Analogous to nodejs's `on('data', …)` interface, here on_key is the "add
listener" interface.

BREAKING_CHANGE: vim.register_keystroke_callback() is now an error.
I mistakenly suggested maxlines=&cmdwinheight, forgetting that it is
calculated from topline, not cursor. maxlines=1 makes the most sense in
cmdwin.
ref #15401622a36b1f1
Add a new default autocommand to limit syntax highlighting
synchronization in the command window. This refactors the nvim_terminal
autocommand out of main() and into a new init_default_autocmds()
function, which is now part of the startup process and can be further
extended with more default autocommands down the road.
ref #6289#6399
while there is some controversy, stdpath('cache') looks like a better fit for logs than stdpath('data'): you can remove logs without preventing nvim to work which fits the XDG_CACHE_HOME definition of `user specific non-essential data files`.
- remove redundant autocmd list
This "grouped" list is useless, it only gets in the way when searching
for event names.
- intro.txt: cleanup
- starting.txt: update, revisit
- doc: `:help bisect`
- mbyte.txt: update aliases 1656367b90. closes#11960
- options: remove 'guifontset'. Why:
- It is complicated and is used by almost no one.
- It is unlikely to be implemented by Nvim GUIs (complicated to parse,
specific to Xorg...).
Problem: Can execute shell commands in rvim through interfaces.
Solution: Disable using interfaces in restricted mode. Allow for writing
file with writefile(), histadd() and a few others.

Nvim notes:
- Nvim does not support "-u DEFAULTS", that change is omitted.
- Also add 'shadafile' as an alias to 'viminfofile'.
- Deprecate 'viminfofile'.
Problem: Not easy to start Vim cleanly without changing the viminfo file.
Not possible to know whether the -i command line flag was used.
Solution: Add the --clean command line argument. Add the 'viminfofile'
option. Add "-u DEFAULTS".

The purpose of the {Nvim} hint was not well-defined, and its usage
inconsistent. It's also unnecessary.
Nvim-Vim differences are centralized at:

Removed things are centralized at:

Developer guidelines for documentation are listed at:

Give embeders a chance to set up nvim, by processing a request before
startup. This allows an external UI to show messages and prompts from
--cmd and buffer loading (e.g. swap files)
Problem: MS-Windows users expect -? to work like --help.
Solution: Add -?. (Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#2867)

Include runtime/ changes from 85eee130f4 to pass 8.1.0231 tests.
Vim supports multiple locations for the user's vimrc, so it will use the
first one that is found, ignoring the rest. Nvim follows the XDG spec,
so there is only one place to look for the user's vimrc, thus making the
statement unnecessary and confusing for nvim users.
Ref #8871
This changes Ex mode (Q, -e) to work like Vim's "improved Ex mode"
(gQ, -E). That brings some small behavior differences, but should not
impact most Ex scripts (unless, for example, they depend on mappings
being disabled--but that can be solved for -e by skipping user config).
Before this change:
* the screen test hangs.
After this change:
* Q acts like gQ.
* -e/-es differs from -E/-Es only in its treatment of stdin.
This moves towards potentially removing getexmodeline().
(HINT: That does NOT mean "removing Ex mode", it means removing the
Vi-compatible Ex mode, which differs from Vim's "improved Ex mode" only
in some minor details (e.g. mappings are disabled).)
ref #1089 :-)~
Fixes 2 failing tests in startup_spec.lua.
The Windows-only `--literal` option complicates support of "stdin-as-text
+ file-args" (#7679). Could work around it, but it's not worth
the trouble:
- users have a reasonable (and englightening) alternative: nvim +"n *"
- "always literal" is more consistent/predictable
- avoids platform-specific special-case
Unrelated changes:
- Replace fileno(stdxx) with STDXX_FILENO for consistency (not motivated
by any observed technical reason).
