Problem: When the terminal reports no colors ("t_Co" is 0 or 1) the
insert mode completion popup menu is not shown at all, while
the command line completion popup menu ('wildoptions' contains
"pum") is shown. In 'wildmenu' completion the current match
cannot be told apart from the other matches (Maxim Kim)
Solution: Show the insert mode completion popup menu regardless of the
number of colors and add "term" attributes to the default
highlighting of Pmenu, PmenuSel and PmenuThumb. The wildmenu
is drawn with the attributes of the status line, which is
reversed, and on most terminals the standout mode is the same
as the reverse mode, thus use the underline mode for the
default highlighting of WildMenu (Hirohito Higashi).

Problem:
A floating preview window (hover, signature help) converted to a normal
window (e.g. with CTRL-W_H or nvim_win_set_config()) is still closed by
the open_floating_preview() autocommands, and a later preview may focus
or close it as if it were still a float.
Solution:
When the preview window is no longer floating, remove its auto-close
autocommands and stop tracking it as the buffer's floating preview.
Closes#36659
Problem:
nvim_create_autocmd() isn't |api-fast|, so modules that create autocmds
(e.g. vim.treesitter.query) can't be require()d in a fast event context.
Solution:
Mark it |api-fast|. Compile autocmd patterns with RE_NOBREAK so
aucmd_next() won't os_breakcheck() mid-iteration, where a fast
nvim_create_autocmd() could realloc the autocmds vector and dangle the
caller's AutoPat/AutoCmd.
RE_NOBREAK is low-risk because:
- aucmd_next()'s loop checks CTRL-C: `(for (… i < apc->ausize && !got_int; …)`.
- `line_breakcheck()` (`autocmd.c:1912`) runs once per matched autocmd.
- Each autocmd _execution_ runs through `do_cmdline`, which has its own
breakchecks.
However this does admit risk of a pathological case:
a catastrophic-backtracking glob matched against a very long `User`
event-pattern.

Problems:
1. Can't get individual parts of a key-chord separately: modifiers, key.
2. Can't separate a key-combo into individual key-chords.
Solution:
Enhance `vim.keycode()` to optionally return a structured parse result
as a list of key-chords:
- `key_raw` the key-chord (problem 2)
- `mod` the modifiers of `key_raw` (problem 1)
- `key_orig` the key part of the key-chord, only here if differing from `key`
(this doesn't solve any of the above mentioned problems, but it may provide
useful and it's (in terms of code) free)
- `key` a normalized version of `key_orig` (solving problem 1), example(the
first is `key_orig` and second is `key`): `lt` and `<`, `Bar` and `|` (in
`<C-Bar>`)
Problem: values from completionList.itemDefaults always replace the
item's own commitCharacters and data. Since 3.18 a server can ask for
them to be merged instead.
Solution: Handle CompletionList.applyKind and advertise applyKindSupport.
Drop itemDefaults once folded into the items: get_items() runs twice on
the same result and a Merge isn't idempotent.

Problem:
`nvim__ui_detach` was added in 85e0559d46 in order to implement
`detach_others` from Lua. Using Lua in this case is doing more harm than
good.
Solution:
Extract `ui_detach_channel`, which also allows it to be used for the
"self detach" path from `ex_detach`.
Bonus: the old MSWIN path always called `os_swap_to_hidden_console()`;
now `ui_detach_channel` only does so for a stdio channel. For the common
stdio TUI this is identical; for a socket UI it's more correct (no
parent console to swap).
Problem:
Third-party directory browsers do not have a documented way to take over local
directory buffers from nvim.dir.
Solution:
Document deleting the nvim.dir augroup and handling FileType directory as the
after-startup handoff, and avoid installing the built-in buffer-local "-" mapping
when "-" is already mapped.
Problem: LSP completion commitCharacters are not handled. Typing a
commit character (e.g. `.`, `(`, `;`) while a completion item is
selected does not accept the item first.
Solution: Store commit characters as a flat string in complete-items.
Check it before completion stops, accept the match and let
the character be inserted normally.
Problem:
- No UI for listing extmarks.
- `:marks` doesn't support cmdline-completion.
Solution:
- Add completion and extmarks support to `:marks`.
- Update `get_buf_local_marks` to include the ":" (prompt-buffer) mark.
Problem:
This functions are most likely never used in the wild.
- They are redundant with `nvim_get_context` + `nvim_load_context`.
- The "context" concept was never fully developed and hasn't gained
traction.
Solution:
Drop these vimscript aliases, they are just extra cruft.
Problem:
After 25439dad7e, `opts` is optional, but not params that follow it.
Solution:
- Update `gen_api_dispatch.lua`, docs, tests.
- Enhance the `nvim_get_api_info()` api-metadata to include a boolean
flag indicating whether a parameter is optional:
```
[type, name, optional]
```
Note: Currently, optional params are assumed to be Dict/Array. Since we
don't yet have any use-cases of optional params following `opts`, the
build just checks this assumption and we can deal with it later if we
ever care to:
nvim_get_hl: optional param "foo" has type "Integer" but (currently)
we assume Dict/Array
Problem:
|api-contract| allows adding an optional trailing `opts` parameter, but
the dispatch generator still requires every parameter, so `opts` cannot
be omitted.
Solution:
Treat a trailing `Dict(...) *opts` parameter as optional in the generated
RPC and Lua dispatch wrappers.

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:
- `edit.c` is an unnecessarily misleading and less-discoverable name
than `insert.c`.
- Numerous insert-mode related things are named with a `ins_` prefix.
- There is already a `insexpand.c` module...
Solution:
Rename `edit.c` => `insert.c`.
The purpose of `v:echospace` was to avoid disruptive "Press ENTER"
prompts. Since those are no longer a problem with ui2, the complexity
of maintaining it up-to-date is no longer justified.
Problem: ui2's ruler is no longer of fixed width, and the internal width
variable `ru_wid` now acts as an arbitrary maximum, which is unnecessary
because the same can now be achieved transparently with an item group.
Furthermore, the old way of setting `ru_wid` with an overloaded subset
of the item group syntax leads to a number of inconsistencies. In
particular, when the configured ruler expression is reused for including
the ruler into the statusline, where the item group syntax is
interpreted in the usual way. The fact that this width is set in the
`minwid` position is more confusing now that it is a de-facto maximum.
Solution: for ui2, constrain the ruler only by half the screen width,
which previously was an additional limit relevant on small screens.
Skip the special-case treatment of the ruler's leading item group spec,
process it like a normal item group.
Example: the current fallback ruler expression in the default statusline
now actually works for `rulerformat` itself:
set rulerformat=%-14.(%l,%c%V%)\ %P
because the result can naturally expand to 18 cells instead of being
truncated to the default 17 cells, and removing the period after
`minwid` doesn't change the result, whereas before, it would unhelpfully
lead to setting the fixed ruler width to 14 cells.
BREAKING CHANGE: if the user used to set the ruler's fixed width, it
will now be treated as minimum instead of a maximum width, which in
practice increases backwards-compatibility with ui1 and vim. The main
remaining difference is that item groups are right-aligned by default,
but backwards-compatibility can be achieved by setting a negative
`minwid`, which ui1 and vim ignore. To restore the previous fixed width,
specify `maxwid` as well, but this does not work in ui1 and vim.
If `rulerformat` contains a `%=` without enclosing item group, it will
now expand to fill half the screen width. But in that case, it will
already spread out similarly in the new expression-based statusline, so
consistency of the ruler in both positions is increased.
To simulate the previous default behaviour, wrap it in `%-17.17(...%)`.
For best compatibility and reuse with vim, leave out `maxwid` and make
`minwid` negative, e.g. `%-20(...%)`.

Problem:
`vim.filetype.match()` needs a cheap way to recognize directory buffers
without doing filesystem stat work.
Solution:
Ensure full buffer names for directories end in a trailing slash. Now
directory buffers can proceed through the normal 'filetype' path.
Note side-effects: session and ShaDa buffer-list restore behavior must
be compatible, so those + corresponding tests must be updated.
Problem:
`vim.fs` does not provide a directory creation helper matching its
filesystem API shape.
Solution:
Add `vim.fs.mkdir()` as a thin wrapper around `vim.fn.mkdir()`, with
`parents` and `mode` options.
Problem:
Session files specified at startup `-S [file]`, logically conflict
with `:restart`.
Solution:
Remove `-S [file]` from `v:argv` when doing :restart.
Also for the "bang" variant `:restart!`, just because it's
simpler (if anyone reports a use-case later, we can revisit).
Problem:
Inlay hints used separate global and per-buffer bufstates tables and
bespoke global autocmds for managing the inlay hint state across buffers
and clients, duplicating the lifecycle logic already provided by the
Capability framework. This caused inconsistencies in how client state
was handled and inlay hint state lifecycle was managed compared to other
LSP features.
Solution:
Replace the ad-hoc bufstate tracking and global autocmds in
vim.lsp.inlay_hint with a proper InlayHint subclass of Capability.
This also refactors the way inlay hint state is managed and fixes bugs I
found while doing this:
1. For each line with inlay hints, the list of the hints along with
whether they have been applied is stored in a current result on the
client state. This allows the on_win decorator to clear all inlay
hints for an old document version once, and then re-add the new
version's hints line-by-line as they are drawn to the screen,
modeling the semantic tokens module.
2. It fixes problems with mixing results from multiple clients attached
to the buffer by fully moving each client's state to its own table.
Previously, only the most recent document version used to populate a
line's inlay hints was stored, but there was no distinction for which
client the hints may have come from. (Fixes#36318)
3. It fixes the workspace/inlayHint/refresh server->client notification
behavior. Previously it would only re-request inlay hints for buffers
currently displayed in a window but would not invalidate them in
non-displayed buffers (or provide any mechanism for those buffers to
re-request at a later time). Model semantic token module here again
by invalidating all buffers, and adding a BufWinEnter autocmd to
refresh hints.
4. Add a mechanism to cancel in-flight requests if a new request for a
newer document version is made before the last one returned
5. Handle stale results by simply dropping them.
Ref #6645
Problem:
When a window is resized it takes space from the window right/below first,
and only falls back to the window left/above when there is no more room.
Sometimes a user wants the space to come from a specific direction.
Solution:
Add nvim_win_resize(win, width, height, {anchor}) which resizes a window
with a choosable anchor edge, letting a window grow leftwards or upwards
by taking space from the window to the left or above first. The default
anchor reproduces nvim_win_set_width()/nvim_win_set_height().
Problem:
`vim.lsp.buf.format()` accepts ranges using nvim indexing, where an
end column of -1 means end of line. LSP ranges cannot use that,
which is confusing for things like range formatting.
Solution:
Resolve -1 end columns to the line length before converting the range to
LSP positions.
Problem:
Plugins using RPC sockets cannot detect when the peer closes a
`sockconnect()` channel, so reconnect logic has no reliable trigger.
Solution:
Add a `ChanClose` event with channel info before the channel is removed,
matching the existing `ChanOpen`/`ChanInfo` event model.
Problem:
`request()` and `notify()` are methods of the object returned by
`vim.lsp.rpc.start()`/`connect()`, but were rendered with module-level
helptags (`vim.lsp.rpc.request()`, `vim.lsp.rpc.notify()`) (erroneously
implying module functions that do not exist).
Solution:
Mark the wrappers `@private` and describe them on `vim.lsp.rpc.Client` instead.
Problem:
The dir.lua "-" mapping cannot be easily overridden (because of autocmd
ordering).
Solution:
- Move it to defaults.lua.
- Also to be extra polite: fall back to builtin `-` motion if the user
disabled the `dir.lua` plugin.
Problem: the pos argument in ListOps for lsp is an optional parameter,
but the lua_ls typing system doesn't reflect that
Solution: let pos be optional
