NEW BUILD SYSTEM!
This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary,
including cross-compilation for some targets.
As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from
an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa
Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux
x86_64 only
Follow up items:
- praxis for version and dependency bumping
- windows 💀
- full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to)
- update help and API metadata files
- installation into a $PREFIX
- more tests and linters
- Only match valid predefined and option variables.
- Match scope dictionaries.
- Highlight scope prefixed variables as a scope dictionary accessor. The
vimVarScope syntax group can be linked to vimVar to disable this.
- Include support for Neovim-only predefined and option variables.
Temporary collateral damage - scope dictionaries match instead of keys
in dictionary literals.

- Simplify usage:
- Instead of `nvim -l src/gen/gen_lsp.lua gen` now just
run `./src/gen/gen_lsp.lua`
- Removed `--methods` and `--capabilities` options.
- Improved rendering code in various areas.
This change modifies gen_lsp.lua so alias types are generated for
various types of lsp methods to distinguish between notifications
and requests:
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ServerToClient.Request
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ServerToClient.Notification
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ClientToServer.Request
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ClientToServer.Notification
These types are then used instead of `string` where appropriate.
Problem: fragile setup to get (preferred) keys from key_name_entry
(after v9.1.1179)
Solution: refactor the code further, fix a bug with "pref_name" key
entry introduced in v9.1.1180 (Yee Cheng Chin)
The optimization introduced for using bsearch() with key_name_entry
in vim/vim#16788 was fragile as it required synchronizing a non-obvious index
(e.g. IDX_KEYNAME_SWU) with the array that could be accidentally changed
by any one adding a key to it. Furthermore, the "pref_name" that was
introduced in that change was unnecessary, and in fact introduced a bug,
as we don't always want to use the canonical name.
The bug is triggered when the user triggers auto-complete using a
keycode, such as `:set <Scroll<Tab>`. The bug would end up showing two
copies of `<ScrollWheelUp>` because both entries end up using the
canonical name.
In this change, remove `pref_name`, and simply use a boolean to track
whether an entry is an alt name or not and modify logic to respect that.
Add test to make sure auto-complete works with alt names
closes: vim/vim#169877d8e7df551
In Nvim there is no `enabled` field, so put `is_alt` before `name` to
reduce the size of the struct.

Problem: Cannot disable individual captures and patterns in treesitter queries.
Solution:
* Expose the corresponding tree-sitter API functions for `TSQuery` object.
* Add documentation for `TSQuery`.
* Return the pattern ID from `get_captures_at_pos()` (and hence `:Inspect!`).
This actually only affects the order in which Cmdline* and Cmdwin*
autocommands are listed, and it appears that the names of Cmdwin* were
changed to CmdWin* in 8ed2dbf6e2 without
explanation.
Also, remove the final NULL element from the names table.
Problem:
"make lintdoc" is not validating vimdoc (:help) tags.
Solution:
- Call `lang_tree:parse()` to init the parser.
- Load netrw 🤢 explicitly, since it was moved to `pack/dist/opt/`.
- Fix invalid help tags.
This allows generated sources to be automatically rebuilt when modifying
hashy code.
Also, appending to NVIM_GENERATED_FOR_{HEADERS,SOURCES} in the middle of
custom commands is a bit strange. Move that after the custom commands.
Follow-up to #32768
This is slightly faster according to the benchmark.
This also makes it a build error if hashy is used incorrectly
(generating a case-insensitive hash function from mixed-case strings),
as duplicate case labels aren't allowed.
Problem: Unnecessary use of vim_tolower() in vim_strnicmp_asc().
Solution: Use TOLOWER_ASC() instead (zeertzjq).
It was passing *s1 and *s2 to vim_tolower(). When char is signed, which
is the case on most platforms, c < 0x80 is always true, so it already
behaves the same as TOLOWER_ASC().
closes: vim/vim#16826b7dc5d3b61
Use this function for hashy case-insensitive lookup, as it's ASCII-only.
Note that this function doesn't cast TOLOWER_ASC() argument to uint8_t,
so it'll treat a UTF-8 byte as smaller than NUL. It doesn't matter, as
one of the strings being compared is ASCII-only, and its behavior still
leads to consistent ordering.
Problem: too many strlen() calls in misc2.c
Solution: refactor misc2.c and use bsearch() instead of a linear search
to find matches in the key_names_table array (John Marriott).
This commit changes misc2.c to use bsearch() to perform string searches of
the key_names_table array.
Implementation detail:
- Some entries in this array have alternate names. Add field alt_name to
point to the alternate name.
- Some entries in this array are only available if a given feature is
defined. Keep them in the array, but add a boolean field enabled to
indicate if the record can be used or not. If the feature is not
available, the corresponding enabled field is set to FALSE.
In my measurements running the test suite on a huge non-gui build on
linux, the number of string comparisons in get_special_key_code():
Before (linear search): 2,214,957
After (binary search): 297,770
A side effect of this is 1477 calls to STRLEN() in
get_special_key_name() for the same test run are no longer necessary.

Problem:
Indenting text is a common task in plugins/scripts for
presentation/formatting, yet vim has no way of doing it (especially
"dedent", and especially non-buffer text).
Solution:
Introduce `vim.text.indent()`. It sets the *exact* indentation because
that's a more difficult (and thus more useful) task than merely
"increasing the current indent" (which is somewhat easy with a `gsub()`
one-liner).
- Move all generator Lua scripts to the `src/gen/`
- Add a `.luarc.json` to `src/gen/`
- Add a `preload.lua` to `src/gen/`
- Add `src` to `package.path` so it aligns with `.luarc.json'
- Fix all `require` statements in `src/gen/` so they are consistent:
- `require('scripts.foo')` -> `require('gen.foo')`
- `require('src.nvim.options')` -> `require('nvim.options')`
- `require('api.dispatch_deprecated')` -> `require('nvim.api.dispatch_deprecated')`
