Up to now g:clipboard["copy"] only supported string values invoked as
system commands.
This commit enables the use of VimL functions instead. The function
signatures are the same as in provider/clipboard.vim. A clipboard
provider is expected to store and return a list of lines (i.e. the text)
and a register type (as seen in setreg()).
cache_enabled is ignored if "copy" is provided by a VimL function.
Problem: Expression evaluation may repeat an error message. (Jason
Franklin)
Solution: Increment did_emsg and check for the value when giving an error
for the echo command.

If stdin closed then read_error_exit calls preserve_exit. Handling
SIGHUP during preserve_exit would cause a premature teardown, and
conflicts with e.g. ui_bridge_stop which waits for TUI to teardown.
Vim ignores SIGHUP in its prepare_to_exit and getout_preserve_modified
routines:
/* Ignore SIGHUP, because a dropped connection causes a read error, which
* makes Vim exit and then handling SIGHUP causes various reentrance
* problems. */
signal(SIGHUP, SIG_IGN);
Namespaces is a lightweight concept that should be used to group
objects for purposes of bulk operations and introspection. This is
initially used for highlights and virtual text in buffers, and is
planned to also be used for extended marks. There is no plan use them
for privileges or isolation, neither to introduce nanespace-level
options.
By historical accident, Nvim defaults to background=light. So on a dark
background, `:colorscheme default` looks completely wrong.
The "smart" logic that Vim uses is confusing for anyone who uses Vim on
multiple platforms, so rather than mimic that, pick the (hopefully) most
common default.
- Since Neovim is dark-powered, we assume most users have dark backgrounds.
- Most of the GUIs tend to have a dark background by default.

- window_split_tab_spec.lua: Put cursor at bottom of :terminal buffer so
that it follows output.
- inccommand_spec.lua: Increase timeout to allow 2nd retry.
- Timer tests are less reliable on Travis CI macOS 10.12/10.13.

* os/fs.c: add os_isdir_executable()
* eval.c: fix hang on job start caused by non-executable cwd option
* channel.c: assert cwd is an executable directory
* test: jobstart() produces error when using non-executable cwd
Test is unreliable on macOS 10.13. The lower-bound isn't central to the
purpose of the test, so just relax it.

Avoid clearing the screen in most situations. NOT_VALID should be
equivalent to CLEAR unless some external force messed up the terminal,
for these situations <c-l> and :mode will still clear the screen.
Also eliminate some obsolete code in screen.c, that dealt with that in
vim drawing window 1 can mess up window 2, but this never happens in
nvim.
But what about slow terminals? There is two common meanings in which
a terminal is said to be "slow":
Most commonly (and in the sense of vim:s nottyfast) it means low
bandwidth for sending bytes from nvim to the terminal. If the screen is
very similar before and after the update_screen(CLEAR) this change
should reduce bandwidth. If the screen is quite different, but there is
no new regions of contiguous whitespace, clearing doesn't reduce
bandwidth significantly. If the new screen contains a lot of whitespace,
it will depend of if vsplits are used or not: as long as there is no
vsplits, ce is used to cheaply clear the rest of the line, so
full-screen clear is not needed to reduce bandwith. However a left
vsplit currently needs to be padded with whitespace all the way to the
separator. It is possible ec (clear N chars) can be used to reduce
bandwidth here if this is a problem. (All of this assumes that one
doesn't set Normal guibg=... on a non-BCE terminal, if you do you are
doomed regardless of this change).
Slow can also mean that drawing pixels on the screen is slow. E-ink
screens is a recent example. Avoiding clearing and redrawing the
unchanged part of the screen will always improve performance in these
cases.
