Options formatted as a list of comma-separated key-value pairs may have
values that contain leading and trailing whitespace characters. For
example, the `listchars` option has a default value of
`"tab:> ,trail:-,nbsp:+"`. When converting this value to a lua table,
leading and trailing whitespace should not be trimmed.

This release represents ~4000 commits since v0.4.4, the previous
non-maintenance release. Highlights include builtin support for LSP, new APIs
for extended marks (with byte resolution tracking of changes) and buffer
decorations, as well as vast improvements to lua as a plugin and configuration
language. Experimental support for tree-sitter as a syntax engine is also
included, building on the new core APIs for byte tracking and decorations.

Closes#13713
Problem: The wininfo list may contain stale entries.
Solution: When closing a window remove any other entry where the window
pointer is NULL.
4882d98339
This closes#14677, but I also am a little unsure if there are times
where this may not be correct. However, this just changes the behavior
that even if `was_set` was false, we still get for
`nvim_win_get_option`.
* Add buffer information to tabline_update
Most terminal implementations of the tabline display buffer and tab
information. Many neovim-qt users disable GuiTabline because it lacks
functionality provided in the terminal implementation.
The tabline_update event should include buffer information too, so client GUIs
can display rich useful tabs.
It's happening because do_source is only expected to return FAIL when it
was unable to open file . But `nlua_exec_file` returns fail for parsing
and execution error too . Those errors are emitted through `nlua_error`.
So now return value of nlua_exec_file is ignored like do_cmdline. It now
only returns fail when it was unable to open file that check is done
before calling nlua_exec_file or do_cmdline. Errors in nlua_exec_file
are still directly emitted through nlua_error like before.
Problem: Spell suggestions insufficiently tested.
Solution: Add spell suggestion tests. (Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#5398)
