patch 8.0.0280: problem setting multi-byte environment var on MS-Windows
Problem: On MS-Windows setting an environment variable with multi-byte
strings does not work well.
Solution: Use wputenv when possible. (Taro Muraoka, Ken Takata)

This allows executables to be found by :!, system(), and executable() if
they live next to ("sibling" to) nvim.exe. This is what gvim on Windows
does, and also matches the behavior of Win32 SearchPath().

When test/functional/eval/system_spec.lua is run on its own,
helpers.os_name() was being called before a session had been created.
This caused that describe block to fail.
Turning printargs_path into a function delays the call of
helpers.os_name() until the test is being run, which ensures a session
is available.
Test sometimes fails on AppVeyor (Windows). 300/50=6, but there could be
environment factors that miss the timer interval on the "edges".
timer_start() does not have such a hard requirement.
Also make setpos("'A", [999, 1, 1, 0]) fail, i.e. return -1 (assuming there is no buffer 999).
Fixes#5713
Background:
`:help setpos()` mentions an argument `"bufnum"` that determines the buffer a mark should be put in.
This argument is respected for uppercase marks, but not for lowercase marks.
This is reasonable (though I personally would like `setpos()` to be able to set marks in other buffers), but the help doesn't mention this anywhere.
It's also strange that attempting to change buffers with `setpos('.', [bufnr('#'), 1, 1, 0])` alerts the user that having a different buffer is an error, while attempting to set a mark with `setpos("'d", [bufnr('#'), 1, 1, 0])` doesn't tell the user that the `"bufnum"` argument is an error.
Do _not_ set v:shell_error on parameter validation error.
system([...]) does not invoke a shell, so this change is somewhat
questionable. But `:help v:shell_error` is sufficiently vague to allow
-1 in this case.
Also fixed dumping of partials by encode_vim_to_object and added code which is
able to work with partials and dictionaries to test/unit/eval/helpers.lua
(mostly copied from #5119, except for partials handling).
Occurs when trying to dump a partial with attached self dictionary which
references that partial. “Infinite” loop should normally result in Neovim killed
by OOM killer.
Also moved the place when partials are unreferenced by clear_tv: from
…FUNC_START to …FUNC_END.
Periodically skip :! spam. This is a "cheat" that works for all UIs and greatly
improves responsiveness when :! spams MB or GB of output:
:!yes
:!while true; do date; done
:!git grep ''
:grep -r '' *
After ~10KB of data is seen from a single :! invocation, output will be skipped
for ~1s and three dots "..." will pulse in the bottom-left. Thereafter the
behavior alternates at every:
* 10KB received
* ~1s throttled
This also avoids out-of-memory which could happen with large :! outputs.
Note: This commit does not change the behavior of execute(':!foo').
execute(':!foo') returns the string ':!foo^M', it captures *only* Vim
messages, *not* shell command output. Vim behaves the same way.
Use system('foo') for capturing shell command output.
Closes#1234

In order to not conflict with new error codes that Vim adds, all Neovim
error codes should be above 5000. The three existing sub-5000 error
codes (E926, E951, and E952) are now E50003, E5004, and E5005
respectively.
E953 was removed in 6167ce6df2, so just
remove it from the help.
API level is disconnected from NVIM version. The API metadata holds the
current API level, and the lowest backwards-compatible level supported
by this instance.
Release 0.1.6 is the first release that reports the Nvim version and API
level.
metadata['version'] = {
major: 0,
minor: 1,
patch: 6,
api_level: 1,
api_compatible: 0,
api_prerelease: false,
}
The API level may remain unchanged across Nvim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API,
- set NVIM_API_PRERELEASE to true
- increment NVIM_API_LEVEL (at most once per Nvim version)
- adjust NVIM_API_LEVEL_COMPAT if backwards-compatibility was broken
api_level_0.mpack was generated from Nvim 0.1.5 with:
nvim --api-info

When changing the API the CMake variable NVIM_API_PRERELEASE is set to
true, and NVIM_API_CURRENT/NVIM_API_COMPATIBILITY are incremented
accordingly.
The functional tests check the API table against fixtures of past
versions of Neovim. It compares all the functions in the old table with
the new one, it does ignore some metadata attributes that do not alter
the function signature or were removed since 0.1.5. Currently the only
fixture is 0.mpack, generated from Neovim 0.1.5 with nvim --api-info.
Closes#5449
A file containing the string "vim" followed by a very large number in a modeline
location will trigger an overflow in getdigits() which is called by
chk_modeline() when trying to parse the version number.
Add getdigits_safe(), which does not assert overflows, but reports them to the
caller.

In Vim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
works because for both system() and :! Vim writes input to a temp file and uses
shell syntax to redirect the file to the backgrounded `cat` (get_cmd_output()
.. make_filter_cmd()).
In Nvim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
fails because we write the input directly via pipes (shell.c:do_os_system()),
but (per POSIX[1]) backgrounded process input stream is redirected from
/dev/null (unless overridden by shell redirection; supported only by some shells
[2]), so our writes are ignored, the process exits quickly, and if we are
writing data larger than the buffer size we'll see EPIPE.
This still works:
:%w !tee > foo1358.txt &
but this does not:
:%w !tee foo1358.txt &
though it *should* (why doesn't it?) because we still do the temp file dance
in do_bang() .. do_filter().

The previous form was passing because it happens immediately before this form;
but on a very fast(?) server the screen check might miss that form. It's also
not really want we want to assert anyways.
this is consistent with vim, and is necessary for plugins that implement
their own input modes using "getchar()" and still want to do async
event processing.
It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
