Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
Problem: Tests failing because there is no error for float to string
conversion.
Solution: Change the check for failure to check for correct result. Make
some conversions strict in Vim9 script.

Problem: Vim9: builtin function arguments not checked at compile time.
Solution: Add more type checks. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#8539)

- `:write ++p foo/bar/baz.txt` should create parent directories `foo/bar/` if
they do not exist
- Note: `:foo ++…` is usually for options. No existing options have
a single-char abbreviation (presumably by design), so it's safe to
special-case `++p` here.
- Same for `writefile(…, 'foo/bar/baz.txt', 'p')`
- `BufWriteCmd` can see the ++p flag via `v:cmdarg`.

Problem
- `redir_exec` is obsolete, but it keeps getting used in new tests
because people copy existing tests.
- Disadvantages of `redir_exec`:
- Captures extra junk before the actual error/message that we _want_ to test.
- Does not fail on error, unlike e.g. `command()`.
Solution
- Use new functions like `nvim_exec` and `pcall_err`.
Problem:
Subdirectories like "visual", "insert", "normal" encourage people to
separate *related* tests for no good reason. Typically the _mode_ is
not the relevant topic of a test (and when it is, _then_ create
an appropriate describe() or it()).
Solution:
- Delete the various `test/functional/<mode>/` subdirectories, move
their tests to more meaningful topics.
- Rename `…/normal/` to `…/editor/`.
- Move or merge `…/visual/*` and `…/insert/*` tests into here where
appropriate.
- Rename `…/eval/` to `…/vimscript/`.
- Move `…/viml/*` into here also.
* test(reorg): insert/* => editor/mode_insert_spec.lua
* test(reorg): cmdline/* => editor/mode_cmdline_spec.lua
* test(reorg): eval core tests => eval_spec.lua
