- Return VimL errors instead of generic errors for:
- nvim_call_function
- nvim_call_dict_function
- Fix tests which were silently broken before this change.
This violates #6150 where we agreed not to translate API errors. But
that can be fixed later.
The `internal` param is difficult to explain, and will rarely be
anything but `true`. To avoid it, use a hack: check if the resolved
dict value starts with "function(".
Make `:verbose set ...` show when an option was last modified by an
API client or Lua script/chunk. In the case of an API client, the
channel ID is displayed.
Implement nvim_command_output with `execute({cmd},"silent")`.
Behavior changes:
- does not provoke any hit-enter prompt
- no longer prepends a newline char
- does not capture some noise (like the "[New File]" message, see the
change to tabnewentered_spec.lua)
Technically ("bug-for-bug") this a breaking change. But the previous
behavior of nvim_command_output meant that it probably wasn't used for
anything outside of tests.
Also remove the undocumented `v:command_output` variable which was
a hack introduced only for the purposes of nvim_command_output.

Change all tests to ensure a server was actually started before
expecting it to be returned from serverlist().
With the old behavior, if a GUI makes a blocking request that requires user
interaction (like nvim_input()), it would not get any screen updates.
The client, not nvim, should decide how to handle notifications during a
pending request. If an rplugin wants to avoid async calls while a sync call is
busy, it likely wants to avoid processing async calls while another async call
also is handled as well.
This may break the expectation of some existing rplugins. For compatibility,
remote/define.vim reimplements the old behavior. Clients can opt-out by
specifying `sync=urgent`.
- Legacy hosts should be updated to use `sync=urgent`. They could add a flag
indicating which async methods are always safe to call and which must wait
until the main loop returns.
- New hosts can expose the full asyncness, they don't need to offer both
behaviors.

Added test/functional/api/highlight_spec.lua
HL_NORMAL is not really a good name, since it's more like an empty attribute than the normal's one.
If one pays attention, syn_cterm_attr2entry is never called with attr=0 because it's always special cased before.
I suggest in subsequent PRs we remove the ATTR_OFF and just insert an EMPTY ATTR/RESET_ATTR/UNINITIALIZED for id 0.
