Problem:
`vim.validate()` takes two forms when it only needs one.
Solution:
- Teach the fast form all the features of the spec form.
- Deprecate the spec form.
- General optimizations for both forms.
- Add a `message` argument which can be used alongside or in place
of the `optional` argument.
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).

**Problem:** Tree-sitter 0.24.0 introduced a new symbol type to denote
supertype nodes (`TSSymbolTypeSupertype`). Now, `language.inspect()`
(and the query `omnifunc`) return supertype symbols, but with double
quotes around them.
**Solution:** Mark a symbol as "named" based on it *not* being an
anonymous node, rather than checking that it is a regular node (which a
supertype also is not).
**Problems:**
- `vim.treesitter.language.inspect()` returns duplicate
symbol names, sometimes up to 6 of one kind in the case of `markdown`
- The list-like `symbols` table can have holes and is thus not even a
valid msgpack table anyway, mentioned in a test
**Solution:** Return symbols as a map, rather than a list, where field
names are the names of the symbol. The boolean value associated with the
field encodes whether or not the symbol is named.
Note that anonymous nodes are surrounded with double quotes (`"`) to
prevent potential collisions with named counterparts that have the same
identifier.
This commit also marks `child_containing_descendant()` as deprecated
(per upstream's documentation), and uses `child_with_descendant()` in
its place. Minimum required tree-sitter version will now be `0.24`.

Problem: Lua accessors for
- global, local, and special variables (`vim.{g,t,w,b,v}.*`), and
- options (`vim.{o,bo,wo,opt,opt_local,opt_global}.*`),
do not have command-line completion, unlike their vimscript counterparts
(e.g., `g:`, `b:`, `:set`, `:setlocal`, `:call <fn>`, etc.).
Completion for vimscript functions (`vim.fn.*`) is incomplete and does
not list all the available functions.
Solution: Implement completion for vimscript function, variable and
option accessors in `vim._expand_pat` through:
- `getcompletion()` for variable and vimscript function accessors, and
- `nvim_get_all_options_info()` for option accessors.
Note/Remark:
- Short names for options are yet to be implemented.
- Completions for accessors with handles (e.g. `vim.b[0]`, `vim.wo[0]`)
are also yet to be implemented, and are left as future work, which
involves some refactoring of options.
- For performance reasons, we may want to introduce caching for
completing options, but this is not considered at this time since the
number of the available options is not very big (only ~350) and Lua
completion for option accessors appears to be pretty fast.
- Can we have a more "general" framework for customizing completions?
In the future, we may want to improve the implementation by moving the
core logic for generating completion candidates to each accessor (or
its metatable) or through some central interface, rather than writing
all the accessor-specific completion implementations in a single
function: `vim._expand_pat`.
An implication of this current approach is that `NVIM_API_LEVEL` should be
bumped when a new Lua function is added.
TODO(future): add a lint check which requires `@since` on all new functions.
ref #25416
Some composite/compound types even as basic as `(string|number)[]` are

Problem: quickfix list does not handle hardlinks well
Solution: store original file name with quickfix entry
(Austin Chang)
Quickfix list shows entries with duplicate name if the file is opened
with the path of hard links.
The major cause is that qflist assumed that the filename passed into
`qf_add_entry` matches the filename opened with the buffer.
This patch handles this case by introduce a `qf_fname` into `qfline_S`
structure. It stores the filename from `qf_add_entry` for each quickfix
line.

Ensure the screen is fully updated before blocking for input. This did
not always happen before, for example when setting `cursorline
scrolloff=9999`, which lead to jerky movement when using some GUI
applications.
Because of the duality of redraw_later, this can't be done in
command-line or when waiting for "Press ENTER". In many of those cases
the redraw is expected AFTER the key press, while normally it should
update the screen immediately. So, those special cases are excluded.
Problem: fixed order of items in insert-mode completion menu

- `_watch.watch()` actively asserts any error returned by `handle:start()`.
- whereas `_watch.watchdirs()` just ignores the result of `root_handle:start()`.

Problem: When using nvim_paste in a mapping during a macro recording,
both the mapping and the paste are recorded, causing the paste
to be performed twice when replaying the macro.
Solution: Only record a paste when it is from RPC.
Unfortunately this means there is no way for a script to make a recorded
paste. A way to enable that can be discussed later if there is need.
Before this PR, the behavior of nvim_paste is:
- When vim.paste() returns false, return false to the client, but treat
following chunks normally (i.e. rely on the client cancelling the
paste as expected).
- When vim.paste() throws an error, still return true to the client, but
drain the following chunks in the stream without calling vim.paste().
There are two problems with such behavior:
- When vim.paste() errors, the client is still supposed to send the
remaining chunks of the stream, even though they do nothing.
- Having different code paths for two uncommon but similar situations
complicates maintenance.
This PR makes both the cancel case and the error case return false to
the client and drain the remaining chunks of the stream, which, apart
from sharing the same code path, is beneficial whether the client checks
the return value of nvim_paste or not:
- If the client checks the return value, it can avoid sending the
following chunks needlessly after an error.
- If the client doesn't check the return value, chunks following a
cancelled chunk won't be pasted on the server regardless, which leads
to less confusing behavior.
Problem:
`vim.fs.dirname([[C:\User\XXX\AppData\Local]])` returns "." on

b02eeb6a72.
In the api_info() output:

{'return_type': 'ArrayOf(Integer, 2)', 'name': 'nvim_win_get_position', 'method': v:true, 'parameters': [['Window', 'window']], 'since': 1}
The `ArrayOf(Integer, 2)` return type didn't break clients when we added
it, which is evidence that clients don't use the `return_type` field,
thus renaming Dictionary => Dict in api_info() is not a breaking change.

Problem: inconsistent case sensitive extension matching
Solution: unify case sensitive extension matching (Evgeni Chasnovski).
There are different approaches of how extensions are matched with
respect to case sensitivity. In particular, '\c' flag is used in pattern
whereas in most places case sensitive matching is guarded behind
`has("fname_case")` condition.
Replace all instances of '\c' with an explicit case sensitive pattern
variants guarded by `has("fname_case")`. Strictly speaking, this is a
breaking change because only two (most common and prevailingly tested)
variants are now matched: upper first letter and upper all letters.

Problem:
- "process" is often used as a verb (`multiqueue_process_events`), which
is ambiguous for cases where it's used as a topic.
- The documented naming convention for processes is "proc".
- `:help dev-name-common`
- Shorter is better, when it doesn't harm readability or
discoverability.
Solution:
Rename "process" => "proc" in all C symbols and module names.
This module is generally used by any tests that need the full Nvim TUI
instead of `screen.lua`. Thus it should live in `functional/` instead of
in `functional/terminal/`.

**Problem:** `vim.treesitter.get_parser` will throw an error if no parser
can be found.
- This means the caller is responsible for wrapping it in a `pcall`,
which is easy to forget
- It also makes it slightly harder to potentially memoize `get_parser`
in the future
- It's a bit unintuitive since many other `get_*` style functions
conventionally return `nil` if no object is found (e.g. `get_node`,
`get_lang`, `query.get`, etc.)
**Solution:** Return `nil` if no parser can be found or created
- This requires a function signature change, and some new assertions in
places where the parser will always (or should always) be found.
- This commit starts by making this change internally, since it is
breaking. Eventually it will be rolled out to the public API.

noticed until 96128a5076 started reporting the error more loudly.
Solution:
- `server_address_new`: replace slashes "/" in the appname before using
it as a servername.
- `vim_mktempdir`: always prefer the system-wide top-level "nvim.user/"
directory. That isn't intended to be specific to NVIM_APPNAME; rather,
each *subdirectory* ("nvim.user/xxx") is owned by each Nvim instance.
Nvim "apps" can be identified by the server socket(s) stored in those
per-Nvim subdirs.
fix#30256
Problem: vim.tbl_deep_extend had an undocumented feature where arrays
(integer-indexed tables) were not merged but compared literally (used
for merging default and user config, where one list should overwrite the
other completely). Turns out this behavior was relied on in quite a
number of plugins (even though it wasn't a robust solution even for that
use case, since lists of tables (e.g., plugin specs) can be array-like
as well).
Solution: Revert the removal of this special feature. Check for
list-like (contiguous integer indices) instead, as this is closer to the
intent. Document this behavior.
Problem:
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR may be broken on WSL, which prevents starting (and even
building) Nvim. #30282
Solution:
- When startup fails, mention the servername in the error message.
- If an autogenerated server address fails, log an error and continue
with an empty `v:servername`. It's only fatal if a user provides a bad
`--listen` or `$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS` address.
Before:
$ nvim --headless --listen ./hello.sock
nvim: Failed to --listen: "address already in use"
$ NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS='./hello.sock' ./build/bin/nvim --headless
nvim: Failed to --listen: "address already in use"
After:
$ nvim --headless --listen ./hello.sock
nvim: Failed to --listen: address already in use: "./hello.sock"
$ NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS='./hello.sock' ./build/bin/nvim --headless
nvim: Failed $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS: address already in use: "./hello.sock"
Problem:
str_byteindex_enc could return an error if the index was longer than the
lline length. This was handled in each of the calls to it individually
Solution:
* Fix the call at the source level so that if the index is higher than
the line length, line length is returned as per LSP specification
* Remove pcalls on str_byteindex_enc calls. No longer needed now that
str_byteindex_enc has a bounds check.
Font-family names must be enclosed in quotation marks to ensure that
fonts are applied correctly when there are spaces in the name.
Fix an issue where multiple fonts specified in `vim.o.guifont` are
inserted as a single element, treating them as a single font.
Support for escaping commas with backslash and ignoring spaces
after a comma.

Problem: Wrong breakindentopt=list:-1 with multibyte chars or TABs in
text matched by 'formatlistpat' (John M Devin)
Solution: Use the width of the match text (zeertzjq)

Problem: Resetting cell widths can make 'listchars' or 'fillchars'
invalid.
Solution: Check for conflicts when resetting cell widths (zeertzjq).
