runtime(doc): some improvements to getregion() docs (vim/vim#14122)
- Mention the default selection behavior
- Remove useless sentence
- Correct description about space padding

Problem: getregion() can be improved (after v9.1.120)
Solution: change getregion() implementation to use pos as lists and
one optional {opt} dictionary (Shougo Matsushita)
Note: The following is a breaking change!
Currently, the getregion() function (included as of patch v9.1.120) takes
3 arguments: the first 2 arguments are strings, describing a position,
arg3 is the type string.
However, that is slightly inflexible, there is no way to specify
additional arguments. So let's instead change the function signature to:
getregion(pos1, pos2 [, {Dict}]) where both pos1 and pos2 are lists.
This is slightly cleaner, and gives us the flexibility to specify
additional arguments as key/value pairs to the optional Dict arg.
Now it supports the "type" key to specify the selection type
(characterwise, blockwise or linewise) and now in addition one can also
define the selection type, independently of what the 'selection' option
actually is.
Technically, this is a breaking change, but since the getregion()
Vimscript function is still quite new, this should be fine.

Problem:
The documentation flow (`gen_vimdoc.py`) has several issues:
- it's not very versatile
- depends on doxygen
- doesn't work well with Lua code as it requires an awkward filter script to convert it into pseudo-C.
- The intermediate XML files and filters makes it too much like a rube goldberg machine.
Solution:
Re-implement the flow using Lua, LPEG and treesitter.
- `gen_vimdoc.py` is now replaced with `gen_vimdoc.lua` and replicates a portion of the logic.
- `lua2dox.lua` is gone!
- No more XML files.
- Doxygen is now longer used and instead we now use:
- LPEG for comment parsing (see `scripts/luacats_grammar.lua` and `scripts/cdoc_grammar.lua`).
- LPEG for C parsing (see `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua`)
- Lua patterns for Lua parsing (see `scripts/luacats_parser.lua`).
- Treesitter for Markdown parsing (see `scripts/text_utils.lua`).
- The generated `runtime/doc/*.mpack` files have been removed.
- `scripts/gen_eval_files.lua` now instead uses `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua` directly.
- Text wrapping is implemented in `scripts/text_utils.lua` and appears to produce more consistent results (the main contributer to the diff of this change).

To align the output of `nvim_get_hl` with its documentation -- which
points to `nvim_set_hl`, remove mentions of the keys `foreground`,
`background` and `special`.
The long keys are are still supported (via fallback checks inside
`dict2hlattrs`), but the `fg`, `bg` and `sp` keys are preferenced.
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/27428 changed the semantics of
callbacks passed to nvim_create_autocmd such that any truthy value will
delete the autocommand (rather than just the literal boolean value
`true`). Update the documentation accordingly and add an entry to
`news.txt`.
The behavior is now consistent between nvim_create_autocmd and
nvim_buf_attach.
When "q" is set in 'shortmess' it now fully hides the "recording @a" message
when you are recording a macro instead of just shortening to "recording". This
removes duplication when using reg_recording() in the statusline.

Getting current channel info was kind of annoying via RPC. Two
functions had to be called:
1. `nvim_get_api_info` which returns `[channel_id, meta_data]`.
- This results in `channel_id = api.nvim_get_api_info()[0]`.
- Here the meta_data is sent but never used.
2. Finally call `nvim_get_chan_info(channel_id)`.
This commit reduces the need for `nvim_get_api_info` as passing 0
returns current channel info.
The "priority" field of extmarks can be used to set priorities of
extmarks which dictates which highlight group a range will actually have
when there are multiple extmarks applied. However, when multiple
extmarks have the same priority, the only way to enforce an actual
priority is through the order in which the extmarks are set.
It is not always possible or desirable to set extmarks in a specific
order, however, so we add a new "subpriority" field that explicitly
enforces the ordering of extmarks that have the same priority.
For now this will be used only to enforce priority of treesitter
highlights. A single node in a treesitter tree may match multiple
captures, in which case that node will have multiple extmarks set. The
order in which captures are returned from the treesitter API is not
_necessarily_ in the same order they are defined in a query file, so we
use the new subpriority field to force that ordering.
For now subpriorites are not documented and are not meant to be used by
external code, and it only applies to ephemeral extmarks. We indicate
the "private" nature of subpriorities by prefixing the field name with
an "_".
Problem: E95 is possible if a buffer called "[Command Line]" already
exists when opening the cmdwin. This can also happen if the
cmdwin's buffer could not be deleted when closing.
Solution: Un-name the cmdwin buffer, and give it a special name instead,
similar to what's done for quickfix buffers and for unnamed
prompt and scratch buffers. As a result, BufFilePre/Post are
no longer fired when opening the cmdwin. Add a "command" key
to the dictionary returned by getbufinfo() to differentiate
the cmdwin buffer instead. (Sean Dewar)

Extmarks can contain URLs which can then be drawn in any supporting UI.
In the TUI, for example, URLs are "drawn" by emitting the OSC 8 control
sequence to the TTY. On terminals which support the OSC 8 sequence this
will create clickable hyperlinks.
URLs are treated as inline highlights in the decoration subsystem, so
are included in the `DecorSignHighlight` structure. However, unlike
other inline highlights they use allocated memory which must be freed,
so they set the `ext` flag in `DecorInline` so that their lifetimes are
managed along with other allocated memory like virtual text.
The decoration subsystem then adds the URLs as a new highlight
attribute. The highlight subsystem maintains a set of unique URLs to
avoid duplicating allocations for the same string. To attach a URL to an
existing highlight attribute we call `hl_add_url` which finds the URL in
the set (allocating and adding it if it does not exist) and sets the
`url` highlight attribute to the index of the URL in the set (using an
index helps keep the size of the `HlAttrs` struct small).
This has the potential to lead to an increase in highlight attributes
if a URL is used over a range that contains many different highlight
attributes, because now each existing attribute must be combined with
the URL. In practice, however, URLs typically span a range containing a
single highlight (e.g. link text in Markdown), so this is likely just a
pathological edge case.
When a new highlight attribute is defined with a URL it is copied to all
attached UIs with the `hl_attr_define` UI event. The TUI manages its own
set of URLs (just like the highlight subsystem) to minimize allocations.
The TUI keeps track of which URL is "active" for the cell it is
printing. If no URL is active and a cell containing a URL is printed,
the opening OSC 8 sequence is emitted and that URL becomes the actively
tracked URL. If the cursor is moved while in the middle of a URL span,
we emit the terminating OSC sequence to prevent the hyperlink from
spanning multiple lines.
This does not support nested hyperlinks, but that is a rare (and,
frankly, bizarre) use case. If a valid use case for nested hyperlinks
ever presents itself we can address that issue then.
'foldtext' can be set to an empty string to disable and render the
line with:
- extmark highlight
- syntax highlighting
- search highlighting
- no line wrapping
- spelling
- conceal
- inline virtual text
- respects `fillchars:fold`
Currently normal virtual text is not displayed

Problem: The maximum 'statuscolumn' width and grow behavior is undocumented.
Solution: Define, use and document the maximum 'statuscolumn' width and grow behavior.
Problem:
Many decoration providers (treesitter injection highlighting, semantic
token highlighting, inlay hint) rely on the correctness of the `botline`
argument of `on_win` callback. However, `botline` can be smaller than
the actual line number of the last displayed line if some lines are
folded. In such cases, some decorations will be missing in the lines not
covered by `botline`.
Solution:
Validate `botline` when invoking `on_win`.
NOTE:
It seems that the old code was deliberately avoiding this presumably due
to performance reasons. However, I haven't experienced noticeable lag
after this change, and I believe the cost of botline computation would
be much smaller than the cost of decoration providers.
Problem:
For function definitions to be included in the vimdoc (formatted) and
to be exported as mpack data (unformatted), we had two internal
representations of the same function/API metadata in duplicate;
one is FunctionDoc (which was previously a dict), and the other is
doxygen XML DOM from which vimdoc (functions sections) was generated.
Solution:
We should have a single path and unified data representation
(i.e. FunctionDoc) that contains all the metadata and information about
function APIs, from which both of mpack export and vimdoc are generated.
I.e., vimdocs are no longer generated directly from doxygen XML nodes,
but generated via:
(XML DOM Nodes) ------------> FunctionDoc ------> mpack (unformatted)
Recursive Internal |
Formatting Metadata +---> vimdoc (formatted)
This refactoring eliminates the hacky and ugly use of `fmt_vimhelp` in
`fmt_node_as_vimhelp()` and all other helper functions! This way,
`fmt_node_as_vimhelp()` can simplified as it no longer needs to handle
generating of function docs, which needs to be done only in the topmost
level of recursion.
Problem: Unable to predict which byte-offset to place virtual text to

If $COLORTERM is set to "truecolor" or "24bit", or the terminal's
terminfo entry contains capabilities for Tc, RGB, or setrgbf and
setrgbb, then we assume that the terminal supports truecolor. Otherwise,
the terminal is queried (using both XTGETTCAP and SGR + DECRQSS). If the
terminal's response to these queries (if any) indicates that it supports
truecolor, then 'termguicolors' is enabled.

Problem: The legacy signlist data structures and associated functions are
redundant since the introduction of extmark signs.
Solution: Store signs defined through the legacy commands in a hashmap, placed
signs in the extmark tree. Replace signlist associated functions.
Usage of the legacy sign commands should yield no change in behavior with the
exception of:
- "orphaned signs" are now always removed when the line it is placed on is
deleted. This used to depend on the value of 'signcolumn'.
- It is no longer possible to place multiple signs with the same identifier
in a single group on multiple lines. This will now move the sign instead.
Moreover, both signs placed through the legacy sign commands and through
|nvim_buf_set_extmark()|:
- Will show up in both |sign-place| and |nvim_buf_get_extmarks()|.
- Are displayed by increasing sign identifier, left to right.
Extmark signs used to be ordered decreasingly as opposed to legacy signs.
Problem: buffer text with composing chars are converted from UTF-8
to an array of up to seven UTF-32 values and then converted back
to UTF-8 strings.
Solution: Convert buffer text directly to UTF-8 based schar_T values.
The limit of the text size is now in schar_T bytes, which is currently
31+1 but easily could be raised as it no longer multiplies the size
of the entire screen grid when not used, the full size is only required
for temporary scratch buffers.
Also does some general cleanup to win_line text handling, which was
unnecessarily complicated due to multibyte rendering being an "opt-in"
feature long ago. Nowadays, a char is just a char, regardless if it consists
of one ASCII byte or multiple bytes.
The 'termsync' option enables a mode (provided the underlying terminal
supports it) where all screen updates during a redraw cycle are buffered
and drawn together when the redraw is complete. This eliminates tearing
or flickering in cases where Nvim redraws slower than the terminal
redraws the screen.
Problem: recursive callback may cause issues on some archs
Solution: Decrease the limit drastically to 20
Recursive callback limit causes problems on some architectures
Since commit 47510f3d6598a1218958c03ed11337a43b73f48d we have a test
that causes a recursive popup callback function to be executed. However
it seems the current limit of 'maxfuncdepth' option value is still too
recursive for some 32bit architectures (e.g. 32bit ARM).
So instead of allowing a default limit of 100 (default value for
'maxfuncdepth'), let's reduce this limit to 20. I don't think there is a
use case where one would need such a high recursive callback limit and a
limit of 20 seems reasonable (although it is currently hard-coded).

Problem: statusline may look different than expected
Solution: do not check for highlighting of stl and stlnc characters
statusline fillchar may be different than expected
If the highlighting group for the statusline for the current window
|hl-StatusLine| or the non-current window |hl-StatusLineNC| are cleared
(or do not differ from each other), than Vim will use the hard-coded
fallback values '^' (for the non-current windows) or '=' (for the
current window). I believe this was done, to make sure the statusline
will always be visible and be distinguishable from the rest of the
window.
However, this may be unexpected, if a user explicitly defined those
fillchar characters just to notice that those values are then not used
by Vim.
So, let's assume users know what they are doing and just always return
the configured stl and stlnc values. And if they want the statusline to
be non-distinguishable from the rest of the window space, so be it. It
is their responsibility and Vim shall not know better what to use.

Problem: No way to have extmarks automatically removed when the range it
is attached to is deleted.
Solution: Add new 'invalidate' property that will hide a mark when the
entirety of its range is deleted. When "undo_restore" is set
to false, delete the mark from the buffer instead.
When the terminal emulator sends an OSC sequence to Nvim (as a response
to another OSC sequence that was first sent by Nvim), populate the OSC
sequence in the v:termresponse variable and fire the TermResponse event.
The escape sequence is also included in the "data" field of the
autocommand callback when the autocommand is defined in Lua.
This makes use of the already documented but unimplemented TermResponse
event. This event exists in Vim but is only fired when Vim receives a
primary device attributes response.

Problem: trim(): hard to use default mask (partly revert v9.0.2040)
Solution: use default mask when it is empty
The default 'mask' value is pretty complex, as it includes many
characters. Yet, if one needs to specify the trimming direction, the
third argument, 'trim()' currently requires the 'mask' value to be
provided explicitly.
Currently, an empty 'mask' will make 'trim()' call return 'text' value
that is passed in unmodified. It is unlikely that someone is using it,
so the chances of scripts being broken by this change are low.
Also, this reverts commit 9.0.2040 (which uses v:none for the default
and requires to use an empty string instead).

Problem: [security] use-after-free with wildmenu
Solution: properly clean up the wildmenu when exiting
Fix wildchar/wildmenu/pum memory corruption with special wildchar's
Currently, using `wildchar=<Esc>` or `wildchar=<C-\>` can lead to a
memory corruption if using wildmenu+pum, or wrong states if only using
wildmenu. This is due to the code only using one single place inside the
cmdline process loop to perform wild menu clean up (by checking
`end_wildmenu`) but there are other odd situations where the loop could
have exited and we need a post-loop clean up just to be sure. If the
clean up was not done you would have a stale popup menu referring to
invalid memory, or if not using popup menu, incorrect status line (if
`laststatus=0`).
For example, if you hit `<Esc>` two times when it's wildchar, there's a
hard-coded behavior to exit command-line as a failsafe for user, and if
you hit `<C-\><C-\><C-N>` it will also exit command-line, but the clean
up code would not have hit because of specialized `<C-\>` handling.
Fix Ctrl-E / Ctrl-Y to not cancel/accept wildmenu if they are also
used for 'wildchar'/'wildcharm'. Currently they don't behave properly,
and also have potentially memory unsafe behavior as the logic is
currently not accounting for this situation and try to do both.
(Previous patch that addressed this: vim/vim#11677)
Also, correctly document Escape key behavior (double-hit it to escape)
in wildchar docs as it's previously undocumented.
In addition, block known invalid chars to be set in `wildchar` option,
such as Ctrl-C and `<CR>`. This is just to make it clear to the user
they shouldn't be set, and is not required for this bug fix.

Problem: When clicking in the middle of a TAB, getmousepos() returns
the column of the next char instead of the TAB.
Solution: Break out of the loop when the vcol to find is inside current
char. Fix invalid memory access when calling virtcol2col() on
an empty line.

Problem: cmdline-completion for comma-separated options wrong
Solution: Fix command-line expansions for options with filenames with
commas
Fix command-line expansions for options with filenames with commas
Cmdline expansion for option values that take a comma-separated list
of file names is currently not handling file names with commas as the
commas are not escaped. For such options, the commas in file names need
to be escaped (to differentiate from a comma that delimit the list
items). The escaped comma is unescaped in `copy_option_part()` during
option parsing.
Fix as follows:
- Cmdline completion for option values with comma-separated file/folder
names will not start a new match when seeing `\\,` and will instead
consider it as one value.
- File/folder regex matching will strip the `\\` when seeing `\\,` to
make sure it can match the correct files/folders.
- The expanded value will escape `,` with `\\,`, similar to how spaces
are escaped to make sure the option value is correct on the cmdline.
This fix also takes into account the fact that Win32 Vim handles file
name escaping differently. Typing '\,' for a file name results in it
being handled literally but in other platforms '\,' is interpreted as a
simple ',' and commas need to be escaped using '\\,' instead.
Also, make sure this new logic only applies to comma-separated options
like 'path'. Non-list options like 'set makeprg=<Tab>' and regular ex
commands like `:edit <Tab>` do not require escaping and will continue to
work.
Also fix up documentation to be clearer. The original docs are slightly
misleading in how it discusses triple slashes for 'tags'.

Problem:
The swapfile "E325: ATTENTION" dialog is displayed when editing a file
already open in another (running) Nvim. Usually this behavior is
annoying and irrelevant:
- "Recover" and the other options ("Open readonly", "Quit", "Abort") are
almost never wanted.
- swapfiles are less relevant for "multi-Nvim" since 'autoread' is
enabled by default.
- Even less relevant if user enables 'autowrite'.
Solution:
Define a default SwapExists handler which does the following:
1. If the swapfile is owned by a running Nvim process, automatically
chooses "(E)dit anyway" (caveat: this creates a new, extra swapfile,
which is mostly harmless and ignored except by `:recover` or `nvim -r`.
2. Shows a 1-line "ignoring swapfile..." message.
3. Users can disable the default SwapExists handler via `autocmd! nvim_swapfile`.

The "f" flag was removed in f7da472257.
The value of the "f" flag is no longer listed in the 'shortmess'
description and it cannot be disabled, so having it in the default value
is pointless and confusing.
Not everything needs to be crazy overconfigurable.
Also fixes a warning in latest clang which didn't approve of
the funky math switch statement in append_arg_number
Previously, a screen cell would occupy 28+4=32 bytes per cell
as we always made space for up to MAX_MCO+1 codepoints in a cell.
As an example, even a pretty modest 50*80 screen would consume
50*80*2*32 = 256000, i e a quarter megabyte
With the factor of two due to the TUI side buffer, and even more when
using msg_grid and/or ext_multigrid.
This instead stores a 4-byte union of either:
- a valid UTF-8 sequence up to 4 bytes
- an escape char which is invalid UTF-8 (0xFF) plus a 24-bit index to a
glyph cache
This avoids allocating space for huge composed glyphs _upfront_, while
still keeping rendering such glyphs reasonably fast (1 hash table lookup
+ one plain index lookup). If the same large glyphs are using repeatedly
on the screen, this is still a net reduction of memory/cache
consumption. The only case which really gets worse is if you blast
the screen full with crazy emojis and zalgo text and even this case
only leads to 4 extra bytes per char.
When only <= 4-byte glyphs are used, plus the 4-byte attribute code,
i e 8 bytes in total there is a factor of four reduction of memory use.
Memory which will be quite hot in cache as the screen buffer is scanned
over in win_line() buffer text drawing
A slight complication is that the representation depends on host byte
order. I've tested this manually by compling and running this
in qemu-s390x and it works fine. We might add a qemu based solution
to CI at some point.
The removes the previous restriction that nvim_buf_set_extmark()
could not be used to highlight arbitrary multi-line regions
The problem can be summarized as follows: let's assume an extmark with a
hl_group is placed covering the region (5,0) to (50,0) Now, consider
what happens if nvim needs to redraw a window covering the lines 20-30.
It needs to be able to ask the marktree what extmarks cover this region,
even if they don't begin or end here.
Therefore the marktree needs to be augmented with the information covers
a point, not just what marks begin or end there. To do this, we augment
each node with a field "intersect" which is a set the ids of the
marks which overlap this node, but only if it is not part of the set of
any parent. This ensures the number of nodes that need to be explicitly
marked grows only logarithmically with the total number of explicitly
nodes (and thus the number of of overlapping marks).
Thus we can quickly iterate all marks which overlaps any query position
by looking up what leaf node contains that position. Then we only need
to consider all "start" marks within that leaf node, and the "intersect"
set of that node and all its parents.
Now, and the major source of complexity is that the tree restructuring
operations (to ensure that each node has T-1 <= size <= 2*T-1) also need
to update these sets. If a full inner node is split in two, one of the
new parents might start to completely overlap some ranges and its ids
will need to be moved from its children's sets to its own set.
Similarly, if two undersized nodes gets joined into one, it might no
longer completely overlap some ranges, and now the children which do
needs to have the have the ids in its set instead. And then there are
the pivots! Yes the pivot operations when a child gets moved from one
parent to another.
Problem:
* The guessed botline might be smaller than the actual botline e.g. when
there are folds and the user is typing in insert mode. This may result
in incorrect treesitter highlights for injections.
* botline can be larger than the last line number of the buffer, which
results in errors when placing extmarks.
Solution:
* Take a more conservative approximation. I am not sure if it is
sufficient to guarantee correctness, but it seems to be good enough
for the case mentioned above.
* Clamp it to the last line number.

These two functions seem to have previously had their docs start on the same
line as the signature, which I guess contributed to the lines being lost (though
I checked all other such functions from before again and these were the only
two).

Now that we "own" builtin.txt, we cant remove the repetitive mention of
Vimscript's UFCS syntax. It's noisy to mention this for each function,
and it's also not a Vimscript feature that should be encouraged.
Also change the builtin.txt heading to "NVIM REFERENCE MANUAL", which
indicates when a help file is Nvim-owned.
