Problem: [security]: autocmd cause use-after-free in set_curbuf()
(kawarimidoll)
Solution: check side-effect of BufLeave autocommand, when the number
of windows changed, close windows containing buffers that will
be wiped, if curbuf changed unexpectedly make sure b_nwindows
is decremented otherwise it cannot be wiped
set_curbuf() already makes some efforts to ensure the BufLeave
autocommands do not cause issues. However there are still 2 issues
that are not taken care of:
1) If a BufLeave autocommand opens a new window containing the same
buffer as that is going got be closed in close_buffer() a bit later,
we suddenly have another window open, containing a free'd buffer. So we
must check if the number of windows changed and if it does (and the
current buffer is going to be wiped (according to the 'bufhidden'
setting), let's immediately close all windows containing the current
buffer using close_windows()
2) If a BufLeave autocommand changes our current buffer (displays it in
the current window), buf->b_nwindow will be incremented. As part of
set_curbuf() we will however enter another buffer soon, which means, the
newly created curbuf will have b_nwindows still have set, even so the
buffer is no longer displayed in a window. This causes later problems,
because it will no longer be possible to wipe such a buffer. So just
before entering the final buffer, check if the curbuf changed when
calling the BufLeave autocommand and if it does (and curbuf is still
valid), decrement curbuf->b_nwindows.
Both issues can be verified using the provided test (however the second
issue only because such an impacted buffer won't be wiped, causing
futher issues in later tests).

Problem: buffer-completion code too complicated and does not always
find all matches (irisjae)
Solution: do not try to anchor pattern to beginning of line or
directory-separator, always return all matches
Note: we are considering the non-fuzzy buffer-matching here.
Currently, the buffer-completion code makes 2 attempts to match a
pattern against the list of available patterns. First try is to match
the pattern and anchor it to either the beginning of the file name or
at a directory-separator (// or \\).
When a match is found, Vim returns the matching buffers and does not try
to find a match anywhere within a buffer name. So if you have opened two
buffers like /tmp/Foobar.c and /tmp/MyFoobar.c using `:b Foo` will only
complete to the first filename, but not the second (the same happens
with `getcompletion('Foo', 'buffer')`).
It may make sense, that completion priorities buffer names at directory
boundaries, but it inconsistent, may cause confusion why a certain
buffer name is not completed when typing `:b Foo<C-D>` which returns
only a single file name and then pressing Enter (to switch to that
buffer), Vim will error with 'E93: More than one match for Foo').
Similar things may happen when wiping the /tmp/Foobar.c pattern and
afterwards the completion starts completing other buffers.
So let's simplify the code and always match the pattern anywhere in the
buffer name, do not try to favor matches at directory boundaries. This
is also simplifies the code a bit, we do not need to run over the list
of buffers several times, but only twice.

Problem: E95 is possible if a buffer called "[Command Line]" already
exists when opening the cmdwin. This can also happen if the
cmdwin's buffer could not be deleted when closing.
Solution: Un-name the cmdwin buffer, and give it a special name instead,
similar to what's done for quickfix buffers and for unnamed
prompt and scratch buffers. As a result, BufFilePre/Post are
no longer fired when opening the cmdwin. Add a "command" key
to the dictionary returned by getbufinfo() to differentiate
the cmdwin buffer instead. (Sean Dewar)
NOTE: This is technically a breaking change... maybe this needs a different
solution? (Or maybe this issue can be ignored...)
A GitHub search reveals some plugins expect the old behaviour. However, many of
those plugins also do not seem to account for the string being translated, so
they are subtly broken anyway (not withstanding the fact that you can call any
old buffer "[Command Line]" too...)

Problem: is*() and to*() function may be unsafe
Solution: Add SAFE_* macros and start using those instead
(Keith Thompson)
Use SAFE_() macros for is*() and to*() functions
The standard is*() and to*() functions declared in <ctype.h> have
undefined behavior for negative arguments other than EOF. If plain char
is signed, passing an unchecked value from argv for from user input
to one of these functions has undefined behavior.
Solution: Add SAFE_*() macros that cast the argument to unsigned char.
Most implementations behave sanely for negative arguments, and most
character values in practice are non-negative, but it's still best
to avoid undefined behavior.
