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.

Problem:
Higher-priority signs may be hidden by lower-priority signs.
Solution:
Place higher-priority signs from the left.
Example:
nvim_buf_set_extmark(0, ns, 0, -1, {sign_text='H', priority=1})
nvim_buf_set_extmark(0, ns, 0, -1, {sign_text='W', priority=2})
nvim_buf_set_extmark(0, ns, 0, -1, {sign_text='E', priority=3})
Before:
| |
H | W E |
^ | |
Not visible
After:
| |
| E W | H
| | ^
Not visible
Fixes#16632
Problem: Unable to identify legacy signs when fetching extmarks with
`nvim_buf_get_extmarks()`.
Solution: Add "sign_name" to the extmark detail array.
Add some misc. changes as follow-up to #25724
Problem: The legacy signlist data structures and associated functions are
redundant since the introduction of extmark signs.
Solution: Store signs defined through the legacy commands in a hashmap, placed
signs in the extmark tree. Replace signlist associated functions.
Usage of the legacy sign commands should yield no change in behavior with the
exception of:
- "orphaned signs" are now always removed when the line it is placed on is
deleted. This used to depend on the value of 'signcolumn'.
- It is no longer possible to place multiple signs with the same identifier
in a single group on multiple lines. This will now move the sign instead.
Moreover, both signs placed through the legacy sign commands and through
|nvim_buf_set_extmark()|:
- Will show up in both |sign-place| and |nvim_buf_get_extmarks()|.
- Are displayed by increasing sign identifier, left to right.
Extmark signs used to be ordered decreasingly as opposed to legacy signs.
- eval.lua is now the source of truth.
- Formatting is much more consistent.
- Fixed Lua type generation for polymorphic functions (get(), etc).
- Removed "Overview" section from builtin.txt
- Can generate this if we really want it.
- Moved functions from sign.txt and testing.txt into builtin.txt.
- Removed the *timer* *timers* tags since libuv timers via vim.uv should be preferred.
- Removed the temp-file-name tag from tempname()
- Moved lueval() from lua.txt to builtin.txt.
* Fix indent
* fixup!
* fixup! fixup!
* fixup! better tag formatting
* fixup: revert changes no longer needed
* fixup! CI

Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make sign functions usable as a method.
93476fd634
Make sign_placelist and sign_unplacelist accept exactly one argument.
Before, they erroneously accepted one or more arguments.
Problem: The eval.txt help file is too big.
Solution: Split off testing support to testing.txt. Move function details
to where the functionality is explained.

contains the duplicate tag fix in runtime/doc/testing.txt.
Problem: There is no function for the ":sign jump" command.
Solution: Add the sign_jump() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3780)

Problem: ":sign place" requires the buffer argument.
Solution: Make the argument optional. Also update the help and clean up the
sign test. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3767)

Problem: Deleting signs and completion for :sign is insufficient.
Solution: Add deleting signs in a specified or any group from the current
cursor location. Add group and priority to sign command
completion. Add tests for different sign unplace commands. Update
help text. Add tests for sign jump with group. Update help for
sign jump. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3731)

Problem: Placing signs can be complicated.
Solution: Add functions for defining and placing signs. Introduce a group
name to avoid different plugins using the same signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3652)

This removes all instances of '{not in Vi}', '{Vi: ... }', etc.
We don't care about Vi compatibility, so all of these annotations are
useless in nvim. This also removed the syntax definitions for these
items.
In addition, remove instances of '{only when compiled with +feature}'
adjacent to instances of '{not in Vi}' and friends.
