Problem: winframe functions incorrectly recompute window positions if
the altframe wasn't adjacent to the closed frame, which is
possible if adjacent windows had 'winfix{width,height}' set.
Solution: recompute for windows within the parent of the altframe and
closed frame. Skip this (as before) if the altframe was
top/left, but only if adjacent to the closed frame, as
positions won't change in that case. Also correct the return
value documentation for win_screenpos. (Sean Dewar)
The issue revealed itself after removing the win_comp_pos call below
winframe_restore in win_splitmove. Similarly, wrong positions could result from
windows closed in other tabpages, as win_free_mem uses winframe_remove (at least
until it is entered later, where enter_tabpage calls win_comp_pos).
NOTE: As win_comp_pos handles only curtab, it's possible via other means for
positions in non-current tabpages to be wrong (e.g: after changing 'laststatus',
'showtabline', etc.). Given enter_tabpage recomputes it, maybe it's intentional
as an optimization? Should probably be documented in win_screenpos then, but I
won't address that here.
closes: vim/vim#14191
Nvim: don't reuse "wp" for "topleft" in winframe_remove, so the change
integrates better with the call to winframe_find_altwin before it.

Problem: more places exist where curwin == prevwin, and it may even be
expected in some cases.
Solution: revert v9.1.0001, but document that it's possible instead.
(Sean Dewar)
I've had a change of heart for the following reasons:
- A quick 'n dirty [GitHub code search](https://github.com/search?q=%2F%28winnr%5C%28%5C%29%5Cs*%3D%3D%5Cs*winnr%5C%28%5B%27%22%5D%23%5B%27%22%5D%5C%29%7Cwinnr%5C%28%5B%27%22%5D%23%5B%27%22%5D%5C%29%5Cs*%3D%3D%5Cs*winnr%5C%28%5C%29%29%2F&type=code)
reveals some cases where it's expected in the wild.
Particularly, it made me aware `winnr() == winnr('#')` is possible when curwin
is changed temporarily during the evaluation of a &statusline expression item
(`%{...}`), and is used to show something different on the statusline
belonging to the previous window; that behaviour wasn't changed in v9.1.0001,
but it means curwin == prevwin makes sense in some cases.
- The definition and call sites of back_to_prevwin imply some expectation that
prevwin == wp (== curwin) is possible, as it's used to skip entering the
prevwin in that case.
- Prior to v9.1.0001, `:wincmd p` would not beep in the case that was patched in
v9.1.0001, but now does. That resulted in vim/vim#14047 being opened, as it affected
the CtrlP plugin.
I find it odd that `:wincmd p` had cases where it wouldn't beep despite doing
nothing, but it may be preferable to keep things that way (or instead also
beep if curwin == prevwin, if that's preferred).
- After more digging, I found cases in win_free_mem, enter_tabpage,
aucmd_restbuf and qf_open_new_cwindow where curwin == prevwin is possible
(many of them from autocommands). Others probably exist too, especially in
places where curwin is changed temporarily.

Problem: win_splitmove fires WinNewPre and possibly WinNew when moving
windows, even though no new windows are created.

accuracy of related documentation. (Sean Dewar)

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: 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)

Problem: Cannot map Super Keys in GTK UI

Solution: Enable Super Key mappings in GTK using <D-Key>

As a developer who works in both Mac and Linux using the same keyboard,

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:
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`.

Problem: luals returns stricter diagnostics with bundled luarc.json
Solution: Improve some function and type annotations:
* use recognized uv.* types
* disable diagnostic for global `vim` in shared.lua
* docs: don't start comment lines with taglink (otherwise LuaLS will interpret it as a type)
* add type alias for lpeg pattern
* fix return annotation for `vim.secure.trust`
* rename local Range object in vim.version (shadows `Range` in vim.treesitter)
* fix some "missing fields" warnings
* add missing required fields for test functions in eval.lua
* rename lsp meta files for consistency
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).

- generate runtime/lua/vim/_meta/options.lua
* fixup! zeer comments

* fixup! re-enable luacheck
* fixup! regen
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.
- eval.lua is now the source of truth.
- Formatting is much more consistent.
- Fixed Lua type generation for polymorphic functions (get(), etc).
- Removed "Overview" section from builtin.txt
- Can generate this if we really want it.
- Moved functions from sign.txt and testing.txt into builtin.txt.

Prepare for https://github.com/neovim/tree-sitter-vimdoc/pull/108 which improves
`{arg}` highlighting in many common cases:
vim.foo({bar})
vim.foo( {bar})
nvim_foo({bar})
nvim_foo({bar},{baz})
nvim_foo({bar}, {baz})
foo[{buf}]
The tradeoff is that things like `"[{"` are flagged as parse errors.
We could avoid if we drop support for `foo[{buf}]`, but that is rather common
(see `builtin.txt`).
Enforce consistent terminology (defined in
`gen_help_html.lua:spell_dict`) for common misspellings.
This does not spellcheck English in general (perhaps a future TODO,
though it may be noisy).
