channel_write() uses a ref-counted buffer for writing. This buffer
should be released if it was used in "refcount" channel_write() calls.
But calling channel_write() on a closed channel would return early and
not decrease the refcount of the used buffer.
Notifications for a channel will be sent directly if there are no
pending requests (for this channel). Otherwise notifications are queued
for later sending.
But in two cases a notification could be sent with pending requests:
* Broadcasting a notification
* A channel that has just finished its last pending request
would call send_delayed_notifications() for all channels.
To prevent this, every channel can now only send its own delayed
notifications and broadcasting checks for pending requests.
This library makes it easier to script communication with interactive programs.
It is similar to what the "expect" tcl extension does, but uses an object
oriented API and is designed to integrate nicely with Neovim job control.
- Use on_exit instead of on_stdout since there's no guarantee that the OS will
send the data in time(It fails randomly in slow environments such as
travis/valgrind)
- Increase the timeout gap for the "jobwait with timeout" test
Due to the way vimscript garbage collection handles cyclic references, its not
possible to rely on incrementing `dv_refcount` to prevent dicts still used
internally from being collected: If a object with dv_refcount > 0 isn't
reachable by vimscript code, it will be freed when `garbage_collect()` is
called. Add the `internal_refcount` field to prevent this.
Problem: Setting 'history' to a big value causes out-of-memory errors.
Solution: Limit the value to 10000. (Hirohito Higashi)

Problem: In a help buffer the global 'foldmethod' is used. (Paul Marshall)
Solution: Reset 'foldmethod' when starting to edit a help file. Move the
code to a separate function.

This also removes the `#elseif defined(MSWIN)` clause. Due to the
enclosing `if` block, we will never get to this point when src starts with
a '%', making the whole #elseif block dead code.
Because the COMMAND arguments of custom_command takes a list, and
CMAKE_C_FLAGS is a string, it will be treated as a single long
argument, which will cause the build to fail.
Use os_scandir().
fname_case() only gets used when `defined(USE_FNAME_CASE)` (on operating
systems with case-insensitive file systems), but may be useful in other
contexts, so move it to path.c. (See the TODO.)
Remove the unused parameter, len.
Problem: In Ex mode, cyrillic characters are not handled. (Stas Malavin)
Solution: Support multi-byte characters in Ex mode. (Yukihiro Nakadaira)

- Remove JobActivity autocmd and v:job_data variable
- Simplify `jobstart` to receive:
- An argument vector
- An optional dictionary which may contain any of the current `jobstart`
options plus `on_stdout`, `on_stderr` and `on_exit` callbacks.
- Refactor and add more job tests
- Update documentation
- Make it possible to call or unref ufunc_T pointers directly.
- Keep refcount of named functions, and stop them from being deleted if the
refcount is greater than 1.
Problem: Language mapping also applies to mapped characters.
Solution: Add the 'langnoremap' option, when on 'langmap' does not apply to
mapped characters. (Christian Brabandt)

- In general, many sections have been expanded a lot.
- Defer to the wiki when it makes sense.
- Rewrite a bunch of things to be clearer. There is a lot more
verbosity, but clarifying as many items as we can in this document is
preferable to it being done later in the issue tracker.

[ci skip]
Instead of selecting stderr on startup if stdin is not a tty, first try reading
from it and only switch to stderr when reading fails. With this behavior we
support commands like:
```
echo q | nvim -es
```
and
```
ls *.md | xargs nvim
```
Fixed small bugs in rstream.c to make this happen.
This documents the differences between nvim and nvim.
Regarding the removal of references to 'renderoptions': it was never
added in the first place, so there's no need to mention its "removal".
- Modify tty-test to allow easier control over the terminal
- Add a new directory with various terminal tests/specifications
- Remove a pending job/pty test.
- Flush stdout in Screen:snapshot_util() (avoid waiting for the test to finish)
- Replace libuv sigwinch watcher by a sigaction handler. libuv randomly fails to
deliver signals on OSX. Might be related to the problem fixed by
@bbcddc55ee1e5605657592644be0102ed3a5f104 (under the hoods, libuv uses a pipe
to deliver signals to the main thread, which might be blocking in some
situations)
