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).

'v:none' is already used to mean "use the default argument value" in
user defined functions. See |none-function_argument| in help.

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: no max callback recursion limit
Solution: bail out, if max call recursion for callback functions
has been reached.
This checks the 'maxfuncdepth' setting and throws E169 when a callback
function recursively calls itself.

runtime(doc): Improve command-line completion docs (vim/vim#13331)
* Improve command-line completion docs
Add more details about 'ignorecase' and its effect on cmdline
completion.
Make sure keys used in wildmenu are properly documented and linked in the
keys' documentation entries, and in `:h index` for proper
cross-referencing, as wildmenu popup is slightly different from
insert-mode popup menu.
* Fix docs typos

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`.

A lot of updated places in the docs were already incorrect since long
since they did not reflect the default behaviour.
"[dos format]" could've been argued being better for discoverability
but that ship has already sailed as it is no longer displayed by default.

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.
