According to :h win32-PATH, "the same directory as Vim" means the same
directory as the Vim executable, not Vim's current directory. In patch
8.2.4860 these two concepts were mixed up.

Problem: not possible to assign priority when defining a sign
(Mathias Fußenegger)
Solution: Add the priority argument for the :sign-define ex command and
the sign_define() function (LemonBoy)
Use the specified value instead of the default one (SIGN_DEF_PRIO) when
no priority is explicitly specified in sign_place or :sign place.

This is a breaking change which will make refactor of typval and shada
code a lot easier. In particular, code that would use or check for
v:msgpack_types.binary in the wild would be broken. This appears to be
rarely used in existing plugins.
Also some cases where v:msgpack_type.string would be used to represent a
binary string of "string" type, we use a BLOB instead, which is
vimscripts native type for binary blobs, and already was used for BIN
formats when necessary.
msgpackdump(msgpackparse(data)) no longer preserves the distinction
of BIN and STR strings. This is very common behavior for
language-specific msgpack bindings. Nvim uses msgpack as a tool to
serialize its data. Nvim is not a tool to bit-perfectly manipulate
arbitrary msgpack data out in the wild.
The changed tests should indicate how behavior changes in various edge
cases.
Problem: the previous documentation falsely states that "v" always
refers to the start of a visual area. In fact, the reference of "v" and
"." complement each other. If the cursor is at the start of
a (characterwise) visual area, then "v" refers to the end of the area.
Solution: be more verbose and explicit about the connection between "."
and "v" and also refer to |v_o| which many vim users will be familiar
with for visual areas.

Problem: Can't use a blockwise selection with a width for getregion().
Solution: Add support for blockwise selection with width like the return
value of getregtype() or the "regtype" value of TextYankPost
(zeertzjq).

Problem: getregionpos() can't properly indicate positions beyond eol.
Solution: Add an "eol" flag that enables handling positions beyond end
of line like getpos() does (zeertzjq).
Also fix the problem that a position still has the coladd beyond the end
of the line when its column has been clamped. In the last test case
with TABs at the end of the line the old behavior is obviously wrong.
I decided to gate this behind a flag because returning positions that
don't correspond to actual characters in the line may lead to mistakes
for callers that want to calculate the length of the selected text, so
the behavior is only enabled if the caller wants it.

Problem: getregionpos() doesn't handle one char selection.
Solution: Handle startspaces differently when is_oneChar is set.
Also add a test for an exclusive charwise selection with
multibyte chars (zeertzjq)

Problem: getregionpos() wrong with blockwise mode and multibyte.
Solution: Use textcol and textlen instead of start_vcol and end_vcol.
Handle coladd properly (zeertzjq).
Also remove unnecessary buflist_findnr() in add_regionpos_range(), as
getregionpos() has already switched buffer.

Problem: winframe functions incorrectly recompute window positions if
the altframe wasn't adjacent to the closed frame, which is
possible if adjacent windows had 'winfix{width,height}' set.
Solution: recompute for windows within the parent of the altframe and
closed frame. Skip this (as before) if the altframe was
top/left, but only if adjacent to the closed frame, as
positions won't change in that case. Also correct the return
value documentation for win_screenpos. (Sean Dewar)
The issue revealed itself after removing the win_comp_pos call below
winframe_restore in win_splitmove. Similarly, wrong positions could result from
windows closed in other tabpages, as win_free_mem uses winframe_remove (at least
until it is entered later, where enter_tabpage calls win_comp_pos).
NOTE: As win_comp_pos handles only curtab, it's possible via other means for
positions in non-current tabpages to be wrong (e.g: after changing 'laststatus',
'showtabline', etc.). Given enter_tabpage recomputes it, maybe it's intentional
as an optimization? Should probably be documented in win_screenpos then, but I
won't address that here.
closes: vim/vim#14191
Nvim: don't reuse "wp" for "topleft" in winframe_remove, so the change
integrates better with the call to winframe_find_altwin before it.

Problem: more places exist where curwin == prevwin, and it may even be
expected in some cases.
Solution: revert v9.1.0001, but document that it's possible instead.
(Sean Dewar)
I've had a change of heart for the following reasons:
- A quick 'n dirty [GitHub code search](https://github.com/search?q=%2F%28winnr%5C%28%5C%29%5Cs*%3D%3D%5Cs*winnr%5C%28%5B%27%22%5D%23%5B%27%22%5D%5C%29%7Cwinnr%5C%28%5B%27%22%5D%23%5B%27%22%5D%5C%29%5Cs*%3D%3D%5Cs*winnr%5C%28%5C%29%29%2F&type=code)
reveals some cases where it's expected in the wild.
Particularly, it made me aware `winnr() == winnr('#')` is possible when curwin
is changed temporarily during the evaluation of a &statusline expression item
(`%{...}`), and is used to show something different on the statusline
belonging to the previous window; that behaviour wasn't changed in v9.1.0001,
but it means curwin == prevwin makes sense in some cases.
- The definition and call sites of back_to_prevwin imply some expectation that
prevwin == wp (== curwin) is possible, as it's used to skip entering the
prevwin in that case.
- Prior to v9.1.0001, `:wincmd p` would not beep in the case that was patched in
v9.1.0001, but now does. That resulted in vim/vim#14047 being opened, as it affected
the CtrlP plugin.
I find it odd that `:wincmd p` had cases where it wouldn't beep despite doing
nothing, but it may be preferable to keep things that way (or instead also
beep if curwin == prevwin, if that's preferred).
- After more digging, I found cases in win_free_mem, enter_tabpage,
aucmd_restbuf and qf_open_new_cwindow where curwin == prevwin is possible
(many of them from autocommands). Others probably exist too, especially in
places where curwin is changed temporarily.

Problem: win_splitmove fires WinNewPre and possibly WinNew when moving
windows, even though no new windows are created.
Solution: don't fire WinNew and WinNewPre when inserting an existing
window, even if it isn't the current window. Improve the
accuracy of related documentation. (Sean Dewar)
