Solution: Add an argument to only trim the beginning or end. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6126)

Vim's popup,textprop features are N/A.
Neovim has not polyfilled their APIs.
Skip docs and tests for these features.
* support for :perl, :perlfile, :perldo and perleval()
* document that the perl provider doesn't currently work on Windows
* document that the perl legacy interface is now also supported
* added perleval() documentation
* import legacy perl interface tests
* only perl 5.22+ is supported
* healtcheck: use g:perl_host_prog if its set instead
using just 'perl' isn't correct as it may not be the version requested.
ditto for 'cpanm', rather go through 'App::cpanminus' to find the latest
perl version
- remove redundant autocmd list
This "grouped" list is useless, it only gets in the way when searching
for event names.
- intro.txt: cleanup
- starting.txt: update, revisit
- doc: `:help bisect`
- mbyte.txt: update aliases 1656367b90. closes#11960
- options: remove 'guifontset'. Why:
- It is complicated and is used by almost no one.
- It is unlikely to be implemented by Nvim GUIs (complicated to parse,
specific to Xorg...).
Problem: Not so easy to interrupt a script programatically.
Solution: Add the interrupt() function. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#2834)

When UV_OVERLAPPED_PIPE was used for the pipe passed to the child process, a
problem occurred with the standard input of the .Net Framework application
(#11809). Therefore, add the overlapped option to jobstart() and change it so
that it is set only when necessary
Problem: Cannot delete a match from another window. (Paul Jolly)

Problem: The "last used" info of a buffer is under used.
Solution: Add "lastused" to getbufinfo(). List buffers sorted by last-used
field. (Andi Massimino, closesvim/vim#4722)

Problem: A plugin cannot easily expand a command like done internally.
Solution: Add the expandcmd() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4514)

Problem: :echomsg and :echoerr do not handle List and Dict like :echo does.
(Daniel Hahler)
Solution: Be more tolerant about the expression result type.

Add lua functional tests for :echo,:echon,:echomsg,:echoerr
because nvim did not port "test_" functions from Vim
that modify internal state.
Testing :echoerr via try/catch is sufficient.
Problem: MS-Windows: Cannot interrupt gdb when program is running.
Solution: Add debugbreak() and use it in the terminal debugger.
Respect 'modified' in a prompt buffer.

In a multi-window scenario, it is possible to return focus to the last
accessed window via n_CTRL-W_p. However, in the case of a multi-tab
scenario, there was previously no way to return focus to the last
accessed *tab*. Here, that ability is added via n_g<tab>.
Additionally, the index of the previous tab is exposed via
tabpagenr('#'), mirroring the existing functionality of winnr('#').
Problem: Not possible to hide a balloon.
Solution: Hide the balloon when balloon_show() is called with an empty
string or list. Add balloon_gettext().

Problem: Cannot get the window id associated with the location list.
Solution: Add the "filewinid" argument to getloclist(). (Yegappan

Problem: Heredoc assignment has no room for new features. (FUJIWARA Takuya)
Solution: Require the marker does not start with a lower case character.
(closesvim/vim#4705)
2458200729
Problem: :let-heredoc does not trim enough.
Solution: Trim indent from the contents based on the indent of the first
line. Use let-heredoc in more tests.
