Asynchronous API functions are served immediately, which means pending
input could change the state of Nvim shortly after an async API function
result is returned.
nvim_get_mode() is different:
- If RPCs are known to be blocked, it responds immediately (without
flushing the input/event queue)
- else it is handled just-in-time before waiting for input, after
pending input was processed. This makes the result more reliable
(but not perfect).
Internally this is handled as a special case, but _semantically_ nothing
has changed: API users never know when input flushes, so this internal
special-case doesn't violate that. As far as API users are concerned,
nvim_get_mode() is just another asynchronous API function.
In all cases nvim_get_mode() never blocks for more than the time it
takes to flush the input/event queue (~µs).
Note: This doesn't address #6166; nvim_get_mode() will provoke #6166 if
e.g. `d` is operator-pending.
Closes#6159
- Eliminate/isolate static/global variables
- Remove special-case parameter from buflist_new()
- Remove special-case ECMD_RESERVED_BUFNR
- To determine when u_undo_and_forget() should be done, check
b_changedtick instead of a heuristic.
- use mb_string2cells() instead of strlen() to measure the :sub patterns
- call ml_close() before buf_clear_file(). Avoids leaks caught by ASan.

Adds support for:
- api:vim_input("<D-a>")
- ":nnoremap <C-D-S-...>" and permutations thereof
UIs must capture the modifier and send it as "<D-...>" to vim_input().
Note: Before this commit, any arbitrary ":nnoremap <{foo}-{bar}>"
mapping could already be invoked with feedkeys("\<{foo}-{bar}>"). This
commit supports "D-" as a modifier that can be combined with "C-", "A-",
"S-" in any order.
For non-GUI (terminal) support, user must:
:set <D-a>={CSI sequence}
then send the {CSI sequence} from their terminal. But this does not work
yet (regression #2204).
Closes#2190
- CPO_ALL and CPO_VI are identical, so merge them
- No longer check for the environment variable 'VIM_POSIX'
- In vim_diff.txt, mention the removal of 'cpoptions' flags
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.

Notes regarding the removal of specific items:
- Aztec C: only on the Amiga.
- mch_check_win(): doesn't exist anymore.
- Comment in ex_cmds.c: It seems the context for this comment was
removed, but the comment was inadvertantly left alone.
