Problem: Get ml_get error when deleting a line in 'completefunc'. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan)
Solution: Lock the text while evaluating 'completefunc'.

Fix a mistake in the porting of patch 8.1.0098.
Cherry-pick Test_run_excmd_with_text_locked() from patch 8.2.0270.
Cherry-pick test_gf.vim changes from patch 8.2.0369.
Cherry-pick message change from later patches.
Problem:
- Since c57f6b28d7#8519, sockets are created in ~/.local/… but XDG
spec says: "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR: Must be on the local filesystem", which
implies that XDG_STATE_DIR is potentially non-local.
- Not easy to inspect Nvim-created temp files (for debugging etc).
Solution:
- Store sockets in stdpath('run') ($XDG_RUNTIME_DIR).
- Establish "/tmp/nvim.user/" as the tempdir root shared by all Nvims.
- Make ok() actually useful.
- Introduce assert_nolog().

Problem:
Nvim fails to create tempfile "…/nvim6UJx04/7" when 'shell' is set to
pwsh (PowerShell Core). This breaks filtered shell commands ":{range}!".
With shell set to cmd, it works.
Solution:
PowerShell doesn't use "<" for stdin redirection. Instead, use
"-RedirectStandardInput".
Closes#15913
Problem:
- Unix sockets are created in random /tmp dirs.
- /tmp is messy, unclear when OSes actually clear it.
- The generated paths are very ugly. This adds friction to reasoning
about which paths belong to which Nvim instances.
- No way to provide a human-friendly way to identify Nvim instances in
logs or server addresses.
Solution:
- Store unix sockets in stdpath('state')
- Allow --listen "name" and serverstart("name") to given a name (which
is appended to a generated path).
TODO:
- is stdpath(state) the right place?
Problem:
1. Log messages (especially in CI) are hard to correlate with tests.
2. Since b353a5c05f#11886, dumplog() prints the logs next to test
failures. This is noisy and gets in the way of the test results.
Solution:
1. Associate an incrementing id with each test and include it in log
messages.
- FUTURE: add v:name so Nvim instances can be formally "named"?
2. Mention "child" in log messages if the current Nvim is a child (based
on the presence of $NVIM).

PROBLEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS has conflicting purposes as both a parameter ("the
current process should listen on this address") and a descriptor ("the
current process is a child of this address").
This contradiction means the presence of NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS is
ambiguous, so child Nvim always tries to listen on its _parent's_
socket. This is the cause of lots of "Failed to start server" spam in
our test/CI logs:
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-4480-0
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-2168-0
SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Set $NVIM to the parent v:servername, *only* in child processes.
- Now the correct way to detect a "parent" Nvim is to check for $NVIM.
2. Do NOT set $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS in child processes.
3. On startup if $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS exists, unset it immediately after
server init.
4. Open a channel to parent automatically, expose it as v:parent.

Ref #8696
helpers.source() was a hack to work around the lack of anonymous
:source. Its "create tempfile" behavior is not a required part of most
tests that use it.
Some tests still need the old "create tempfile" behavior either because
they test SID behavior, or because of missing nvim_exec features: #16071
Problem: The eval.txt help file is way too big.
Solution: Move the builtin function details to a separate file.

Note: Neovim-specific references to |functions| were changed to
|builtin-functions|. This included updates to:
1. test/functional/vimscript/functions_spec.lua
2. test/functional/vimscript/eval_spec.lua
3. runtime/doc/lua.txt
Problem: Newly added features can escape the sandbox.
Solution: Add checks for restricted and secure. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)

timer_start is missing check_secure.
The timer callback can, for example, call a function defined from outside the sandbox that does
stuff that would be disallowed from inside the sandbox. This is usually not allowed.
Cherry-pick eval.txt change from:
68e6560b84
Required for v8.1.2013.
Does not include listener_*() functions.
js_*() functions are N/A.
json_encode() and json_decode() didn't include tests; add some anyway
(to json_functions_spec.lua).
test_lua.vim isn't included yet, so add tests to luaeval_spec.lua.
Problem
- `redir_exec` is obsolete, but it keeps getting used in new tests
because people copy existing tests.
- Disadvantages of `redir_exec`:
- Captures extra junk before the actual error/message that we _want_ to test.
- Does not fail on error, unlike e.g. `command()`.
Solution
- Use new functions like `nvim_exec` and `pcall_err`.
Problem:
Subdirectories like "visual", "insert", "normal" encourage people to
separate *related* tests for no good reason. Typically the _mode_ is
not the relevant topic of a test (and when it is, _then_ create
an appropriate describe() or it()).
Solution:
- Delete the various `test/functional/<mode>/` subdirectories, move
their tests to more meaningful topics.
- Rename `…/normal/` to `…/editor/`.
- Move or merge `…/visual/*` and `…/insert/*` tests into here where
appropriate.
- Rename `…/eval/` to `…/vimscript/`.
- Move `…/viml/*` into here also.
* test(reorg): insert/* => editor/mode_insert_spec.lua
* test(reorg): cmdline/* => editor/mode_cmdline_spec.lua
* test(reorg): eval core tests => eval_spec.lua
