This option simplifies the configuration options:
1) `g:python{,3}_host_prog` is not set.
Neovim tries its best to find a suitable interpreter. This means calling
exepath(), potentially multiple times, and a system('python -c ...') with
the first found interpreter, to get the Python version.
2) `g:python{,3}_host_prog` is set.
Avoids everything of the above. No safety checks, no training wheels. Fast
host startup time!
Problem: When 'filetype' was set and reloading a buffer which does not
cause it to be set, the syntax isn't loaded. (KillTheMule)
Solution: Remember whether the FileType event was fired and fire it if not.

Problem: Using 'hlsearch' highlighting instead of matchpos if there is no
search match.
Solution: Pass NULL as last item to next_search_hl() when searching for
'hlsearch' match. (Shane Harper, closesvim/vim#1013)

Problem: When using matchaddpos() a character after the end of the line can
be highlighted.
Solution: Only highlight existing characters. (Hirohito Higashi)

Problem: New regexp engine does not work properly with EBCDIC.
Solution: Define equivalence class characters. (Owen Leibman)

Although nvim doesn't support EBCDIC systems, this keeps us inline with
upstream code so its easier to merge future patches in this area and
improves the readability of the code.
Many people have `runtime ftplugin/man.vim` in their init file, as was
required in Vim to have the `:Man` command generally available.
7a4d069b removed the &filetype check, which caused these setups to
always create a blank `man://` buffer.
Problem: When using CTRL-W f and pressing "q" at the ATTENTION dialog the
newly opened window is not closed.
Solution: Close the window and go back to the original one. (Norio Takagi,

Problem: Using freed memory when parsing 'printoptions' fails.
Solution: Save the old options and restore them in case of an error.

Contains the exit value nvim will use.
Before exiting, it is v:null. That way jobs or autocmds (in VimLeavePre or
VimLeave) can check if Neovim is about to quit and with what exit value.
Closes#4666.
