When we convert a Lua table to an Object, we consider the table a
"dictionary" if it contains only string keys, and an array if it
contains all numeric indices with no gaps. While rare, Lua tables can
have both strictly numeric indices and gaps (e.g. { [2] = 2 }). These
currently cannot be serialized because it is not considered an array.
However, we know the maximum index of the table and as long as all of
the keys in the table are numeric, it is still possible to serialize
this table as an array. The missing indices will have nil values.
Problem: The entire marktree needs to be traversed each time a sign is
removed from the sentinel line.
Solution: Remove sentinel line and instead keep track of the number of
lines that hold up the 'signcolumn' in "max_count". Adjust this
number for added/removed signs, and set it to 0 when the
maximum number of signs on a line changes. Only when
"max_count" is decremented to 0 due to sign removal do we need
to check the entire buffer.
Also replace "invalid_top" and "invalid_bot" with a map of
invalid ranges, further reducing the number of lines to be
checked.
Also improve tree traversal when counting the number of signs.
Instead of looping over the to be checked range and counting
the overlap for each row, keep track of the overlap in an
array and add this to the count.
Problem:
Since e057b38e70#20757 we support empty key in JSON encode/decode,
but we don't allow it in RPC object => Vim dict conversion. But empty
string is a valid key in Vim dicts and the msgpack spec.
Empty string key was disallowed in 7c01d5ff92 (2014) but that
commit/PR doesn't explicitly discuss it, so presumably it was a "seems
reasonable" decision (or Vimscript didn't allow empty keys until later).
Solution:
Remove the check in `object_to_vim()`. Note that
`tv_dict_item_alloc_len` will invoke `memcpy(…, 0)` but that's allowed
by the C spec: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3751937/152142
Currently, the value of $COLORTERM in :terminal in tests depends on
outer environment because of 'notermguicolors'.
If $COLORTERM is not set in :terminal, an inner Nvim instance will try
to detect 'termguicolors' support, which may interfere with tests.
So set 'termguicolors' in outer Nvim instance unless $COLORTERM needs to
be overridden, and unset it in inner Nvim instance when running TUI.
Set 'notermguicolors' in tests which spawn a child Nvim process to force
existing tests to use 16 colors. Also refactor the child process
invocation to make things a little bit less messy.
If the color scheme is changed in a startup script, nvim used to send
multiple default_colors_set events, one for the default color scheme
and one for the user's chosen color scheme. This would cause flicker in
some UI:s. Throttle this event until we actually start drawing on the
screen.

Problem:
The test for 'nofsync' swapfile preservation on a deadly signal, does
not actually assert anything.

Check that swapfile contents are present after getting SIGTERM.
TODO: this doesn't really verify that 'fsync' was called; it still
passes with this patch:

Solution:
Relax the assertion to `fsync >= 2` instead of exactly 2.
(Note this is not a behavior change: the next assertion has always
checked `fsync == 4`, it's just that the intermediate 3rd fsync was
never explicitly asserted.)

Problem:
With vim.treesitter.foldexpr, `o`-ing two lines above a folded region
opens the fold. This does not happen with legacy foldexprs. For example,
make a markdown file with the following text (without indentation),
enable treesitter fold, and follow the instruction in the text.
put cursor on this line and type zoo<Esc>
initially folded, revealed by zo
# then this fold will be opened
initially folded, revealed by o<Esc>
Analysis:
* `o` updates folds first (done in `changed_lines`), evaluating
foldexpr, and then invokes `on_bytes` (done in `extmark_splice`).
* Treesitter fold allocates the foldinfo for added lines (`add_range`)
on `on_bytes`.
* Therefore, when treesitter foldexpr is invoked while running `o`, it
sees outdated foldinfo.
Solution:
`extmark_splice`, and then `changed_lines`. This seems to be the
standard order in other places, e.g., `nvim_buf_set_lines`.
Problem:
Not all Lua code is checked by stylua. Automating code-style is an
important mechanism for reducing time spent on accidental
(non-essential) complexity.
Solution:
- Enable lintlua for `test/unit/` directory.
- TODO: only `test/functional/` remains unchecked.

PROBLEM: `vim.treesitter.get_node()` does not recognize the `lang` in
the option table. This option was used in somewhere else, for instance,
`vim.treesitter.dev` (for `inspect_tree`) but was never implemented.
SOLUTION: Make `get_node()` correctly use `opts.lang` when getting a
treesitter parser.
Problem: Wrong scrolling in Insert mode with 'smoothscroll' at the
bottom of the window.
Solution: Don't use set_topline() when 'smoothscroll' is set.

Problem: Default color scheme is suboptimal.
Solution: Start using new color scheme. Introduce new `vim` color scheme
for opt-in backward compatibility.
------
Main design ideas
- Be "Neovim branded".
- Be minimal for 256 colors with a bit more shades for true colors.
- Be accessible through high enough contrast ratios.
- Be suitable for dark and light backgrounds via exchange of dark and
light palettes.
------
Palettes
- Have dark and light variants. Implemented through exporeted
`NvimDark*` and `NvimLight*` hex colors.
- Palettes have 4 shades of grey for UI elements and 6 colors (red,
yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta).
- Actual values are computed procedurally in Oklch color space based on
a handful of hyperparameters.
- Each color has a 256 colors variant with perceptually closest color.
------
Highlight groups
Use:
- Grey shades for general UI according to their design.
- Bold text for keywords (`Statement` highlight group). This is an
important choice to increase accessibility for people with color
deficiencies, as it doesn't rely on actual color.
- Green for strings, `DiffAdd` (as background), `DiagnosticOk`, and some
minor text UI elements.
- Cyan as main syntax color, i.e. for function usage (`Function`
highlight group), `DiffText`, `DiagnosticInfo`, and some minor text UI
elements.
- Red to generally mean high user attention, i.e. errors; in particular
for `ErrorMsg`, `DiffDelete`, `DiagnosticError`.
- Yellow very sparingly only with true colors to mean mild user
attention, i.e. warnings. That is, `DiagnosticWarn` and `WarningMsg`.
- Blue very sparingly only with true colors as `DiagnosticHint` and some
additional important syntax group (like `Identifier`).
- Magenta very carefully (if at all).
------
Notes
- To make tests work without relatively larege updates, each one is
prepended with an equivalent of the call `:colorscheme vim`.
Plus some tests which spawn new Neovim instances also now use 'vim'
color scheme.
In some cases tests are updated to fit new default color scheme.
Problem: [security]: buffer-overflow in ex_substitute
Solution: clear memory after allocating
When allocating the new_start pointer in ex_substitute() the memory
pointer points to some garbage that the following for loop in
ex_cmds.c:4743 confuses and causes it to accessing the new_start pointer
beyond it's size, leading to a buffer-overlow.
So fix this by using alloc_clear() instead of alloc(), which will
clear the memory by NUL and therefore cause the loop to terminate
correctly.

Problem: [security]: stack-buffer-overflow in option callback functions
Solution: pass size of errbuf down the call stack, use snprintf()
instead of sprintf()
We pass the error buffer down to the option callback functions, but in
some parts of the code, we simply use sprintf(buf) to write into the error
buffer, which can overflow.
So let's pass down the length of the error buffer and use sprintf(buf, size)
instead.

Problem: [security]: buffer-overflow in suggest_trie_walk
Solution: Check n before using it as index into byts array
Basically, n as an index into the byts array, can point to beyond the byts
array. So let's double check, that n is within the expected range after
incrementing it from sp->ts_curi and bail out if it would be invalid.

Problem: [security]: use-after-free in win-enter
Solution: validate window pointer before calling win_enter()
win_goto() may stop visual mode, if it is active. However, this may in
turn trigger the ModeChanged autocommand, which could potentially free
the wp pointer which was valid before now became stale and points to now
freed memory.
So before calling win_enter(), let's verify one more time, that the
wp pointer still points to a valid window structure.

This reverts commit fe30d8ccef.
The original commit intends to prevent heap-use-after-free with EXITFREE
caused by changedtick_di, which is no longer a problem.
Freeing buffers after freeing variables will cause heap-use-after-free
with EXITFREE when a partial is used as prompt callback.
Problem: html.angular ft is problematic
Solution: partly revert v9.0.2137
The html.angular filetype causes issues and does not trigger FileType
autocommands for the html or angular filetypes.
So let's roll back that particular change and detect this only as html
file

Some escape sequences (in particular, OSC 52 paste responses) can be
very large, even unbounded in length. These can easily overflow
termkey's internal buffer. In order to process these long sequences,
dynamically grow termkey's internal buffer.
