- Extract `process_interrupts` out of `convert_input`
- Instead of waiting for os_breakcheck/os_inchar calls, call `convert_input`
and `process_interrupts` directly from the read callback in input.c.
- Remove the `settmode` calls from `job_wait`. Now that interrupts are
processed in the event loop, there's no need to set the terminal to cooked
which introduces other problems(ref 7.4.427)
Since the introduction of the FOR_ALL_BUFFERS macro, 'sign unplace id'
without a buffer was only removing the sign from the first buffer rather
than all buffers, as described in the documentation.

The JobEvent structure may refer to a job after it has been freed. Apply
@tarruda's patch to extract the job data before pushing the event.
Also, fix the type, "data" -> "job", in on_job_exit() and free the job
name in the last job event.
- Move the cleanup function definition into `restart()` so restart can be
selectively used as a hook
- Improve error handling: Before this, errors while running the event loop would
cause busted to get stuck. Now the error is properly raised by stopping the
event loop first.
- Expose more logging control from the log.c module(get log stream and omit
newlines)
- Remove logging from the generated functions in msgpack-gen.lua
- Refactor channel.c/helpers.c to log every msgpack-rpc payload using
msgpack_object_print(a helper function from msgpack.h)
- Remove the api_stringify function, it was only useful for logging msgpack-rpc
which is now handled by msgpack_object_print.
It's possible that a child process won't close it's standard streams, even after
it exits. This can be evidenced with the "xclip" program:
:call system('xclip -i -selection clipboard', 'DATA')
Before this commit, the above command wouldn't return, even though the xclip
program had exited. That is because `xclip` wasn't closing it's stdout/stderr
streams, which would block pending_refs from ever reaching 0.
Now the job.c module was refactored to ensure all streams are closed when the
uv_process_t handle is closed.
When stdio was closed, parse_msgpack was called with eof == true, with caused a
free_channel call. To ensure the correct behavior for all types of channels, the
close_channel must be called before free_channel.

We use INFO as the default log level, which leaves code inside DLOG macros
unverified(currently it has compilation errors).
Decrease the log level on travis builds for automatic verification in PRs.
All files under the os, api and msgpack_rpc directories have -Wconversion
automatically applied. CONV_SOURCES is also checked for missing files(when
renaming, for example)
Since all API functions now run immediately after a msgpack-rpc request is
parsed by libuv callbacks, a mechanism was added to override this behavior and
allow certain functions to run in Nvim main loop.
The mechanism is simple: Any API function tagged with the FUNC_ATTR_DEFERRED (a
"dummy" attribute only used by msgpack-gen.lua) will be called when Nvim main
loop receives a K_EVENT key.
To implement this mechanism it was necessary some restructuration on the
msgpack-rpc modules, especially in the msgpack-gen.lua script.
JobActivity autocommands run vimscript and must be executed on Nvim main loop.
Since the previous commit removed automatic calls to `event_push` on RStream/Job
callbacks, this adds it back, but in eval.c where job control is implemented.
A pattern that is becoming common across the project is to poll for events until
a certain condition is true, optionally passing a timeout. To address this
scenario, the event_poll_until macro was created and the job/channel/input
modules were refactored to use it on their blocking functions.
This is how asynchronous events are currently handled by Nvim:
- Libuv event loop is entered when Nvim blocks for user input(os_inchar is
called)
- Any event delivered by libuv that is not user input is queued for processing
- The `K_EVENT` special key code is returned by os_inchar
- `K_EVENT` is returned to a loop that is reading keys for the current Nvim
mode, which will be handled by calling event_process()
This approach has the advantage of integrating nicely with the current
codebase, eg: vimscript code can be executed asynchronously with little
surprises(Its the same as if the user typed a key).
The problem with using keys to represent any event is that it also interferes with
operators, and not every event needs or should do that. For example, consider
this scenario:
- A msgpack-rpc client calls vim_feedkeys("d")
- Nvim processes K_EVENT, pushing "d" to the input queue
- Nvim processes "d", entering operator-pending mode to wait for a motion
- The client calls vim_feedkeys("w"), expecting Nvim to delete a word
- Nvim processes K_EVENT, breaking out of operator-pending and pushing "w"
- Nvim processes "w", moving a word
This commit fixes the above problem by removing all automatic calls to
`event_push`(which is what generates K_EVENT input). Right now this also breaks
redrawing initiated by asynchronous events(and possibly other stuff too, Nvim is
a complex state machine and we can't simply run vimscript code anywhere).
In future commits the calls to `event_push` will be inserted only where it's
absolutely necessary to run code in "key reading loops", such as when executing
vimscript code or mutating editor data structures in ways that currently can
only be done by the user.
