Also:
- fix a missing `<` in builtin.txt.
- edit `:function` `{name}` wording to match the change made for the docs above
by Justin in #10619.
- link to `*vimrc*` rather than `*init.vim*` in repeat.txt change (as `init.lua`
may also be used).

Problem: The `'statuscolumn'` was not re-evaluated for wrapped lines,
when preceded by virtual/filler lines. There was also no way
to distinguish virtual and wrapped lines in the status column.
Solution: Make sure to rebuild the statuscolumn, and replace variable
`v:wrap` with `v:virtnum`. `v:virtnum` is negative when drawing
virtual lines, zero when drawing the actual buffer line, and
positive when drawing the wrapped part of a buffer line.
Problem: Unable to customize the column next to a window ('gutter').
Solution: Add 'statuscolumn' option that follows the 'statusline' syntax,
allowing to customize the status column. Also supporting the %@
click execute function label. Adds new items @C and @s which
will print the fold and sign columns. Line numbers and signs
can be clicked, highlighted, aligned, transformed, margined etc.
Problem: Help tag generation picks up words in code examples.
Solution: Skip over examples. (Carlo Teubner, closesvim/vim#10813)

- `col()`'s example was changed to use `:echowin` so that the message can be
seen with `showmode`. Use "\n" to force a hit-enter instead as `:echowin`
isn't ported.
- Replace interpolated string usage in syntax/modula3.vim (not ported).
- Add a space after the `wincmd =` examples in `*CTRL-W_=*` so that the inlined
code is highlighted properly when followed by a full stop.

Neovim already removed `evim` (or any similar flags). The 'insertmode'
option is a weird remnant, so get rid of it.
The 'insertmode' option is replaced with a script that closely emulates
the option. This script is documented at :help 'insertmode'
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.

Problem: Using \{xxx} for encoding a modifier is not nice.
Solution: Use \<*xxx> instead, since it's the same as \<xxx> but producing a
different code.

Use this notation in langmap_spec.
Problem: GUI tests fail because the test doesn't use a modifier.
Solution: Add "\{xxx}" to be able to encode a modifier.
