The "*" flag in 'cpoptions' makes the command :* execute the contents of
a register. Removed because
1. the same functionality exists as :@
2. it hides :* as a useful command-line shortcut for :'<,'>
3. unlike :@ it cannot be used with the * register

This option has already been removed in the source.
Nvim does not have a GUI, so `nvim -g` does not work.
Also add `macatsui` to the list of removed options.
This removes all instances of '{not in Vi}', '{Vi: ... }', etc.
We don't care about Vi compatibility, so all of these annotations are
useless in nvim. This also removed the syntax definitions for these
items.
In addition, remove instances of '{only when compiled with +feature}'
adjacent to instances of '{not in Vi}' and friends.

closes#2535
For any of these functions, if {cmd} is a string, execute
"&shell &shellcmdflag '{cmd}'", or simply {cmd} if it's a list.
In termopen(), if the 'name' option is not supplied, try to guess using
'{cmd}' (string) or {cmd}[0] (list). Simplify ex_terminal to use the
string form of termopen().
termopen: get name from argument
Convert list_to_argv to tv_to_argv.

Old behaviour: termopen('cmd') would run `&shell &shcf "cmd"`, which
caused the functional tests to fail on some systems due to the process
not "owning" the terminal. Also, it is inconsistent with jobstart().
Modify termopen() so that &shell is not invoked, but maintain the old
behaviour with :terminal. Factor the common code for building the
argument vector from jobstart() and modify the functional tests to call
termopen() instead of :terminal (fixes#2354).
Also:
* Add a 'name' option for termopen() so that `:terminal {cmd}` produces
a buffer named "term//{cwd}/{cmd}" and termopen() users can customize
the name.
* Update the documentation.
* Add functional tests for `:terminal` sinse its behaviour now differs
from termopen(). Add "test/functional/fixtures/shell-test.c" and move
"test/functional/job/tty-test.c" there, too.

Problem: Using a range for window and buffer commands has a few
problems.
Cannot specify the type of range for a user command.
Solution: Add the -addr argument for user commands. Fix problems.

Patch 7.4.539 (after 7.4.530)
Problem: Crash when computing buffer count. Problem with range for
user commands. Line range wrong in Visual area.
Solution: Avoid segfault in compute_buffer_local_count(). Check for
CMD_USER when checking type of range. (Marcin Szamotulski)

Problem: Value of v:hlsearch reflects an internal variable.
Solution: Make the value reflect whether search highlighting is actually
displayed. (Christian Brabandt)

- backticks in Vim help docs are supported by even the default
colorscheme; we should start using them for technical identifiers
instead of quotation marks.
- prefer judicious indentation to gratuitous bullets

Implement functions for spawning, destroying, and listing active
servers, and add server_address_list() to msgpack_rpc/server.c for the
serverlist() vimL function.
Regarding |script-here|: despite being a language agnostic piece of
advice, it was in `if_perl.txt`. Regardless, we now only have one
support for one legacy plugin interface, so put it in `if_pyth.txt`
Rubycomplete requires 'if_ruby', which has never been in Neovim. Because
of this, remove some mentions of it from the docs, but keep the actual
plugin untouched (as to avoid unneeded maintainence costs). It has a
call to `has('ruby')`, so it will still fall back to syntax completion.
Problem: With some regexp patterns the NFA engine uses many states and
becomes very slow. To the user it looks like Vim freezes.
Solution: When the number of states reaches a limit fall back to the old
engine. (Christian Brabandt)

- Remove JobActivity autocmd and v:job_data variable
- Simplify `jobstart` to receive:
- An argument vector
- An optional dictionary which may contain any of the current `jobstart`
options plus `on_stdout`, `on_stderr` and `on_exit` callbacks.
- Refactor and add more job tests
- Update documentation
Problem: Language mapping also applies to mapped characters.
Solution: Add the 'langnoremap' option, when on 'langmap' does not apply to
mapped characters. (Christian Brabandt)

This documents the differences between nvim and nvim.
Regarding the removal of references to 'renderoptions': it was never
added in the first place, so there's no need to mention its "removal".
