Problem: Wayland code can be improved
Solution: Refactor Wayland Clipboard code (Foxe Chen).
This the second attempt to refactor the Wayland code base:
- Move clipboard code from wayland.c to clipboard.c
- Use C99 bool type
- Properly poll the Wayland display file descriptor
- Instead of checking if the data source is not NULL in order to
determine if a selection event comes from us, use a special mime type
to identify selection events coming from ourselves. The problem with
the previous approach is that race conditions may occur.
- Put the focus stealing code under a new feature "wayland_focus_steal"
- Use ELAPSED_* macros instead of gettimeofday()
- Pass tests
- Reimplement commented out code
- Update docs
- Make Wayland clipboard behaviour more in line with X11 when connection
is lost
- add missing malloc checks and possible memory leaks + refactored some
tests.

Problem: fuzzy-matching can be improved
Solution: Implement a better fuzzy matching algorithm
(Girish Palya)
Replace fuzzy matching algorithm with improved fzy-based implementation
The
[current](https://www.forrestthewoods.com/blog/reverse_engineering_sublime_texts_fuzzy_match/)
fuzzy matching algorithm has several accuracy issues:
* It struggles with CamelCase
* It fails to prioritize matches at the beginning of strings, often
ranking middle matches higher.
After evaluating alternatives (see my comments
[here](https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/17531#issuecomment-3112046897)
and
[here](https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/17531#issuecomment-3121593900)),
I chose to adopt the [fzy](https://github.com/jhawthorn/fzy) algorithm,
which:
* Resolves the aforementioned issues.
* Performs better.
Implementation details
This version is based on the original fzy
[algorithm](https://github.com/jhawthorn/fzy/blob/master/src/match.c),
with one key enhancement: **multibyte character support**.
* The original implementation supports only ASCII.
* This patch replaces ascii lookup tables with function calls, making it
compatible with multibyte character sets.
* Core logic (`match_row()` and `match_positions()`) remains faithful to
the original, but now operates on codepoints rather than single-byte
characters.
Performance
Tested against a dataset of **90,000 Linux kernel filenames**. Results
(in milliseconds) show a **\~2x performance improvement** over the
current fuzzy matching algorithm.

Solution: warn the user for such things, drop leading /, don't

refactor autoload/tar.vim
tar.vim: drop leading / in path names
A tar archive containing files with leading `/` may cause confusions as
to where the content is extracted. Let's make sure we drop the leading
`/` and use a relative path instead.
Also while at it, had to refactor it quite a bit and increase the
minimum supported Vim version to v9. Also add a test for some basic tar
functionality

In this commit, all legacy encodings for tutor files are removed.
* All the tutor files `tutor1.xx` and `tutor2.xx` are now `utf-8`
* All `README.xx.txt` files are now `utf-8`
* All makefiles are removed, as they are no longer needed
* The `tutor.vim` script is simplified
* The `README` indicates `utf-8` as a requirement
* update vimtutor.bat file
In 2025, there is no realistic scenario where a beginner starts the Vim
9.1 tutor on a machine that lacks UTF-8 support.
This change will ease the maintenance of the tutor files. Cf #17562 for
an example.

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.

when resetting a color scheme the old color won't be left behind.
So add a Makefile in the 'ci' directory that verifies that all
documented '*hl-<groupname>' from the documentation are either reflected
in the source code, or belong to a list of 'known to be ignored'
highlight groups and let that check run as part of the CI test suite.
