Problem:
Empty string is a valid JSON key, but json_decode() treats an object
with empty key as ":help msgpack-special-dict". #20757
:echo json_decode('{"": "1"}')

Note: vim returns `{'': '1'}`.
Solution:
Allow empty string as an object key.
Note that we still (currently) disallow empty keys in object_to_vim() (since 7c01d5ff92):

Problem: trim(): hard to use default mask (partly revert v9.0.2040)
Solution: use default mask when it is empty
The default 'mask' value is pretty complex, as it includes many
characters. Yet, if one needs to specify the trimming direction, the
third argument, 'trim()' currently requires the 'mask' value to be
provided explicitly.
Currently, an empty 'mask' will make 'trim()' call return 'text' value
that is passed in unmodified. It is unlikely that someone is using it,
so the chances of scripts being broken by this change are low.
Also, this reverts commit 9.0.2040 (which uses v:none for the default
and requires to use an empty string instead).

vim-patch:9.0.2040: trim(): hard to use default mask

The default 'mask' value is pretty complex, as it includes many
characters. Yet, if one needs to specify the trimming direction, the

'v:none' is already used to mean "use the default argument value" in
user defined functions. See |none-function_argument| in help.

Problem:
The swapfile "E325: ATTENTION" dialog is displayed when editing a file
already open in another (running) Nvim. Usually this behavior is
annoying and irrelevant:
- "Recover" and the other options ("Open readonly", "Quit", "Abort") are
almost never wanted.
- swapfiles are less relevant for "multi-Nvim" since 'autoread' is
enabled by default.
- Even less relevant if user enables 'autowrite'.
Solution:
Define a default SwapExists handler which does the following:
1. If the swapfile is owned by a running Nvim process, automatically
chooses "(E)dit anyway" (caveat: this creates a new, extra swapfile,
which is mostly harmless and ignored except by `:recover` or `nvim -r`.
2. Shows a 1-line "ignoring swapfile..." message.
3. Users can disable the default SwapExists handler via `autocmd! nvim_swapfile`.

Problem: luals returns stricter diagnostics with bundled luarc.json
Solution: Improve some function and type annotations:
* use recognized uv.* types
* disable diagnostic for global `vim` in shared.lua
* docs: don't start comment lines with taglink (otherwise LuaLS will interpret it as a type)
* add type alias for lpeg pattern
* fix return annotation for `vim.secure.trust`
* rename local Range object in vim.version (shadows `Range` in vim.treesitter)
* fix some "missing fields" warnings
* add missing required fields for test functions in eval.lua
* rename lsp meta files for consistency
These two functions seem to have previously had their docs start on the same
line as the signature, which I guess contributed to the lines being lost (though
I checked all other such functions from before again and these were the only
two).
* docs(options): take ownership of options.txt
- `src/nvim/options.lua` is now the source of truth
- generate runtime/lua/vim/_meta/options.lua
* fixup! zeer comments
* fixup! zeer comments (2)
* fixup! re-enable luacheck
* fixup! regen
Now that we "own" builtin.txt, we cant remove the repetitive mention of
Vimscript's UFCS syntax. It's noisy to mention this for each function,
and it's also not a Vimscript feature that should be encouraged.
Also change the builtin.txt heading to "NVIM REFERENCE MANUAL", which
indicates when a help file is Nvim-owned.
- eval.lua is now the source of truth.
- Formatting is much more consistent.
- Fixed Lua type generation for polymorphic functions (get(), etc).
- Removed "Overview" section from builtin.txt
- Can generate this if we really want it.
- Moved functions from sign.txt and testing.txt into builtin.txt.
- Removed the *timer* *timers* tags since libuv timers via vim.uv should be preferred.
- Removed the temp-file-name tag from tempname()
- Moved lueval() from lua.txt to builtin.txt.
* Fix indent
* fixup!
* fixup! fixup!
* fixup! better tag formatting
* fixup: revert changes no longer needed
* fixup! CI

Prepare for https://github.com/neovim/tree-sitter-vimdoc/pull/108 which improves
`{arg}` highlighting in many common cases:
vim.foo({bar})
vim.foo( {bar})
nvim_foo({bar})
nvim_foo({bar},{baz})
nvim_foo({bar}, {baz})
foo[{buf}]
The tradeoff is that things like `"[{"` are flagged as parse errors.
We could avoid if we drop support for `foo[{buf}]`, but that is rather common
(see `builtin.txt`).
Enforce consistent terminology (defined in
`gen_help_html.lua:spell_dict`) for common misspellings.
This does not spellcheck English in general (perhaps a future TODO,
though it may be noisy).

Problem:
If vim_tempdir mysteriously goes missing (typically by "antivirus" on
Windows), any plugins using tempname() will be broken for the rest of
the session. #1432#9833https://groups.google.com/g/vim_use/c/ef55jNm5czI
Steps:
mkdir foo
TMPDIR=./foo nvim
:echo tempname()
!rm -r foo
:echo tempname()
tempname() still uses the foo path even though it was deleted.
Solution:
- Don't assume that vim_tempdir exists.
- If it goes missing once, retry vim_mktempdir and log (silently) an error.
- If it goes missing again, retry vim_mktempdir and show an error.
