patch 9.1.1301: completion: cannot configure completion functions with 'complete'
Problem: completion: cannot configure completion functions with
'complete'
Solution: add support for setting completion functions using the f and o
flag for 'complete' (Girish Palya)
This change adds two new values to the `'complete'` (`'cpt'`) option:
- `f` – invokes the function specified by the `'completefunc'` option
- `f{func}` – invokes a specific function `{func}` (can be a string or `Funcref`)
These new flags extend keyword completion behavior (e.g., via `<C-N>` /
`<C-P>`) by allowing function-based sources to participate in standard keyword
completion.
**Key behaviors:**
- Multiple `f{func}` values can be specified, and all will be called in order.
- Functions should follow the interface defined in `:help complete-functions`.
- When using `f{func}`, escaping is required for spaces (with `\`) and commas
(with `\\`) in `Funcref` names.
- If a function sets `'refresh'` to `'always'`, it will be re-invoked on every
change to the input text. Otherwise, Vim will attempt to reuse and filter
existing matches as the input changes, which matches the default behavior of
other completion sources.
- Matches are inserted at the keyword boundary for consistency with other completion methods.
- If finding matches is time-consuming, `complete_check()` can be used to
maintain responsiveness.
- Completion matches are gathered in the sequence defined by the `'cpt'`
option, preserving source priority.
This feature increases flexibility of standard completion mechanism and may
reduce the need for external completion plugins for many users.
**Examples:**
Complete matches from [LSP](https://github.com/yegappan/lsp) client. Notice the use of `refresh: always` and `function()`.
```vim
set cpt+=ffunction("g:LspCompletor"\\,\ [5]). # maxitems = 5
def! g:AbbrevCompletor(findstart: number, base: string): any
if findstart > 0
var prefix = getline('.')->strpart(0, col('.') - 1)->matchstr('\S\+$')
if prefix->empty()
return -2
endif
return col('.') - prefix->len() - 1
endif
var lines = execute('ia', 'silent!')
if lines =~? gettext('No abbreviation found')
return v:none # Suppresses warning message
endif
var items = []
for line in lines->split("\n")
var m = line->matchlist('\v^i\s+\zs(\S+)\s+(.*)$')
if m->len() > 2 && m[1]->stridx(base) == 0
items->add({ word: m[1], info: m[2], dup: 1 })
endif
endfor
return items->empty() ? v:none :
items->sort((v1, v2) => v1.word < v2.word ? -1 : v1.word ==# v2.word ? 0 : 1)
enddef
```
**Auto-completion:**
Vim's standard completion frequently checks for user input while searching for
new matches. It is responsive irrespective of file size. This makes it
well-suited for smooth auto-completion. You can try with above examples:
def SkipTextChangedIEvent(): string
# Suppress next event caused by <c-e> (or <c-n> when no matches found)
set eventignore+=TextChangedI
timer_start(1, (_) => {
set eventignore-=TextChangedI
})
return ''
enddef
```

Problem: inline word diff treats multibyte chars as word char
(after 9.1.1243)
Solution: treat all non-alphanumeric characters as non-word characters
(Yee Cheng Chin)
Previously inline word diff simply used Vim's definition of keyword to
determine what is a word, which leads to multi-byte character classes
such as emojis and CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) characters all
classifying as word characters, leading to entire sentences being
grouped as a single word which does not provide meaningful information
in a diff highlight.
Fix this by treating all non-alphanumeric characters (with class number
above 2) as non-word characters, as there is usually no benefit in using
word diff on them. These include CJK characters, emojis, and also
subscript/superscript numbers. Meanwhile, multi-byte characters like
Cyrillic and Greek letters will still continue to considered as words.
Note that this is slightly inconsistent with how words are defined
elsewhere, as Vim usually considers any character with class >=2 to be
a "word".

ci: Check and confirm Vim feature flags exist before testing
Vim tests for features such as python3 relies on checking the feature
flag exists by doing `has('python3')`. However, if the feature itself is
broken and the flag returns 0, the relevant tests will simply silently
get ignored and CI will passed erroneously. As a preventive measure, as
basic checks to make sure certain feature flags are correct as a basic
smoke test.
Currently only checking two types of feature flags:
1. Features that depend on system packages being installed properly
(e.g. sodium) and could be erroneously dropped if the CI environment
changed or a bug exists in the configure script.
2. Scripting languages. When in dynamic mode, these feature flags (e.g.
"ruby", "python3") will return 0 when the lib cannot be found or the
code has an initialization bug. This happened in #16964 where CI
still passed despite Python 3 being broken.

patch 9.1.1258: regexp: max \U and \%U value is limited by INT_MAX
Problem: regexp: max \U and \%U value is limited by INT_MAX but gives a
confusing error message (related: v8.1.0985).
Solution: give a better error message when the value reaches INT_MAX
When searching Vim allows to get up to 8 hex characters using the /\V
and /\%V regex atoms. However, when using "/\UFFFFFFFF" the code point is
already above what an integer variable can hold, which is 2,147,483,647.
Since patch v8.1.0985, Vim already limited the max codepoint to INT_MAX
(otherwise it caused a crash in the nfa regex engine), but instead of
error'ing out it silently fell back to parse the number as a backslash
value and not as a codepoint value and as such this "/[\UFFFFFFFF]" will
happily find a "\" or an literal "F". And this "/[\d127-\UFFFFFFFF]"
will error out as "reverse range in character class).
Interestingly, the max Unicode codepoint value is U+10FFFF which still
fits into an ordinary integer value, which means, that we don't even
need to parse 8 hex characters, but 6 should have been enough.
However, let's not limit Vim to search for only max 6 hex characters
(which would be a backward incompatible change), but instead allow all 8
characters and only if the codepoint reaches INT_MAX, give a more
precise error message (about what the max unicode codepoint value is).
This allows to search for "[\U7FFFFFFE]" (will likely return "E486
Pattern not found") and "[/\U7FFFFFF]" now errors "E1517: Value too
large, max Unicode codepoint is U+10FFFF".
While this change is straight forward on architectures where long is 8
bytes, this is not so simple on Windows or 32bit architectures where long
is 4 bytes (and therefore the test fails there). To account for that,
let's make use of the vimlong_T number type and make a few corresponding
changes in the regex engine code and cast the value to the expected data
type. This however may not work correctly on systems that doesn't have
the long long datatype (e.g. OpenVMS) and probably the test will fail
there.

patch 9.1.1257: Mixing vim_strsize() with mb_ptr2cells() in pum_redraw()
Problem: Mixing vim_strsize() with mb_ptr2cells() in pum_redraw().
Solution: Change vim_strsize() to mb_string2cells() (zeertzjq).
Since vim_strsize() uses ptr2cells() for the cell width of each char, it
is strange to mix it with mb_ptr2cells(), which is used both just below
and in pum_screen_puts_with_attr(), and screen_puts_len() also uses
something similar. Meanwhile mb_string2cells() uses mb_ptr2cells() for
the cell width of each char.
Note that the vim_strsize() and mb_string2cells() actually return the
same value here, as the transstr() above makes sure the string only
contains printable chars, and ptr2cells() and mb_ptr2cells() only return
different values for unprintable chars.
