Problem:
Parent commit regressed some behavior of the old C helptags-gen impl:
- helpfiles in sub-directories are named by basename, so :help fails
- "help-tags" always names "tags", never "tags-nl"
- E150 E151 E152 E153 are never reported
- existing tags file is not overwritten if no tags were found
- a duplicate tag aborts the run, skipping the remaining directories
- `*.TXT` and `*.FRX` (uppercase) are not recognized as helpfiles
- tree-sitter-vimdoc accepts tags that the C parser rejected: `*a|b*`
(breaks |links|) and unterminated `*tag`
- PUC Lua "<" compares with (localized) `strcoll()`, so the tags file is
not sorted by byte value (E432)
- requiring `vim.treesitter` at load time breaks :help itself, not just
:helptags, where the module is unavailable
- `vim.pack` runs :helptags for plugins that have no "doc/" directory,
so every install/update emits E150
Solution:
- Fail the build if generating helptags reports any `v:errmsg`.
- Restore old behavior: tags generated for runtime/doc are now identical
to those from the C implementation. Errors are non-fatal messages
instead of exceptions, so all directories are still processed.
- Load treesitter lazily, report a plain error if parser is missing.
Problem:
In order for ui2 to graduate to the main "messages ui" its configuration
needs to graduate into actual options.
Solution:
Migrate some of its config to 'messagesopt':
- "maxheight" (note: currently this is an integer treated as
a "percentage"; if we want to support a row count we could allow
values with units, like `"42%"`)
- "pager"
- "timeout"
Also improves error messages:
messagesopt=hit-enter,history:500,bogus E474: Unknown item 'bogus'
messagesopt=hit-enter,history:500,progress:x E474: 'progress' must be one of: , c
messagesopt=hit-enter,history:abc E474: 'history' requires a number
Problem: complete_info() omits "abbr_hlgroup" and "kind_hlgroup".
Solution: Keep the highlight group ID with the match instead of the
resolved attribute and add both entries to the returned items
(glepnir).

Problem: In the debugger ">up" and ">frame" select an older function call
frame, but get_funccal_local_ht() and the related functions check
current_funccal while returning a dictionary of the frame that
get_funccal() selected. A :def function keeps its local variables
on the vim9 stack, its funccall_T has no l: and a: dictionaries and
is allocated cleared, so with such a frame selected the returned
hashtab has a NULL ht_array and evaluating any variable name at the
debug prompt crashes in hash_lookup().
Solution: Check the funccal that is actually used and return NULL when it has
no l: variables, so that the variable is reported as undefined
instead.

Also, s:NetrwHome() checks has('nvim') before exists('$MYVIMDIR'). This
ordering does make sense as Nvim's docs have no mention of $MYVIMDIR.

Problem: b:match_words groups "{" with the if/for/while/switch keywords
and "}" with "break" which breaks % matching on braces
Solution: Drop the brace and bracket groups, matchit appends
'matchpairs' by itself (Matthias Bruns).
matchit counts every alternative in a group instead of pairing the
alternatives with each other. Listing `{` alongside the if, for,
while, switch, struct and class keywords therefore makes a line such
as `for (...) {` count as two openers, and listing `break` alongside
`}` lets a brace pair with a break statement. As a result % on the
opening brace of a function does not move at all, and % on
`switch (x) {` jumps to `break;` instead of the closing brace.
Braces and brackets do not need to be listed: matchit appends
'matchpairs' to b:match_words by itself. Drop them and leave the
preprocessor group unchanged.

Problem:
- Dot-repeat of a Visual selection prepared by a `<Cmd>` mapping,
results in E1255 and leaves Visual mode active.
- Visual-mode capture is implemented as a second, parallel "capture
engine": it re-composes a CmdSpec from cmdarg_T per key and decides
replayability from its own table of "void" key classes.
Solution:
- Model nested `normal_execute()` as a `CmdFrame` stack,
instead of a single module-scoped `stage`.
- Capture `<Cmd>` ":norm …" commands as subatoms from its nested frames.
- Produce every command exactly once; atom_push_raw() routes the atom to
the Visual composite while a selection is open, like it already does
for mapping composites.
- `v/pat<CR>d` is now repeatable and cascades.
Problem: The hit-enter prompt fires whenever a message scrolls the screen.
When this happens while a mapping is being processed, it consumes
the mapping's next key, causing unexpected behavior for users.
Solution: Similar to what 9.1.1969 did for stuffed characters, skip the
hit-enter prompt when there are still keys pending from a mapping
in the typeahead buffer.

Problem:
There is no unified notion of a "user action".
Vim processes input by one-char-at-a-time, and mostly throws away any
hints it might gather about the user's action, with one exception: it
stores the last _edit_ action (the "redo buffer", encoded as
unstructured `["x][v][count]body` bytes).
Plugins can only observe individual keys (vim.on_key) and high-level
effects (TextChanged, CursorMoved).
Solution:
- Users can subscribe to `CmdAtom` events to handle any user action.
- Event is deferred; handlers cannot cancel or interfere with user
actions.
- Capture `CmdSpec` from the normal/insert/visual subsystems.
- typeahead/readahead stay unstructured (`buffheader_T`): they are key
streams, not commands.
- the redo/record buffers become `StringBuilder`: fewer
allocations/copies.
- Repurpose the input/redo engine to accept `CmdSpec` objects.
"atom": one repeatable unit of user input, as a resolved (post-mapping)
keysequence plus structured fields. Only user actions, not `:normal`,
API calls, or non-"t" `feedkeys`.
BREAKING: dot-repeat of an Insert session, replays the entire session
including cursor-moves (:help ins-repeat).
BREAKING: dot-repeat of a Visual operation, replays the selection
instead of operating on a fixed-size region.
Problem: transstr() has comments that do not add anything to what the

Problem: sort() with "n", "N" or "f" converts an item to its number on
every comparison. For "n" that is a tv2string() plus strtod()
per comparison, so sorting a list of numbers turns each number
into a string and back O(n log n) times, dwarfing the sort.
Solution: Compute the numeric key of each item once, before the sort,
and compare the stored key (Samuel Schlesinger). Only the
builtin numeric compare modes are affected; uniq(), which
passes a bare list item to the compare function, and the
string and user-function paths are unchanged.
Sorting a list of 100000 numbers (min of 3, macOS arm64):
- sort(l, 'n'): 0.205s -> 0.017s
- sort(l, 'N'): 0.017s -> 0.010s
- sort(l, 'f'): 0.014s -> 0.010s
The result is identical, including that a string is still treated as 0
in "n" mode and that "N" keeps full 64-bit precision.
Add Test_sort_numeric_precomputed(): a large shuffled list sorted with
"n", mixed integers and floats, int64 values beyond the exact range of
a double for "N", and uniq() over the non-precomputed path.

Problem: Reading an undo file resolves every stored sequence number
with a linear scan over all headers, making loading
quadratic in the number of undo states.
Solution: Sort uhp_table on uh_seq once and resolve each reference
with a binary search; the duplicate uh_seq check becomes a
single pass over the sorted table (Samuel Schlesinger).
At the default 'undolevels' of 1000 the quadratic cost is not
measurable; it takes 'undolevels' in the tens of thousands to matter.
Loading an undo file with 20000 states and 50 alternate branches with
:rundo goes from 1.49s to 0.11s (min of 3, macOS arm64), with the
same undotree().
Also make old_idx/new_idx/cur_idx and the loop index "i" long instead
of short/int: they index uhp_table, whose length num_head is a long
read from the file. A short index truncated above 32767 headers,
making the restored b_u_oldhead/b_u_newhead/b_u_curhead pointers
wrong in exactly the many-headers case this change is about.
Add tests: a round-trip test with alternate branches that compares
the entries of the tree and the text at every sequence number, a
corruption test with a duplicated uh_seq, and a test for reading an
undo file with zero headers, which is written when only the line for
the "U" command is saved.

Problem:
- buf-local CWD scope is lower priority than :lcd, which is weird.
```
win > buf > tab > global
```
- No way to clear current CWD at a given scope.
Solution:
- Rerrange scope precedence to:
```
buf > win > tab > global
```
- Introduce "bang" variants (`:bcd!`/`:lcd!`/`:tcd!`) which clears the
local CWD for the given scope.
Problem:
- Explicit `:bcd` (etc.) persists from `nvim_buf_call()` but not from an
autocmd handler targeting a hidden buf (`LspAttach`, `TermRequest`, …),
which needs a `vim.schedule()` workaround.
- `vim._with()` is supposed to work as a "sandbox", discarding
side-effects, but it leaks CWD changes: `:lcd` from a `win` context,
any chdir from a visible-buffer context.
Solution:
- Explicit :cd/:tcd/:bcd during a temp context persists by default.
- "Ambient" directory changes ('autochdir', existing win-local CWD,
etc.) are still undone, as before.
- Add `kCtxKeepDirs`: snapshot/restore the target's full CWD state
(w/b/tp-local, global, cwd). Used by `vim._with()` and `'inccommand'`,
which must not leak state.
Problem: After :diffget into an empty buffer, undo does not restore the
empty buffer, the last line stays behind (Narendran
Gopalakrishnan)
Solution: Include the empty line of the empty buffer in the undo
information, it is deleted once the first line was obtained

Problem: "zb" scrolls incorrectly with cursor just above fold.
Solution: Handle boff.lnum being set to the last line of a fold
(zeertzjq).
With the cursor just above fold, botline_forw() moves boff.lnum to the
last line of the fold, but curwin->w_botline is at the first line of the
fold, so the boff.lnum == curwin->w_botline condition never holds.
Instead, check that boff.lnum has just moved to or past w_botline by
comparing its previous value with w_botline.
Also make a similar change to the loff.lnum check above for symmetry.
That one doesn't change behavior, as topline_back() sets loff.lnum to
the first line of a fold.
