Problem:
On exit, rpc_free() is called when processing main_loop.events after
libuv calls close callbacks of the channel's stream. However, when there
are no child processes, these libuv callbacks are called in loop_close()
instead of proc_teardown(), and main_loop.events isn't processed after
loop_close(). As a result, calling remote_ui_disconnect() in rpc_free()
causes UILeave to depend on the presence of child processes.
Solution:
Always call remote_ui_disconnect() in rpc_close_event(), and remove the
call in rpc_free().

Problem:
On Windows, writing to a pipe doesn't work if the pipe isn't connected
yet. This causes an RPC request to a session newly created by connect()
to hang, as it's waiting for a response to a request that never reaches
the server.
Solution:
Wait for uv.pipe_connect() callback to be called when using connect().
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.
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`.

Problem:
Validation messages are not consistently formatted.
- Parameter names sometimes are NOT quoted.
- Descriptive names (non-parameters) sometimes ARE quoted.
Solution:
Always quote the `name` value passed to a VALIDATE macro _unless_ the
value has whitespace.
Before this, --embed UIs (without --headless) would not trigger UIEnter.
For TUI, maybe UIEnter isn't useful, but:
- It is less "surprising"/special.
- Makes documentation simpler.
- When TUI becomes a coprocess, it will happen anyway.
