Problem:
Whether an option is allowed to be empty isn't well defined and
isn't properly checked.
Solution:
- For non-list string options, explicitly check the option value
if it is empty.
- Annotate non-list string options that can accept an empty value.
- Adjust command completion to ignore the empty value.
- Render values in Lua meta files
Problem: GUI tests sometimes fail when setting 'scroll' options
Solution: decrease the 'scroll' and 'scrolljump' option value from 20 to
15, in case the Gui window is not large enough to handle 20.
tests: decrease the scroll and scrolljump values
the gui tests sometimes fail with:
```
From test_options_all.vim:
Found errors in Test_opt_set_scroll():
Caught exception in Test_opt_set_scroll(): Vim(set):E49: Invalid scroll size: scroll=20 @ command line..script /home/runner/work/vim/vim/src/testdir/runtest.vim[617]..function RunTheTest[57]..Test_opt_set_scroll, line 7
Found errors in Test_opt_set_scrolljump():
Caught exception in Test_opt_set_scrolljump(): Vim(set):E49: Invalid scroll size: scrolljump=20 @ command line..script /home/runner/work/vim/vim/src/testdir/runtest.vim[617]..function RunTheTest[57]..Test_opt_set_scrolljump, line 9

Problem: no error check for neg values for 'messagesopt'
(after v9.1.0908)
Solution: add additional error checks and tests (h-east)

Nvim's getdigits() checks for overflow, so the code change isn't needed.

Problem:
There are three different ways of marking an option as hidden, `enable_if
= false`, `hidden = true` and `immutable = true`. These also have different
behaviors. Options hidden with `enable_if = false` can't have their value
fetched using Vim script or the API, but options hidden with `hidden = true` or
`immutable = true` can. On the other hand, options with `hidden = true` do not
error when trying to set their value, but options with `immutable = true` do.
Solution:
Remove `enable_if = false`, remove the `hidden` property for options, and use
`immutable = true` to mark an option as hidden instead. Also make hidden option
variable pointers always point to the default value, which allows fetching the
value of every hidden option using Vim script and the API. This does also mean
that trying to set a hidden option will now give an error instead of just being
ignored.
