When a terminal application running inside the terminal emulator sets
the cursor shape or blink status of the cursor, update the cursor in the
parent terminal to match.
This removes the "virtual cursor" that has been in use by the terminal
emulator since the beginning. The original rationale for using the
virtual cursor was to avoid having to support additional UI methods to
change the cursor color for other (non-TUI) UIs, instead relying on the
TermCursor and TermCursorNC highlight groups.
The TermCursor highlight group is now used in the default 'guicursor'
value, which has a new entry for Terminal mode. However, the
TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported: since terminal
windows now use the real cursor, when the window is not focused there is
no cursor displayed in the window at all, so there is nothing to
highlight. Users can still use the StatusLineTermNC highlight group to
differentiate non-focused terminal windows.
BREAKING CHANGE: The TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported.
Problem:
- API functions using `try_start` directly, do not surface the
underlying error message, and instead show generic messages.
- Error-handling code is duplicated in the API impl.
- Failure modes are not tested.
Solution:
- Use `TRY_WRAP`.
- Add tests.
Before calling "attach" a screen object is just a dummy container for
(row, col) values whose purpose is to be sent as part of the "attach"
function call anyway.
Just create the screen in an attached state directly. Keep the complete
(row, col, options) config together. It is still completely valid to
later detach and re-attach as needed, including to another session.
This module is generally used by any tests that need the full Nvim TUI
instead of `screen.lua`. Thus it should live in `functional/` instead of
in `functional/terminal/`.
- `alter_slashes` belongs in `testutil.lua`, not `testnvim.lua`.
- `alter_slashes` is an unusual name. Rename it to `fix_slashes`.
- invert its behavior, to emphasize that `/` slashes are the preferred,
pervasive convention, not `\` slashes.
Problem: `CompleteDone` currently does not specify the reason for why completion was done, which is problematic for completion plugins as they cannot know whether the event was triggered due to the completion being canceled, accepted, or for some other reason.
Solution: Add a `reason` key to `v:event`, which is set by `CompleteDone` to indicate why completion ended.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.

Also close Nvim instance before removing log file, otherwise the Nvim
instance will still write to the log file.
Also adjust log level in libuv_process_spawn(). Ref #27660
Problem: Normal mode TextChanged isn't tested properly.
Solution: Combine Test_Changed_ChangedI() and Test_Changed_ChangedI_2()
and also run it on Windows. Fix a typo in main.c.

The changes to filetype.vim are N/A since Nvim always prefers filename

This is the command invoked repeatedly to make the changes:
:%s/^\(.*\)|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$\n\1|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$/\=submatch(1)..'|*'..(max([str2nr(submatch(2)),1])+max([str2nr(submatch(3)),1]))/g
Set 'notermguicolors' in tests which spawn a child Nvim process to force
existing tests to use 16 colors. Also refactor the child process
invocation to make things a little bit less messy.
Problem: Default color scheme is suboptimal.
Solution: Start using new color scheme. Introduce new `vim` color scheme
for opt-in backward compatibility.
------
Main design ideas
- Be "Neovim branded".
- Be minimal for 256 colors with a bit more shades for true colors.
- Be accessible through high enough contrast ratios.
- Be suitable for dark and light backgrounds via exchange of dark and
light palettes.
------
Palettes
- Have dark and light variants. Implemented through exporeted
`NvimDark*` and `NvimLight*` hex colors.
- Palettes have 4 shades of grey for UI elements and 6 colors (red,
yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta).
- Actual values are computed procedurally in Oklch color space based on
a handful of hyperparameters.
- Each color has a 256 colors variant with perceptually closest color.
------
Highlight groups
Use:
- Grey shades for general UI according to their design.
- Bold text for keywords (`Statement` highlight group). This is an
important choice to increase accessibility for people with color
deficiencies, as it doesn't rely on actual color.
- Green for strings, `DiffAdd` (as background), `DiagnosticOk`, and some
minor text UI elements.
- Cyan as main syntax color, i.e. for function usage (`Function`
highlight group), `DiffText`, `DiagnosticInfo`, and some minor text UI
elements.
- Red to generally mean high user attention, i.e. errors; in particular
for `ErrorMsg`, `DiffDelete`, `DiagnosticError`.
- Yellow very sparingly only with true colors to mean mild user
attention, i.e. warnings. That is, `DiagnosticWarn` and `WarningMsg`.
- Blue very sparingly only with true colors as `DiagnosticHint` and some
additional important syntax group (like `Identifier`).
- Magenta very carefully (if at all).
------
Notes
- To make tests work without relatively larege updates, each one is
prepended with an equivalent of the call `:colorscheme vim`.
Plus some tests which spawn new Neovim instances also now use 'vim'
color scheme.
In some cases tests are updated to fit new default color scheme.
Problem: ml_get error when scrolling after delete
Solution: mark topline to be validated in main_loop
if it is larger than current buffers line
count
reset_lnums() is called after e.g. TextChanged autocommands and it may
accidentally cause curwin->w_topline to become invalid, e.g. if the
autocommand has deleted some lines.
So verify that curwin->w_topline points to a valid line and if not, mark
the window to have w_topline recalculated in main_loop() in
update_topline() after reset_lnums() returns.
fixes: vim/vim#13568fixes: vim/vim#13578c4ffeddfe5
The error doesn't happen in Nvim because Nvim triggers TextChanged after
calling update_topline().

Problem: Temporarily changing current window in a script causes
CursorMoved to be triggerd.
Solution: Don't trigger CursorMoved if neither curwin nor cursor
changed between two checks.
The terminal buffer closes automatically when using `:terminal` and the
command exits without an error. This messes up some tests that expect
the terminal buffer to still be open. We can force the buffer not to
close by passing an argument to `:terminal`. This can be anything, since
the shell-test stub simply prints whatever argument it's given.
