The hexadecimal notation is a Luajit extension which is not compatible with Lua
5.1. While Lua 5.2 does support hexadecimal sequences, it is better to target
Lua 5.1 for maximum compatibility with Luajit(which has fully compatible with
5.1 API/ABI).
Background: Vim internally prefers to represent ALT/META chords as
single-byte keys, by setting the high bit of the key byte.
extract_modifiers() _discards_ the meta/alt modifier, but we need it for
libvterm and libtermkey.

This change adds switch cases for K_FOCUSGAINED and K_FOCUSLOST to the
input handling functions in ex_getln.c and terminal.c. The handling is
identical to what's found in edit.c (just calling apply_autocmds).
If one enters cmdline-mode by feeding `:` and sends a focuslost event (by
leaving the window for example) the text `<FocusLost>` will be inserted
into the command line. There is similar behaviour in terminal mode. This
patch corrects this behavior to fire the apropriate autocmd instead.
Fixes#3714
Previously, the screen test was expecting the screen state to be
identical to the previous screen test in `thelpers.screen_setup()`,
which is indeterministic. (The later screen test can accidentally
still see the previous identical state). The solution is to add a test
for a intermediate different state.
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.

Pressing <C-\> and then a mouse click will insert the click into the
terminal as if a keyboard button had been pressed.
Keep track of whether the last input was <C-\> and only call
terminal_send_key() if the next input is a key press.
While in a terminal and insert mode, if an event caused loss of focus,
nvim would stay in the terminal event loop causing an inconsistent view
of internal state and/or segfault.
Remove the "term" argument from terminal_enter() as it only makes sense
to call it with curbuf->terminal. Terminate the loop when switched to a
different buffer.
fixes#2301
- Modify tty-test to allow easier control over the terminal
- Add a new directory with various terminal tests/specifications
- Remove a pending job/pty test.
- Flush stdout in Screen:snapshot_util() (avoid waiting for the test to finish)
- Replace libuv sigwinch watcher by a sigaction handler. libuv randomly fails to
deliver signals on OSX. Might be related to the problem fixed by
@bbcddc55ee1e5605657592644be0102ed3a5f104 (under the hoods, libuv uses a pipe
to deliver signals to the main thread, which might be blocking in some
situations)
