Problem:
Currently `deepcopy` hashes every single tables it copies so it can be
reused. For tables of mostly unique items that are non recursive, this
hashing is unnecessarily expensive
Solution:
Port the `noref` argument from Vimscripts `deepcopy()`.
The below benchmark demonstrates the results for two extreme cases of
tables of different sizes. One table that uses the same table lots of
times and one with all unique tables.
| test | `noref=false` (ms) | `noref=true` (ms) |
| -------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------- |
| unique tables (50) | 6.59 | 2.62 |
| shared tables (50) | 3.24 | 6.40 |
| unique tables (2000) | 23381.48 | 2884.53 |
| shared tables (2000) | 3505.54 | 14038.80 |
The results are basically the inverse of each other where `noref` is
much more performance on tables with unique fields, and `not noref` is
more performant on tables that reuse fields.
Problem: luals returns stricter diagnostics with bundled luarc.json
Solution: Improve some function and type annotations:
* use recognized uv.* types
* disable diagnostic for global `vim` in shared.lua
* docs: don't start comment lines with taglink (otherwise LuaLS will interpret it as a type)
* add type alias for lpeg pattern
* fix return annotation for `vim.secure.trust`
* rename local Range object in vim.version (shadows `Range` in vim.treesitter)
* fix some "missing fields" warnings
* add missing required fields for test functions in eval.lua
* rename lsp meta files for consistency
* docs(lua): teach lua2dox how to table
* docs(lua): teach gen_vimdoc.py about local functions
No more need to mark local functions with @private
* docs(lua): mention @nodoc and @meta in dev-lua-doc
* fixup!

Problem:
Since #23925, Version.build may be vim.NIL, which causes tostring() to fail:
E5108: Error executing lua E5114: Error while converting print argument #1: …/version.lua:129:
attempt to concatenate field 'build' (a userdata value)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'print'
[string ":lua"]:1: in main chunk
Solution:
Handle vim.NIL in Version:__tostring().
vim.version.range() couldn't parse them correctly.
For example, vim.version.range('<0.9.0'):has('0.9.0') returned `true`.
fix: range:has() accepts vim.version()
So that it's possible to compare a range with:
vim.version.range(spec):has(vim.version())
Problem:
semver specifies that digit sequences in a prerelease string should be
compared as numbers, not lexically: https://semver.org/#spec-item-11
> Precedence for two pre-release versions with the same major, minor,
> and patch version MUST be determined by comparing each dot separated
> identifier from left to right until a difference is found as follows:
> 1. Identifiers consisting of only digits are compared numerically.
> 2. Identifiers with letters or hyphens are compared lexically in ASCII sort order.
> 3. Numeric identifiers always have lower precedence than non-numeric identifiers.
> 4. A larger set of pre-release fields has a higher precedence than a smaller set, if all of the preceding identifiers are equal.
Example:
1.0.0-alpha < 1.0.0-alpha.1 < 1.0.0-alpha.beta < 1.0.0-beta < 1.0.0-beta.2 < 1.0.0-beta.11 < 1.0.0-rc.1 < 1.0.0.
Solution:
cmp_prerel() treats all digit sequences in a prerelease string as
numbers. This doesn't _exactly_ match the spec, which specifies that
only dot-delimited digit sequences should be treated as numbers...
Problem:
"tmux 3.2a" (output from "tmux -V") is not parsed easily.
Solution:
With `strict=false`, discard everything before the first digit.
- rename Semver => Version
- rename vim.version.version() => vim.version._version()
- rename matches() => has()
- remove `opts` from cmp()
Problem:
If major<major but minor>minor, cmp_version_core returns 1
Solution:
- Fix logic in cmp_version_core
- Delete most eq()/gt()/lt() tests, they are redundant.
- version.cmp(): assert valid version
- add test for loading vim.version (the other tests use shared.lua in
the test runner)
- reduce test scopes, reword test descriptions
