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.

runtime(dosbatch): improve '::' comment highlighting
Added a syntax region for command blocks so that the highlighting of
`::` comments in them can be controlled. The `dosbatch_colons_comment`
variable now controls if all `::` comments in a code block are
highlighted as comments or errors. A `::` comment at the end of a
command block is always highlighted as an error.
This re-enables the highlighting of `::` comments in `.bat` files as
requested in vim/vim#13666, while allowing control of highlighting them in
command blocks requested in vim/vim#11778 and first attempted in vim/vim#11980.

Problem:
- `:InspectTree` was showing node ranges in 1-based indexing, i.e., in
vim cursor position (lnum, col). However, treesitter API adopts
0-based indexing to represent ranges (Range4). This can often be
confusing for developers and plugin authors when debugging code
written with treesiter APIs.
Solution:
- Change to 0-based indexing from 1-based indexing to show node ranges
in `:InspectTree`.
- Note: To make things not complicated, we do not provide an option or
keymap to configure which indexing mode to use.
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,
it can be frustrating having to remember different key combinations or

Problem: Currently default color scheme defines most of treesitter
highlight groups. This might be an issue for users defining their own
color scheme as it breaks the "fallback property" for some of groups.
Solution: Define less default treesitter groups; just enough for default
color scheme to be useful. That is:
- All first level groups (`@character`, `@string`, etc.).
- All `@xxx.builtin` groups as a most common subgroup.
- Some special cases (links/URLs, `@diff.xxx`, etc.).
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.

Docs for treesitter would benefit from including more real-world and
practical examples of queries and usages, rather than hypothetical ones
(e.g. names such as "foo", "bar"). Improved examples should be more
user-friendly and clear to understand.
In addition, align the capture names in some examples with the actual
ones being used in the built-in query files or in the nvim-treesitter
plugin, e.g.:
- `@parameter` -> `@variable.parameter`
- `@comment.doc.java` -> `@comment.documentation.java`
- etc.

perf: make screen size and position calculations more efficient
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:9.1.0037: Calling get_breakindent_win() repeatedly when computing virtcol
vim-patch:9.1.0038: Unnecessary loop in getvcol()
When computing on-screen size or position, the size 'breakindent' and 'showbreak' is now cached,
and checks for whether a faster character size function can be used are performed only once at the start.
Multibyte characters are not decodes multiple times anymore, and character decoding functions are more efficient.
Additionally, the amount of trailing spaces for pasted blockwise text is now calculated correctly for multibyte characters.
Internal lisp formatting now doesn't erroneously use inline virtual text from a different line.
- Problem: One cannot easily write something like, for example:
`version_current >= {0, 10, 0}`; writing like
`not vim.version.lt(version_current, {0, 10, 0})` is verbose.
- Solution: add {`le`,`ge`} in addition to {`lt`,`gt`}.
- Also improve typing on the operator methods: allow `string` as well.
- Update the example in `vim.version.range()` docs: `ge` in place of
`gt` better matches the semantics of `range:has`.
Problem: Sharing queries with upstream and Helix is difficult due to
different capture names.
Solution: Define and document a new set of standard captures that
matches tree-sitter "standard captures" (where defined) and is closer to
Helix' Atom-style nested groups.
This is a breaking change for colorschemes that defined highlights based
on the old captures. On the other hand, the default colorscheme now
defines links for all standard captures (not just those used in bundled
queries), improving the out-of-the-box experience.
When an embedded Nvim instance changes its current directory a "chdir"
UI event is emitted. Attached UIs can use this information however they
wish. In the TUI it is used to synchronize the cwd of the TUI process
with the cwd of the embedded Nvim process.
Problem: too vague errors for 'listchars'/'fillchars'
Solution: Include the field name in error message.

- Luaify the detection script:
- Split the `(*!m2foo*)` and `(*!m2foo+bar*)` detection into two Lua patterns,
as Lua capture groups cannot be used with `?` and friends (as they only work
on character classes).
- Use `vim.api.nvim_buf_call()` (ew) to call `modula2#SetDialect()` to ensure
`b:modula2` is set for the given bufnr.
- Skip the syntax screendump tests. (A shame as they test some of the detection
from `(*!m2foo+bar*)` tags, but I tested this locally and it seems to work)
- Port the synmenu.vim changes from Vim9 script. (Also tested this locally)
- (And also add the missing comma for `b:browsefilter` from earlier.)

The motivation for this update is Issue #15365, where background=light
is not properly set for Nvim running from an Nvim :terminal. This can be
encountered when e.g., opening a terminal to make git commits, which
opens EDITOR=nvim in the nested terminal.
Under the implementation of this commit, the OSC response always
indicates a black or white foreground/background. While this may not
reflect the actual foreground/background color, it permits 'background'
to be retained for a nested Nvim instance running in the terminal
emulator. The behaviour matches Vim.
runtime(ftplugin): Use "*" browsefilter pattern to match "All Files"
Problem: The "*.*" browsefilter pattern only matches all files on
Windows (Daryl Lee)
Solution: Use "*" to filter on all platforms but keep "*.*" as the label
text on Windows. (Fixesvim/vim#12685, Doug Kearns)
The *.* browsefilter pattern used to match "All Files" on Windows is a
legacy of the DOS 8.3 filename wildcard matching algorithm. For reasons
of backward compatibility this still works on Windows to match all
files, even those without an extension.
However, this pattern only matches filenames containing a dot on other
platforms. This often makes files without an extension difficult to
access from the file dialog, e.g., "Makefile"
On Windows it is still standard practice to use "*.*" for the filter
label so ftplugins should use "All Files (*.*)" on Windows and "All
Files (*)" on other platforms. This matches Vim's default browsefilter
values.
This commit also normalises the browsefilter conditional test to check
for the Win32 and GTK GUI features and an unset b:browsefilter.
