrast to window commands
_did_ allow reducing the 'cmdheight' to values below the one
set by the user. So with this patch there is still new
behavior, but I think in a way that is less surprising.
While at it, also fix a Coverity warning, introduced in
v9.1.0990 (Luuk van Baal)

Problem: Inconsistent behavior when changing cmdheight by resizing the
topframe through wincmds and dragging laststatus. Changing
cmdheight by resizing the topframe does not trigger OptionSet.
Solution: Consolidate logic for changing the cmdheight, set the option
value to handle side-effects (Luuk van Baal)

Problem: GUI tests sometimes fail when setting 'scroll' options
Solution: decrease the 'scroll' and 'scrolljump' option value from 20 to

the gui tests sometimes fail with:

Problem: filetype: APKBUILD files not correctly detected
Solution: detect 'APKBUILD' files as apkbuild filetype,
include a apkbuild syntax script (which basically
just sources the sh.vim syntax file)
(Hugo Osvaldo Barrera)
Vim plugins (e.g.: ALE, nvim-lspconfig, etc) rely on filetype to
determine which integrations/helpers are applicable. They expect
filetype=apkbuild for APKBUILD files.
On the other hand, plugins also enable bash-specific linters and
functionality when filetype=bash, but APKBUILD files are POSIX sh, not
bash, so these often provide bogus results.
Change the filetype for APKBUILD to a 'apkbuild', so that tools and
ftplugin can properly target these files. This filetype will use the
existing `sh` syntax rules, since these are applicable for them.

Problem:
`termopen` has long been a superficial wrapper around `jobstart`, and
has no real purpose. Also, `vim.system` and `nvim_open_term` presumably
will replace all features of `jobstart` and `termopen`, so centralizing
the logic will help with that.
Solution:
- Introduce `eval/deprecated.c`, where all deprecated eval funcs will live.
- Introduce "term" flag of `jobstart`.
- Deprecate `termopen`.

Problem:
- API functions using `try_start` directly instead of `TRY_WRAP`, do not
surface the underlying error message, and instead show generic things
like "Failed to set buffer".
- Error handling code is duplicated in the API impl, instead of
delegating to the vim buffer/window handling logic.
Solution:
- Use `TRY_WRAP`.

Problem: [security]: prevent overflow in indenting
Solution: use long long and remove cast to (int)
The shiftwidth option values are defined as being long. However, when
calculating the actual amount of indent, we cast down to (int), which
may cause the shiftwidth value to become negative and later it may even
cause Vim to try to allocate a huge amount of memory.
We already use long and long long variable types to calculate the indent
(and detect possible overflows), so the cast to (int) seems superfluous
and can be safely removed. So let's just remove the (int) cast and
calculate the indent using longs.
Additionally, the 'shiftwidth' option value is also used when determining
the actual 'cino' options. There it can again cause another overflow, so
make sure it is safe in parse_cino() as well.

Problem: [security]: overflow in shift_line
Solution: allow a max indent of INT_MAX
[security]: overflow in shift_line
When shifting lines in operator pending mode and using a very large
value, we may overflow the size of integer. Fix this by using a long
variable, testing if the result would be larger than INT_MAX and if so,
indent by INT_MAX value.
Special case: We cannot use long here, since on 32bit architectures (or
on Windows?), it typically cannot take larger values than a plain int,
so we have to use long long count, decide whether the resulting
multiplication of the shiftwidth value * amount is larger than INT_MAX
and if so, we will store INT_MAX as possible larges value in the long
long count variable.
Then we can safely cast it back to int when calling the functions to set
the indent (set_indent() or change_indent()). So this should be safe.
Add a test that when using a huge value in operator pending mode for
shifting, we will shift by INT_MAX
