vim-patch:9.1.0983: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
Problem: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
(Evgeni Chasnovski)
Solution: return the visible items via the "matches" key for
complete_info() (glepnir)

Problem:
`termopen` has long been a superficial wrapper around `jobstart`, and
has no real purpose. Also, `vim.system` and `nvim_open_term` presumably
will replace all features of `jobstart` and `termopen`, so centralizing
the logic will help with that.
Solution:
- Introduce `eval/deprecated.c`, where all deprecated eval funcs will live.
- Introduce "term" flag of `jobstart`.
- Deprecate `termopen`.
This commit makaes the following changes to the vim help syntax:
- fix excessive URL detection in help, because `file:{filename}` in
doc/options.txt is determined to be a URL.
- update highlighting N for :resize in help
- split Italian-specific syntax into separate help script
- highlight `Note` in parentheses in help
- update 'titlestring' behaviour in documentation for invalid '%' format

Problem: Some runtime files no longer spark joy.
Solution: Kondo the place up.
Still sparks _some_ joy (moved to new `runtime/scripts` folder):
* `macros/less.*`
* `mswin.vim`
* `tools/emoji_list.lua`
No longer sparks joy (removed):
* `macmap.vim` (gvimrc file; not useful in Nvim)
* `tools/check_colors.vim` (no longer useful with new default colorscheme and treesitter)
* `macros/editexisting.vim` (throws error on current Nvim)
* `macros/justify.vim` (obsolete shim for `packadd! justify`)
* `macros/matchit.vim` (same)
* `macros/shellmenu.vim` (same)
* `macros/swapmous.vim` (same)
Problem: cannot preserve error position when setting quickfix lists

Problem: `runtime/tools/emoji_list.vim` is a Lua script masquerading as
Vimscript, which is unnecessary now that `:source` works for Lua files.
Solution: Remove Vimscript wrapper.
Problem: No way to get prompt for input()/confirm()
Solution: add getcmdprompt() function (Shougo Matsushita)

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: No way to get the arity of a Vim function

Problem: Unused assignment in sign_define_cmd()
Solution: Remove the assignment. Also document the "priority" flag of
sign_define(). (zeertzjq)
closes: vim/vim#15169fc3f5dba52
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).
closes: vim/vim#14842afc2295c22
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.
