During provider dispatch, eval_call_provider() saves global
state--including pointers, such as `autocmd_fname`--into
`provider_caller_scope` which is later restored by f_rpcrequest().
But `autocmd_fname` is special-cased in eval_vars(), for performance
(see Vim patch 7.2.021; this is also the singular purpose of the
`autocmd_fname_full` global. Yay!)
If eval_vars() frees `autocmd_fname` then its provider-RPC-scoped alias
becomes a problem.
Solution: Don't free autocmd_fname in eval_vars(), just copy into it.

Vim patch 7.2.021

Problem: When executing autocommands getting the full file name may be
slow. (David Kotchan)
Solution: Postpone calling FullName_save() until autocmd_fname is used.

provider#node#can_inspect will fail on some systems because it is common
to have old node versions in OS (any Linux OS that has LTS releases)
and CI (Travis, Appveyor).
NODE_PATH can be trivially set with VimL.
Build scripts don't have to set it for the nodejs tests to work.
NODE_PATH is optional to begin with and is used only as a workaround
for the neovim node.js host.
ci: install nodejs 8 in Appveyor, Travis
provider: check node version for debug support
Resolve https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/7577#issuecomment-350590592 for Unix.
provider: test if nodejs in ci supports --inspect-brk
nodejs host for neovim requires nodejs 6+ to work properly.
nodejs 6.12+ or 7.6+ is required for debug support via `node --inspect-brk`.
provider: run cli.js of nodejs host directly
npm shims are useless because the user cannot set node to debug mode via
--inspect-brk. This is problematic on Windows which use batchfiles and
shell scripts to compensate for not supporting shebang.
The patch uses `npm root -g` to get the absolute path of the global npm
modules. If that fails, then the user did not install neovim npm package
globally. Use that absolute path to find `neovim/bin/cli.js`, which is
what the npm shim actually runs with node. glob() is for a simple file
check in case bin/ is removed because the npm shims are ignored now.
Dispense with the FuncUndefined/CmdUndefined quasi-optimization.
If there are no rplugins, plugin/rplugin.vim takes less than 1ms.

It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
Use the existing Vimscript function provider#pythonx#Detect()
to determine whether the Neovim Python module is installed and
Python 2/3 tests can be run.
