Also adds one exception to linter rules:
typedef struct {
kvec_t(Object) stack;
} EncodedData;
is completely valid (from the style guide point of view) code.
This removes some stack overflows in new test regarding deeply nested variables.
Now in place of crashing vim_to_object/msgpack_rpc_from_object/etc it crashes
clear_tv with stack overflow.
When converting a msgpack object to a String object, strings (and byte
arrays) with length 0 are handled as errors. This is fixed by
always using the msgpack data pointer as a valid pointer. For a NULL
pointer there is nothing to copy.
Test by @snoe
Fixes#3844
Arguments passed to xmemdupz() are sometimes NULL, but xmemdupz() has
FUNC_ATTR_NONNULL_ALL. Check pointers for NULL before calling
xmemdupz().
Resolves#2533.
Consider: `let vim = rpcstart('nvim', ['--embed'])`
Allows `rpcnotify(vim, ...)` to work like an asynchronous
`rpcrequest(nvim, ...)`.

- Remove abstract_ui global, now it is always active
- Remove some terminal handling code
- Remove unused functions
- Remove HAVE_TGETENT/TERMINFO/TERMIOS/IOCTL #ifdefs
- Remove tgetent/terminfo from version.c
- Remove curses/terminfo dependencies
- Only start/stop termcap when starting/exiting the program
- msg_use_printf will return true if there are no attached UIs(
messages will be written to stdout)
- Remove `ex_winpos`(implement `:winpos` with `ex_ni`)
- Expose more logging control from the log.c module(get log stream and omit
newlines)
- Remove logging from the generated functions in msgpack-gen.lua
- Refactor channel.c/helpers.c to log every msgpack-rpc payload using
msgpack_object_print(a helper function from msgpack.h)
- Remove the api_stringify function, it was only useful for logging msgpack-rpc
which is now handled by msgpack_object_print.
Since all API functions now run immediately after a msgpack-rpc request is
parsed by libuv callbacks, a mechanism was added to override this behavior and
allow certain functions to run in Nvim main loop.
The mechanism is simple: Any API function tagged with the FUNC_ATTR_DEFERRED (a
"dummy" attribute only used by msgpack-gen.lua) will be called when Nvim main
loop receives a K_EVENT key.
To implement this mechanism it was necessary some restructuration on the
msgpack-rpc modules, especially in the msgpack-gen.lua script.
