Options formatted as a list of comma-separated key-value pairs may have
values that contain leading and trailing whitespace characters. For
example, the `listchars` option has a default value of
`"tab:> ,trail:-,nbsp:+"`. When converting this value to a lua table,
leading and trailing whitespace should not be trimmed.

This release represents ~4000 commits since v0.4.4, the previous
non-maintenance release. Highlights include builtin support for LSP, new APIs
for extended marks (with byte resolution tracking of changes) and buffer
decorations, as well as vast improvements to lua as a plugin and configuration
language. Experimental support for tree-sitter as a syntax engine is also
included, building on the new core APIs for byte tracking and decorations.

Closes#13713
Problem: The wininfo list may contain stale entries.
Solution: When closing a window remove any other entry where the window
pointer is NULL.
4882d98339
This closes#14677, but I also am a little unsure if there are times
where this may not be correct. However, this just changes the behavior
that even if `was_set` was false, we still get for
`nvim_win_get_option`.
* Add buffer information to tabline_update
Most terminal implementations of the tabline display buffer and tab
information. Many neovim-qt users disable GuiTabline because it lacks
functionality provided in the terminal implementation.
The tabline_update event should include buffer information too, so client GUIs
can display rich useful tabs.
As per #14236, performing extmark cleanup in a certain namespace does
not guarantee removing all the extmarks inside given namespace.
The issue resides within the tree node removal method and results in
a couple of rare edge cases.
To demonstrate what causes this bug, I'll give an example covering one
of the edge cases.

DIAGRAM EXPLANATION
* Every column is a state of the marktree at a certain stage.
* To make it simple, I don't draw the whole tree. What you see are
2 leftmost parent nodes ([0, 10], [0, 20]) and their children placed
in order `MarkTreeIter` would iterate through. From top to bottom.
* Numbers on this diagram represent extmark coordinates. Relative
positioning and actual mark IDs used by the marktree are avoided
for simplicity.
* 2 types of brackets around coordinates represent 2 different
extmark namespaces (`ns_id`s).
* '*' shows iterator position.
ACTUAL EXPLANATION
Let's assume, we have two sets of extmarks from 2 different plugins:
* Plugin1: <0, 1-9>
* Plugin2: [0, 10-20]
1. Plugin2 calls
`vim.api.nvim_buf_clear_namespace(buf_handle, ns_id, 0, -1)`
to clear all its extmarks which results in `extmark_clear` call.
2. The iteration process goes on ignoring extmarks with irrelevant
`ns_id` from Plugin1, until it reaches [0, 10], entering state (A).
3. At the end of cleaning up process, `marktree_del_itr` gets called.
This function is supposed to remove given node and, if necessary,
restructure the tree. Also, move the iterator to the next node.
The bug occurs in this function.
4. The iterator goes backwards to the node's last child, to put it
in the place of its deleted parent later. (B)
5. The parent node is deleted and replaced with its child node. (C)
6. Since now this node has 8 children, which is less than
`MT_BRANCH_FACTOR - 1`, it get's merged with the next node. (D)
7. Finally, since at (B) the iterator went backward, it goes forward
twice, skipping [0, 11] node, causing this extmark to persist,
causing the bug. (E)
ANALYSIS AND SOLUTION
The algorithm works perfectly when the parent node gets replaced by
its child, but no merging occurs. I.e. the exact same diagram,
but without the (D) stage. If not for (D), it would iterate to <0, 9>
and then to [0, 11]. So, iterating twice makes sense. The actual problem
is in (C) stage, because the iterator index isn't adjusted and still
pointing to no longer existent node. So my solution is to adjust
iterator index after removing the child node.

It's happening because do_source is only expected to return FAIL when it
was unable to open file . But `nlua_exec_file` returns fail for parsing
and execution error too . Those errors are emitted through `nlua_error`.
So now return value of nlua_exec_file is ignored like do_cmdline. It now
only returns fail when it was unable to open file that check is done
before calling nlua_exec_file or do_cmdline. Errors in nlua_exec_file
are still directly emitted through nlua_error like before.
