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: filetype: .git-blame-ignore-revs file is not recognized
Solution: Detect .git-blame-ignore-revs file as gitrevlist filetype,
include syntax and filetype plugins (Fionn Fitzmaurice)
A Git revision list is
> a list of object names (i.e. one unabbreviated SHA-1 per line)...,
> comments (#), empty lines, and any leading and trailing whitespace are
> ignored.
(from Git's fsck.skipList documentation).
The default output of git rev-list will match this. It is also suitable
as input to git blame --ignore-revs-file.
This adds filetype detection matching .git-blame-ignore-revs files,
syntax highlighting and basic filetype settings.

Problem:
The core behaviors of `nvim.dir` cannot be reused by consumers
such as the archive plugin, ssh browser, etc.
Solution:
- Define a basic "provider" shape.
- Extract the filesystem provider.
Problem:
When buffer is open in multiple windows and its line count changes, any
'statusline' or 'rulerformat' items depending on it (e.g. %P) will
become invalid in non-current windows because w_redr_status is only set
on first change.
Solution:
Set w_redr_status on all windows with the buffer when the line count
changes.

Problem:
Redundant code.
Solution:
Combine path_has_wildcard() and path_has_exp_wildcard(). They have similar logic.
Also, the latter operates on whatever wildcards remain after shell/env/backtick
expansion, so the two felt somewhat related.
Also drop some unnecessary MB_PTR_ADV calls.
Problem: ":startinsert" enters Insert mode in a buffer where
'modifiable' is off, the error only appears when a character
is typed. Typing "i" gives the error right away (Barrett Ruth)
Solution: Give the error when the buffer is not modifiable, like "i"
does. Keep ignoring the command in a terminal window, where
":startinsert" is documented to be ineffective, and keep
accepting it when 'insertmode' is set, like "i" does
(Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: do_sub() only checks the timeout limit after finishing a line.
A pathological regex will run on a single line input unbounded
until the compute is completed.
Solution: Pass the timeout limit to `vim_regexec_multi()` so the
computation on the regex engine is bounded per-line.

* fix(help): preserve multi-letter CTRL modifiers in :help subject
Problem: After PR 39537 normalized `CTRL-U-default` by excluding
`-` from the trigger char class, the regex `(CTRL%-[^{])([^-_\\])`
also fires between `CTRL-S` and the `H` of the `SHIFT` modifier
in tags like `c_CTRL-SHIFT-V`, splitting it into the non-existent
`c_CTRL-S_HIFT-V`.
Solution: Exclude uppercase letters from the char class so a
multi-letter modifier following `CTRL-X` (e.g. `SHIFT`, `ALT`) is
no longer split. The `-` exclusion from 39537 is preserved so
`i_CTRL-U-default` still works.
* fix(help): escape ~ in expr-=~? exception to keep regex valid
Problem: The `expr-=~?` exception in the tag alias table maps to
`=~?`, but in Vim's regex engine `~` refers to the previous
substitute pattern. With no prior substitute the pattern fails to
compile, so `:help expr-=~?` returns E149 even though the tag exists.
Solution: Escape `~` as \\\~` so the alias expands to a valid
regex (`=\\\~?`) that substring-matches the `expr-=~?` tag. Other
`expr-X?` entries are unaffected since they don't contain `~`.
* fix(help): don't insert _ before CTRL- when preceded by -
Problem: The rule `([^_])CTRL%- -> %1_CTRL-` inserts an underscore
between any non-underscore char and `CTRL-`, which wrongly rewrites
tags like `map-CTRL-C` and `telnet-CTRL-]` (where `CTRL-` is
literal text in the tag, not a key chord).
Solution: Exclude `-` from the trigger char class so a hyphen
immediately before `CTRL-` is preserved. The existing behavior for
`iCTRL-GCTRL-J` -> `i_CTRL-G_CTRL-J` is unaffected because the
`G` before `CTRL-J` is not `-`.
* fix(help): only treat ^X as caret notation for valid control chars
Problem: The regex `%^([^_])` converts any `^X` to `CTRL-X`,
including `:set^=` where `^=` is literal text in the tag, not a
caret-notation control character.
Solution: Restrict the transformation to caret-notation chars
(`%a` or one of `?@[\\]^{}`). This matches the C reference
behavior where `^X` is only converted when X is alphanumeric or one
of the control-notation punctuation chars. `{` is retained so
`^{char}` still maps to the `CTRL-{char}` placeholder tag.
Problem: With the NFA engine a sub-expression inside a variable width
look-behind, e.g. "\v(.)@<=", is empty for the first match on
every line except the first one. The old engine is correct
(Mukundan)
Solution: The look-behind is retried from the previous line, because the
width of "." is over-estimated. While scanning that line the
start state is added at the end of the line, where it gets the
position of the line break as its start position, even though
the match actually starts on the next line. Use the position
of the start of the next line in that case (Hirohito Higashi).

Problem:
emmylua reports `unresolved-require` for `require('test.testutil')` and
friends, and a file under `test/` cannot even resolve its own siblings.
This happens because `test/.emmyrc.json` and `test/.luarc.json`, cause
vim.lsp to root the workspace at `test/` instead of the repo top-level.
Solution:
Drop the nested configs:
src/.luarc.json
test/.luarc.json
test/.emmyrc.json
Outcomes:
- No "libraries" needed: luv types come from `runtime/lua/uv/_meta.lua`,
not `${3rd}/luv` (which would only duplicate them).
- Drop `test/` from the root `.luarc.json` `ignoreDir` so its modules are
resolvable by LuaLS/Emmylua.
- Note: this means that LuaLS diagnostics will now be reported for
`test/`, but that is not a bad thing...
Problem:
When 'shellslash' is set, exepath() returns forward-slashed paths.
Passing that path to vim.system() can prevent cmd.exe from launching.
Solution:
Convert the resolved executable path to native separators before spawning.
Add a Windows regression test for cmd.exe with 'shellslash' enabled.
Problem:
The magic globals `it`, `describe`, etc., are more trouble than they are
worth.
- Hooking into `after_each` requires `getfenv()` hacks.
- They confuse luals/emmylua, because the top-level `.luarc.json` isn't
merged with `test/.luarc.json` (apparently a luals limitation?)
- They totally defeat discoverability because the user just has to
"know" about the various magic symbols.
So they harm DX, which means they serve no purpose at all.
Solution:
- Expose the test API from `testutil`, so tests can call `t.it()`,
`t.describe()`, etc., in the conventional way.
- Drop `getfenv()` hacks.
- Drop the `setfenv()` injection in `load_chunk`.
- Drop `test/_meta.lua`.
Problem: Deeply nested regexp groups can cause uncontrolled recursion
in the regexp compiler and exhaust the C stack.

Problem:
The title is combined with window's attributes only if the title is a

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.

Problems:
On Windows, `:w somedir` (where somedir is an existing directory
in pwd) shows the misleading `E13: File exists (add ! to override)`
instead of `E17: "somedir" is a directory`.
Solution:
drop unnecessary `#ifdef` guard.
Problem: when PR #40621 removed a 50 cell restriction to item group
minwid, a possible integer overflow was introduced when the added
padding is multiplied with the number of fillchar bytes.
Solution: when there is not enough buffer capacity left, reduce the
number of added fillchars before calculating the number of added bytes.

Solution:
Append the child exit-code and signal to the "EOF … crashed" message.
Example:
Nvim EOF (crash?) exit code: 42 (0x0000002A)
On the next failing Windows run, the first crash line will classify the failure:
- 0xC0000005 → access violation (nvim bug)
- 0xC0000374 → heap corruption (nvim bug)
- spawn/resource error or "clean" exit-code → system resource exhaustion
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.

Fix#38330
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: Visual block reselection wrong with 'virtualedit' when line
lengths are different (Alex Yang, after 8.2.3494).

may change cursor column as well (zeertzjq).

Problem: filetype: hip files are not recognized
Solution: Detect *.hip files as hip filetype, include filetype, syntax
and indent plugins, update makemenu.vim and synmenu.vim (Young)
Round out HIP (Heterogeneous-compute Interface for Portability) support
to mirror the existing CUDA files:
- autoload/dist/ft.vim: detect the ".hip" extension as filetype "hip"
- ftplugin/hip.vim: behave like C++ by sourcing ftplugin/cpp.vim
- indent/hip.vim: use cindent, like indent/cuda.vim
- makemenu.vim / synmenu.vim: add a Syntax menu entry
The syntax/hip.vim file already sources syntax/cpp.vim and adds the
HIP-specific keywords, matching syntax/cuda.vim.

Analysis:
The bell was asserted via the UI 'bell' event (screen.bell), but
vim_beep() rate-limits that to 3 per 500ms. These tests share one

Solution:
Use assert_beeps()/assert_nobeep(), which check called_vim_beep (set
before the rate-limit gate).

Set a long debounce, assert the stable state, then use a short debounce
