patch 9.2.0030: completion: non-prefix matches shown when leader is NULL
Problem: When 'autocomplete' fires before compl_leader is initialized,
the prefix filter is bypassed. This allows non-prefix matches
(e.g. from fuzzy omnifuncs) to be shown in the popup menu and
incorrectly preinserted.
Solution: In get_leader_for_startcol(), if compl_leader.string is NULL,
fall back to using compl_orig_text as a filter for matches
starting at or after the completion column (Hirohito Higashi).
When 'autocomplete' first fires, compl_leader is NULL because
ins_compl_start() has not set it yet. This caused the prefix filter in
ins_compl_build_pum(), find_next_completion_match() and
find_common_prefix() to be bypassed, allowing non-prefix fuzzy omnifunc
matches to appear in the PUM and be preinserted.
Extend get_leader_for_startcol() to fall back to compl_orig_text when
compl_leader.string is NULL: if the match's cpt source startcol is less
than compl_col the match includes pre-compl_col text, so return
&compl_leader (NULL string) to signal "pass through"; otherwise return
&compl_orig_text so callers filter by the original text. The compl_col
<= 0 guard is kept only for the prepend-text path to avoid it
interfering with the NULL-leader fallback when compl_col is zero.
With this change all callers of get_leader_for_startcol() automatically
receive the correct filter string without additional helpers.
Also update Test_autocomplete_trigger Test 9 to reflect the new
behavior: 'faberge' is no longer shown when completing 'foo' because
it does not start with the current prefix.
Add Test_autocomplete_preinsert_null_leader() to verify that only
prefix-matching candidates appear in the PUM and are preinserted.

The Progress syntax file gained `set expandtab` in 4c3f536f4 (updated

distinguish between tabs and spaces for indentation, so this seems like
something that should be left to user preference; but the setting is
accompanied by the comment "The Progress editor doesn't cope with tabs
very well", so there may be reason to keep it.
However, using `set` means that any new buffers created after editing a
Progress file will also have `expandtab` turned on, which is likely
contrary to a user's expectations. We should use `setlocal` instead to
avoid this.

patch 9.2.0021: channel: connection timeout fails to fall back to IPv4
Problem: When ch_open() tries to connect to a hostname that resolves to
multiple addresses (e.g., both IPv6 and IPv4), it uses a
single waittime for all connection attempts. If the first IPv6
connection attempt times out, it consumes almost all of the
waittime, leaving insufficient time (often just 1ms) for the
IPv4 attempt to succeed. (reporter)
Solution: Implement a simplified version of Happy Eyeballs (RFC 8305) to
improve connection fallback behavior when IPv6 is unavailable
or slow (thinca).
Distribute the waittime across multiple addresses:
- First address: use up to 250ms (RFC 8305 Connection Attempt Delay) or
half of the total waittime, whichever is smaller
- Middle addresses: divide remaining time equally
- Last address: use all remaining time
This ensures that IPv4 fallback has sufficient time to succeed even when
IPv6 connection attempts fail or timeout.

patch 9.2.0010: Using Wayland compositor is still slow
Problem: Using the Wayland backend in GTK, rendering remains slow due
to per-line redraws, unnecessary Cairo push/pop groups, and
scroll operations that allocate new surfaces repeatedly.
Solution: Improve rendering performance (Christoffer Aasted).
This commit does the following:
- Add gui.is_wayland to detect Wayland backend
- Avoid blocking the input loop
- Skip early redraws; let the compositor handle full-screen redraws
- Use CAIRO_OPERATOR_SOURCE to overwrite instead of blend
- Reuse scroll source region for destination scroll region
- Optimize fast scroll-up
- Remove cairo_push_group/pop_group and cairo_clip in scroll path
to reduce allocations (~50MB saved on 4K fractional scale)
Since Wayland redraws the entire screen between updates (unlike X11),
further performance gains are possible by batching drawing in other code
paths, e.g.:
- message.c: batch lines to avoid scroll
- term.c: batch terminal redraws
These could be refactored later to deferred redraw with Wayland.

Problem: powershell commands wrongly wrapped when executed
Solution: Use &{ ... } to wrap commands when powershell/pwsh is in use
(Peter Lustig).
Allow compound commands with 'system()' when 'shell' is 'pwsh'
When the 'shell' option was set to 'powershell' or 'pwsh' and the
'system()' vimscript function was called with an argument containing two
or more shell commands (delimited by ';' or '&'), the function would
always fail with 'E282'.
The cause of the error was that VIM would wrap the shell command string
with parentheses (to allow the entire output to be redirected to a
temporary file for capturing) before actually passing it to the
PowerShell process for execution.
Unlike the typical shell that uses parentheses to group commands (and
possibly spawn a subshell), PowerShell uses them to resolve a single
command (pipeline) to an expression. To group multiple commands with
PowerShell, you must instead wrap them with either the subexpression
operator '$(...)' or an immediately evaluated script block '& { ... }'.
The latter option may be more efficient since it does not buffer its
output like for the former one does.
