The old behaviour (e.g. via `set display-=msgsep`) will not be available.
Assuming that messages always are being drawn on msg_grid
(or not drawn at all, and forwarded to `ext_messages` enabled UI)
will allows some simplifcations and enhancements moving forward.
Previously if a highlight group with a name outside the regexp
[a-zA-Z0-9_] was defined, Nvim would emit an "invalid character"
warning message. This was annoying for Lua scripts, as it was very hard
to debug what line of code was triggering this message since it didn't
produce a stack trace.
This has now been promoted to an error with the code E5248.
Additionally the ASCII character period ('.') and at-sign ('@') have
been added to the allowed list of characters of a highlight group name
to support the application of defining hierarchical highlight groups,
e.g. 'TS.keyword'.

Ref: 84f5463630
Rename:
- `underlineline` to `underdouble`
- `underdot` to `underdotted`
- `underdash` to `underdashed`
`underdouble` also now takes higher precedence than `undercurl`.
`:syntax enable` is no longer necessary (and may even be harmful). Do not recommend it in `usr_05.txt` and `usr_06.txt`, and mention the new default in `syntax.txt`.
Update runtime files

Docs only.
Omit json_encode (different impl, Nvim throws E474 instead; see v8.2.4695).
Skip <MouseMove> (Nvim *kinda* has <MouseMove>, but most of this doc needs
v8.2.4674 anyway...).
Nvim's 'hidden' doc was reworded somewhat, so manually integrate the changes
(8331cd13c4).
Also apply "comma-separated" changes to all possible places in options.txt.
Cherry-pick *highlight-clear* tag from v8.2.3578.
Ref: #9342
Adds the option to have a single global statusline for the current window at the bottom of the screen instead of a statusline at the bottom of every window. Enabled by setting `laststatus = 3`.
Due to the fact that statuslines at the bottom of windows are removed when global statusline is enabled, horizontal separators are used instead to separate horizontal splits. The horizontal separator character is configurable through the`horiz` item in `'fillchars'`. Separator connector characters are also used to connect the horizontal and vertical separators together, which are also configurable through the `horizup`, `horizdown`, `vertleft`, `vertright` and `verthoriz` items in `fillchars`.
The window separators are highlighted using the `WinSeparator` highlight group, which supersedes `VertSplit` and is linked to `VertSplit` by default in order to maintain backwards compatibility.
Update runtime files.

Cherry-pick tabpage.txt changes from patch 8.2.1413.
Skip digraph functions: included in #17440.
Skip many error codes as they haven't been ported yet.
This commit finishes support for colored and styled underlines adding
`CSI 4 : [2,4,5] m` support providing double, dashed, and dotted
underlines
Fixes#17362.
Remove syncolor.vim in favor of defining the default highlight groups
directly in `init_highlight`. This approach provides a number of
advantages:
1. The highlights are always defined, regardless of whether or not the
syntax regex engine is enabled.
2. Redundant sourcing of syntax files is eliminated (syncolor.vim was
often sourced multiple times based on how the user's colorscheme file
was written).
3. The syntax highlighting regex engine and the highlight groups
themselves are more fully decoupled.
4. Removal of the confusing `:syntax on` / `:syntax enable` dichotomy
(they now both do the same thing).
This approach also correctly solves a number of bugs related to
highlighting (#15176, #12573, #15205).
