`-NonInteractive` at least somewhat hints to pwsh/powershell, that shell
sessions created from :! are not interactive, though even that is not
foolproof, because powershell is weird.
`$PSStyle.OutputRendering='plaintext'` causes pwsh/powershell
to omit ANSI escape sequences in its output.
Problem: 'findexpr' completion doesn't set v:fname to cmdline argument.
Solution: Set v:fname to the cmdline argument as-is (zeertzjq).

feat(diagnostics)!: sort underline with severity_sort
BREAKING CHANGE: underline will be applied with a higher value than `vim.hl.priorities.diagnostics`
The workspace folder name is meant to be a human-readable name which is
only used in the UI. Comparing the name against root_dir is thus not
a valid comparison. Instead, we should compare the workspace folder's
URI against the root dir URI.
Problem: novice users relying on vimtutor won't know what to do when they follow the instructions and delete a couple lines and that breaks the line checker
Solution: tell the user to fix the line numbers after they're done
* deprecate old signatures
* move to new str_byteindex/str_utfindex signature
* use single-underscore name (double-underscore is reserved for Lua itself)
Problem: We use `void *` for option default values, which is confusing and can cause problems with type-correctness. It also doesn't accomodate for multitype options. On top of that, it also leads to default boolean option values not behaving correctly on big endian systems.
Solution: Use `OptVal` for option default values.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `:set {option}<` removes the local value for all global-local options instead of just string global-local options.
- `:setlocal {option}<` copies the global value to the local value for number and boolean global-local options instead of removing the local value.
Problem:
`lsp.buf_request` send the same params to all servers and many
calls to this pass PositionalParams which depends on the clients
offset_encoding. This can result with incorrect params being sent
to a server.
Solution:
`lsp.buf_request` `params` argument can now be passed as a function
which takes the client as the first argument. This is used in
lsp/buf.lua to construct correct params for each client request.
PROBLEM:
There are several limitations to vim.str_byteindex, vim.str_utfindex:
1. They throw given out-of-range indexes. An invalid (often user/lsp-provided)
index doesn't feel exceptional and should be handled by the caller.
`:help dev-error-patterns` suggests that `retval, errmsg` is the preferred
way to handle this kind of failure.
2. They cannot accept an encoding. So LSP needs wrapper functions. #25272
3. The current signatures are not extensible.
* Calling: The function currently uses a fairly opaque boolean value to
indicate to identify the encoding.
* Returns: The fact it can throw requires wrapping in pcall.
4. The current name doesn't follow suggestions in `:h dev-naming` and I think
`get` would be suitable.
SOLUTION:
- Because these are performance-sensitive, don't introduce `opts`.
- Introduce an "overload" that accepts `encoding:string` and
`strict_indexing:bool` params.
```lua
local col = vim.str_utfindex(line, encoding, [index, [no_out_of_range]])
```
Support the old versions by dispatching on the type of argument 2, and
deprecate that form.
```lua
vim.str_utfindex(line) -- (utf-32 length, utf-16 length), deprecated
vim.str_utfindex(line, index) -- (utf-32 index, utf-16 index), deprecated
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16') -- utf-16 length
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', index) -- utf-16 index
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', math.huge) -- error: index out of range
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', math.huge, false) -- utf-16 length
```

Problem:
Hidden options are documented despite being no-ops.
Solution:
Remove docs for hidden options.
Move tags for options that we plan to restore, to ":help nvim-missing".
Move tags for permanently removed options, to ":help nvim-removed".
Problem: testing of options can be further improved
Solution: split the generated option test into test_options_all.vim,
add more test cases, save and restore values, fix use-after-free

Problem:
`vim.validate()` takes two forms when it only needs one.
Solution:
- Teach the fast form all the features of the spec form.
- Deprecate the spec form.
- General optimizations for both forms.
- Add a `message` argument which can be used alongside or in place
of the `optional` argument.
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).
