Problem: Since patch 9.1.1199 the gvim window no longer had _NET_WM_ICON
nor WM_HINTS icon information, for example when not using a
Gnome or KDE desktop (after v9.1.1199)
Solution: Check if the icon theme as used in patch 1199 contains a gvim
icon. If so, set the window's icon from that. Otherwise
use the previous method (Olaf Seibert)

Problem: possible memory leak in vim9generics.c
Solution: Free ret_free if ga_grow() fails and before returning
(Lidong Yan).
In parse_generic_func_type_args() at vim9generics.c, we allocate memory
in ret_name and should free it by calling vim_free(ret_free). If
ga_grow on gfatab->gfat_args failed, we forget to call vim_free(ret_free)
thus would cause a leak. Add vim_free(ret_free) before return NULL.

Problem: cannot easily trigger wildcard expansion
Solution: Introduce wildtrigger() function
(Girish Palya)
This PR introduces a new `wildtrigger()` function.
See `:h wildtrigger()`
`wildtrigger()` behaves like pressing the `wildchar,` but provides a
more refined and controlled completion experience:
- Suppresses beeps when no matches are found.
- Avoids displaying irrelevant completions (like full command lists)
when the prefix is insufficient or doesn't match.
- Skips completion if the typeahead buffer has pending input or if a
wildmenu is already active.
- Does not print "..." before completion.
This is an improvement on the `feedkeys()` based autocompletion script
given in #16759.

`vim.pot` is included in the repository after
```gitcommit
commit 59bd74ed4c9ab366182c93bdc430b186729abbad
Author: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
Date: Sun Jul 13 08:26:57 2025 +0200
translation: include vim.pot in the repository
```
And it adds quite a lot of noise to the diffs since then. See the
reasoning in a comment in `.gitattributes`.
I'm not 100% sure that marking it as binary would have no negative side
effects. But I was not able to find a better option in `git help
attributes`.
Solution suggested in
```gitcommit
commit 5d552d652b0197063565ab937d30f92a9ed28545

Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
```
does not seem to be solving the problem. It only hides the
`POT-Creation` line from the `vim.pot` diff. Maybe a more elaborate
filter could be used - one that replaces lines numbers in `vim.pot` with
`xxxx`, thus removing the most annoying and useless part of the diff.
One downside is that it requires everyone to install such a filter
locally - it can not be part of the repo config, as far as I understand.

Problem: Crash when using inline diff mode
(Ilya Grigoriev)
Solution: Set tp_diffbuf to NULL when skipping a diff block
(Yee Cheng Chin).
Fix an array out of bounds crash when using diffopt+=inline:char when 4
or more buffers are being diff'ed. This happens when one of the blocks
is empty. The inline highlight logic skips using that buffer's block,
but when another buffer is used later and calls diff_read() to merge the
diff blocks together, it could erroneously consider the empty block's
diff info which has not been initialized, leaving to diff numbers that
are invalid. Later on the diff num is used without bounds checking which
leads to the crash.
Fix this by making sure to unset tp_diffbuf to NULL when we skip a
block, so diff_read() will not consider this buffer to be used within
inline diff. Also, add more bounds checking just to be safe.

Problem: close button "X" is visible in the non-GUI 'tabline', even
when the mouse is disabled
Solution: only show the button when 'mouse' contains any of the flags
"anvi" (Girish Palya)
The tabline always displays an "X" (close) button, and the info popup
shows both a close button and a resize handle—even when the mouse is
disabled. These UI elements are only actionable with the mouse and serve
no purpose for keyboard users who disable the mouse. Displaying
non-functional, clickable elements in a non-GUI environment is
misleading and adds unnecessary visual clutter.
So remove the close button and resize handle when the mouse is disabled.
They appear again when mouse is enabled.
