we cannot remove 'paste'. It is very common in plugins and configs.
'pastetoggle' can and should be removed though, it's a total waste of everyone's time because it generates bug reports and doesn't work well, and is useless because bracketed-paste works better.
This commit implements the ability to control all of the XDG paths
Neovim should use. This is done by setting an environment variable named
NVIM_APPNAME. For example, setting $NVIM_APPNAME makes Neovim look for
its configuration directory in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$NVIM_APPNAME instead of
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim.
If NVIM_APPNAME is not set or is an empty string, "nvim" will be used as
default.
The usecase for this feature is to enable an easy way to switch from
configuration to configuration. One might argue that the various $XDG
environment variables can already be used for this usecase. However,
setting $XDG environment variables also affects tools spawned by Neovim.
For example, while setting $XDG_CONFIG_HOME will enable Neovim to use a
different configuration directory, it will also prevent Git from finding
its "default" configuration.

Problem:
Failing Windows CI:
FAILED test/functional\options\defaults_spec.lua @ 361: XDG defaults with too long XDG variables are correctly set

Solution:
The assert_log() statements are not relevant on Windows, because there
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not used for creating servers, it uses \\.pipe\….

E970: Failed to initialize builtin lua modules
Solution:
- Log to a private $NVIM_LOG_FILE in tests that intentionally fail and
cause ERR log messages.
- Assert that the expected messages are actually logged.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
Add 'mousescroll' option to control how many lines to scroll by when a
mouse wheel keycode is received. The mousescroll option controls both
horizontal and vertical scrolling. The option is a string in the format:
set mousescroll=direction:count,direction:count
Where direction is either "ver" or "hor", and count is a non negative
integer. If a direction is omitted, a default value is used. The default
values remain unchanged, that is 3 for vertical scrolling, and 6 for
horizontal scrolling. As such, the mousescroll default is "ver:3,hor:6".
Add mousescroll documentation
- Add option documentation in options.txt
- Add brief summary in quickref.txt
Update :help scroll-mouse-wheel
- Mention mousescroll option as a means of controlling scrolling.
- Remove obsolete suggestion to map scroll wheel keys to <C-U> to
scroll by a single line -- users should prefer the mousescroll option.
- Add some information about the consequences of remapping scroll wheel
keys (they lose their magic ability to affect inactive windows).
Update :help vim-differences
- Add brief mousescroll summary under Options
Add mousescroll tests
- Test option validation
- Test default mousescroll value and behavior
- Test fallback to default values
- Test mouse vertical and horizontal scrolling in normal mode
- Test mouse vertical and horizontal scrolling in insert mode
Problem:
- Since c57f6b28d7#8519, sockets are created in ~/.local/… but XDG
spec says: "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR: Must be on the local filesystem", which
implies that XDG_STATE_DIR is potentially non-local.
- Not easy to inspect Nvim-created temp files (for debugging etc).
Solution:
- Store sockets in stdpath('run') ($XDG_RUNTIME_DIR).
- Establish "/tmp/nvim.user/" as the tempdir root shared by all Nvims.
- Make ok() actually useful.
- Introduce assert_nolog().

Problem: 'listchars' should be window-local.
Solution: Make 'listchars' global-local. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, Marco Hinz,
closesvim/vim#5206, closesvim/vim#7850)

Nvim already has this feature, but it implements :set listchars the same
as :setglobal listchars, which is incorrect. Vim's implementation of
:set listchars is correct: using :set listchars clears local value.
Copy the behavior of 'undodir' and create the last specified directory
in the 'backupdir' option if it doesn't exist.
Use trailing slashes for 'backupdir' as well as 'viewdir' and 'undodir'
by default. Note that 'undodir' always behaves as though it has the
trailing slashes, regardless of whether or not they are present. They
are added to the default option value to minimize surprise.
The '.' value in 'backupdir' is kept because the default behavior for
backups is solely to have a backup if the save of the main file to disk
fails. As soon as that save is completed the backup file is removed, so
generally there is no need to put them in a central location.

while there is some controversy, stdpath('cache') looks like a better fit for logs than stdpath('data'): you can remove logs without preventing nvim to work which fits the XDG_CACHE_HOME definition of `user specific non-essential data files`.
- Windows environment variables are semicolon-separated, but some logic
was assuming colon (:). This broke initialization and parsing of
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, XDG_DATA_DIRS, 'runtimepath', stdpath(), etc.

ref #12793
Problem: 'shortmess' flag "n" not used in two places.
Solution: Make use of the "n" flag consistent. (Nick Jensen, closesvim/vim#6245,
closesvim/vim#6244)

These options were previously global. A global-local window option
behaves closer to a global option "per default" (i e with :set),
but still supports local behavior via :setl
Also this restores back-compat for nvim_set_option("fcs", ...)
which are currently broken on 0.4.x but worked in earlier versions
It is perfectly fine and expected to detach from the screen just by
the UI disconnecting from nvim or exiting nvim. Just keep detach() in
screen_basic_spec, to get some coverage of the detach method itself.
This avoids hang on failure in many situations (though one could argue
that detach() should be "fast", or at least "as fast as resize",
which works in press-return already).
Never use detach() just to change the size of the screen, try_resize()
method exists for that specifically.
The test.functional.helpers and test.unit.helpers modules now include
all of the public functions from test.helpers, so there is no need to
separately require('test.helpers').
On Windows we store non-config data in "$XDG_DATA_HOME/nvim-data". But
the "…/site" items in 'runtimepath' did not correctly point to that
location, they used "…/nvim/site".
Fix the init logic to use "…/nvim-data/site".
