The ellipsis literal (`...`) can be used in multiple contexts:
- Placeholders: `class Foo: ...`
- Containers: `Tuple[int, ...]`
- Assignments: `x = ...`
This is a trickier pattern to match because we can't rely on keyword
boundaries, so we instead look for exactly three dots (`...`).
This does mean that we will match the `...` portion of `x...x`, which
isn't valid Python syntax, but I think that's an acceptable trade-off
that avoids making this pattern much more complex.

This change does the following to the M4 syntax script:
- In M4 there are no "strings" in the usual sense. Instead, M4 has
quotes, but the text inside a quoted region is rescanned just like
outside, and quotes can be nested.
- The old m4String region was misleading and removed. A new m4Quoted
region reflects proper quoting semantics.
- Removed a duplicate highlight rule.
- Fixed a typo in a highlight group name (m4builtin → m4Builtin).
- Added a reference link to the POSIX M4 specification.
- Removed outdated maintainer URL.

No support is provided or planned for language recognition

Problem: completion: not possible to delay the autcompletion
Solution: add the 'autocompletedelay' option value (Girish Palya).
This patch introduces a new global option 'autocompletedelay'/'acl' that
specifies the delay, in milliseconds, before the autocomplete menu
appears after typing.
When set to a non-zero value, Vim waits for the specified time before
showing the completion popup, allowing users to reduce distraction from
rapid suggestion pop-ups or to fine-tune the responsiveness of
completion.
The default value is 0, which preserves the current immediate-popup
behavior.

Also, this pattern only matches at the beginning of the line, so it

And anticipate occasional multibyte line wrapping owing to:
> A poorly rendered line may otherwise become wrapped when enough of
> spurious U+FFFD (0xEF 0xBF 0xBD) characters claim more columns than
> are available (75) and then invalidate line correspondence under test.
Observe that for "vim_ex_command.vim" another workaround is
chosen: the long line containing an only multibyte character
near its EOL is conversely made longer by padding and moving
the character to a separate _tail_ part of the wrapped line.
That is, the _head_ part of the line is all ASCII characters
and the wrapped _tail_ part is a mix of various characters
whose total byte count is within bounds.
Other unmodified tracked files of interest:
java_lambda_expressions.java,
java_lambda_expressions_signature.java,
java_numbers.java,
markdown_conceal.markdown,
vim9_generic_function_example_set.vim
Also, remove stray U+FFFC (0xEF 0xBF 0xBC) characters.

replacement strings containing commands separated by line continuations.
Signed-off-by: Doug Kearns <dougkearns@gmail.com>
As reported in #16559, bytes of a multibyte character may
be written as separate U+FFFD characters in a ":terminal"
window on a busy machine. The testing facilities currently
offer an optional filtering step to be carried out between
reading and comparing the contents of two screendump files
for each such file. This filtering has been resorted to
(#14767 and #16560) in an attempt to unconditionally replace
known non-Latin-1 characters with an arbitrary substitute
ASCII character and avoid this rendering mishap leading to
syntax tests failures. However, it has been overlooked at
the time that metadata description (in shorthand) to follow
spurious U+FFFD characters may be *distinct* and make the
remainder of such a line, ASCII characters and whatnot, also
unequal between compared screendump files.
While it is straightforward to adapt current filter files to
ignore the line characters after the leftmost U+FFFD,
> It is challenging and error-prone to keep up to date filter

> likely make redundant some previously required filter files
> and, at the same time, it may require creating new filter
> files for the same source file; substituting one multibyte
> character for another multibyte character will also demand
> a coordinated change for filter files.
Besides, unconditionally dropping arbitrary parts of a line
is rather too blunt an instrument. An alternative approach
is to not use the supported filtering for this purpose; let
a syntax test pass or fail initially; then *if* the same
failure is imminent, drop the leftmost U+FFFD and the rest
of the previously seen line (repeating it for all previously
seen unequal lines) before another round of file contents
comparing. The obvious disadvantage with this filtering,
unconditional and otherwise, is that if there are consistent
failures for _other reasons_ and the unequal parts happen to
be after U+FFFDs, then spurious test passing can happen when
stars align for _a particular test runner_.
Hence syntax test authors should strive to write as little
significant text after multibyte characters as syntactically
permissible, write multibyte characters closer to EOL in
general, and make sure that their checked-in and published
"*.dump" files do not have any U+FFFDs.
It is also practical to refrain from attempting screendump
generation if U+FFFDs can already be discovered, and instead
try re-running from scratch the syntax test in hand, while
accepting other recently generated screendumps without going
through with new rounds of verification.
