Problem:
Showing an error via vim.notify() makes it awkward for callers such as
lsp/handlers.lua to avoid showing redundant errors.
Solution:
Return the message instead of showing it. Let the caller decide whether
and when to show the message.

Rejected experiment: move vim.ui.open() to vim.env.open()
Problem:
`vim.ui` is where user-interface "providers" live, which can be
overridden. It would also be useful to have a "providers" namespace for
platform-specific features such as "open", clipboard, python, and the other
providers listed in `:help providers`. We could overload `vim.ui` to
serve that purpose as the single "providers" namespace, but
`vim.ui.nodejs()` for example seems awkward.
Solution:
`vim.env` currently has too narrow of a purpose. Overload it to also be
a namespace for `vim.env.open`.

Using :CheckHealth invokes an error, and many of the features from :checkhealth
doesn't even work such as calling only a specific check. Users should use
:checkhealth instead.
Vimball is an outdated feature that is rarely used these days. It is not
a maintenance burden on its own, but it is nonetheless dead weight and
something we'd need to tell users to ignore when they inevitably ask
what it is.
See: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/21369#issuecomment-1347615173
The first argument which is non-nil is returned. This is useful when
using nested default values (e.g. in the EditorConfig plugin).
Before:
local enable = vim.F.if_nil(vim.b.editorconfig, vim.F.if_nil(vim.g.editorconfig, true))
After:
local enable = vim.F.if_nil(vim.b.editorconfig, vim.g.editorconfig, true)
Problem:
vim.treesitter.inspect_tree() and :InspectTree does not respect 'splitright'.
Solution:
- Change the default `command` from `topleft 60vnew` to `60vnew`.
- Change :InspectTree to respect command mods (`:vertical`, count, etc.).
Closes#22656
Problem:
The function name `vim.pretty_print`:
1. is verbose, which partially defeats its purpose as sugar
2. does not draw from existing precedent or any sort of convention
(except external projects like penlight or python?), which reduces
discoverability, and degrades signaling about best practices.
Solution:
- Rename to `vim.print`.
- Change the behavior so that
1. strings are printed without quotes
2. each arg is printed on its own line
3. tables are indented with 2 instead of 4 spaces
- Example:
:lua ='a', 'b', 42, {a=3}
a
b
42
{
a = 3
}
Comparison of alternatives:
- `vim.print`:
- pro: consistent with Lua's `print()`
- pro: aligns with potential `nvim_print` API function which will
replace nvim_echo, nvim_notify, etc.
- con: behaves differently than Lua's `print()`, slightly misleading?
- `vim.echo`:
- pro: `:echo` has similar "pretty print" behavior.
- con: inconsistent with Lua idioms.
- `vim.p`:
- pro: very short, fits with `vim.o`, etc.
- con: not as discoverable as "echo"
- con: less opportunity for `local p = vim.p` because of potential shadowing.
Rather than only check `editorconfig_enable` when the plugin is loaded,
check it each time the autocommand fires, so that users may enable or
disable it dynamically.
Also check for a buffer local version of the variable, so that
editorconfig can be enabled or disabled per-buffer.

These links were actually defined backwards: the highlight groups
actually being used for display are the new "Diagnostic*" groups, so
linking the old "LspDiagnostics*" groups to these does absolutely
nothing, since there is nothing actually being highlighted with the
LspDiagnostics* groups.
These links were made in an attempt to preserve backward compatibility
with existing colorschemes. We could reverse the links to maintain this
preservation, but then that disallows us from actually defining default
values for the new highlight groups.
Instead, just remove the links and be done with the old LspDiagnostics*
highlight groups.
This is not technically a breaking change: the breaking change already
happened in #15585, but this PR just makes that explicit.
This generalizes diagnostic handling outside of just the scope of LSP.
LSP clients are now a specific case of a diagnostic producer, but the
diagnostic subsystem is decoupled from the LSP subsystem (or will be,
eventually).

-range=-1 requires the current file to have at least <count> lines, whereas -addr=other doesn't.
-addr=other also sets <count> to -1 by default when it is not specified, though this feature seems undocumented.
Problem:
"set filetype=man" assumes the user wants :Man features, this does extra
stuff like renaming the buffer as "man://".
Solution:
- old entrypoint was ":set filetype=man", but this is too presumptuous #15487
- make the entrypoints more explicit:
1. when the ":Man" command is run
2. when a "man://" buffer is opened
- remove the tricky b:man_sect checks in ftplugin/man.vim and syntax/man.vim
- MANPAGER is supported via ":Man!", as documented.

Here I use a negative number to decide whether the count has been
explicitly set. I think it unlikely that negative sections will ever be
created given that negative numbers complicate argument handling:
```
$ man -1 foo
man: invalid option -- '1'
```
and given that there's already precedence for alphanumeric sections like
`3p`, `3x`, `n`, etc.

This does work, though:
```
$ man -S -3 baz
```
With `man baz.-3` and `man 'baz(-3)'`, (GNU) man *might* consider `-3`
internally as a section, but in the end reports as if the whole
argument was the name of a topic:
```
$ man 'baz(-3)'
No manual entry for baz(-3)
```

Closes#13411.
