Problem:
There are three different ways of marking an option as hidden, `enable_if
= false`, `hidden = true` and `immutable = true`. These also have different
behaviors. Options hidden with `enable_if = false` can't have their value
fetched using Vim script or the API, but options hidden with `hidden = true` or
`immutable = true` can. On the other hand, options with `hidden = true` do not
error when trying to set their value, but options with `immutable = true` do.
Solution:
Remove `enable_if = false`, remove the `hidden` property for options, and use
`immutable = true` to mark an option as hidden instead. Also make hidden option
variable pointers always point to the default value, which allows fetching the
value of every hidden option using Vim script and the API. This does also mean
that trying to set a hidden option will now give an error instead of just being
ignored.
Problem: 'findexpr' can't be used for lambads
(Justin Keyes)

`-NonInteractive` at least somewhat hints to pwsh/powershell, that shell
sessions created from :! are not interactive, though even that is not
foolproof, because powershell is weird.
`$PSStyle.OutputRendering='plaintext'` causes pwsh/powershell
to omit ANSI escape sequences in its output.
Problem: 'findexpr' completion doesn't set v:fname to cmdline argument.
Solution: Set v:fname to the cmdline argument as-is (zeertzjq).

Problem: We use `void *` for option default values, which is confusing and can cause problems with type-correctness. It also doesn't accomodate for multitype options. On top of that, it also leads to default boolean option values not behaving correctly on big endian systems.
Solution: Use `OptVal` for option default values.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `:set {option}<` removes the local value for all global-local options instead of just string global-local options.
- `:setlocal {option}<` copies the global value to the local value for number and boolean global-local options instead of removing the local value.
Problem:
Hidden options are documented despite being no-ops.
Solution:
Remove docs for hidden options.
Move tags for options that we plan to restore, to ":help nvim-missing".
Move tags for permanently removed options, to ":help nvim-removed".
Problem: testing of options can be further improved
Solution: split the generated option test into test_options_all.vim,
add more test cases, save and restore values, fix use-after-free

vim-patch:8.2.4744: a terminal window can't use the bell
vim-patch:8.2.4745: using wrong flag for using bell in the terminal
BREAKING CHANGE: Bells from :terminal are now silent by default, unless
'belloff' option doesn't contain "term" or "all".
This commit makaes the following changes to the vim help syntax:
- fix excessive URL detection in help, because `file:{filename}` in
doc/options.txt is determined to be a URL.
- update highlighting N for :resize in help
- split Italian-specific syntax into separate help script
- highlight `Note` in parentheses in help
- update 'titlestring' behaviour in documentation for invalid '%' format

Problem: 'cedit', 'termwinkey' and 'wildchar' may not be parsed
correctly
Solution: improve string_to_key() function in option.c

- Problem: `^@` raises an error.
Solution: Store as `<Nul>`.
- Problem: `<t_xx` does not raise an error.
Solution: Raise an error if closing `>` is missing.
- Problem: Single `<` or `^` raises an error. It is inconvenient for users.
Solution: They are stored as a single character.

Problem: fixed order of items in insert-mode completion menu
Solution: Introduce the 'completeitemalign' option with default
value "abbr,kind,menu" (glepnir).
Adding an new option `completeitemalign` abbr is `cia` to custom
the complete-item order in popupmenu.

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)

Use the grapheme break algorithm from utf8proc to support grapheme
clusters from recent unicode versions.
Handle variant selector VS16 turning some codepoints into double-width
emoji. This means we need to use ptr2cells rather than char2cells when
possible.
Problem: Contents of terminal buffer are not reflown when Nvim is
resized.
Solution: Enable reflow in libvterm by default. Now that libvterm is
vendored, also fix "TUI rapid resize" test failures there.
Note: Neovim's scrollback buffer does not support reflow (yet), so lines
vanishing into the buffer due to a too small window will be restored
without reflow.
Problem: Calling a function from an "expr" option has too much overhead.
Solution: Add call_simple_func() and use it for 'foldexpr'

Cherry-pick a call_func() change from patch 8.2.1343.
Add expr-option-function docs to options.txt.

Problem: signed number detection for CTRL-X/A can be improved
(Chris Patuzzo)
Solution: Add the new "blank" value for the 'nrformat' setting. This
will make Vim assume a signed number only if there is a blank
in front of the sign.

Problem: A custom 'statuscolumn' needs to check a bunch of options and
placed signs to replicate the default number column.
Solution: Rework %l item to include the necessary logic to mimic the
default number column. Remove now redundant %r item.
Problem: Cannot have buffer-local value for 'completeopt'
(Nick Jensen).
Solution: Make 'completeopt' global-local (zeertzjq).
Also for some reason test Test_ColonEight_MultiByte seems to be failing
sporadically now. Let's mark it as flaky.

Based on feedback from #28324, pass -H and -I to regular grep
(available on all platforms officially supported by Neovim), and
only pass -uu to ripgrep. This makes :grep ignore binary files by
default in both cases.
