When pasting many words with <a-p> we can end-up with a huge
concatenated word and many selections, the previous code ended
up iterating from each selection cursor to that word start and
end to find the word under the cursor.
This could lead to performance issue as each selection would
trigger iteration on that huge word. This is unnecessary as
word completion has a word length limit, so we now take it into
account to avoid iterating to far from the cursor position.
The previous code was advancing from the general insertion point
for all selection, instead of iterating only once from insertion
point until the end of inserted text.
0 means stdin was closed, this is quite unexpected as we would usually
get a SIGHUP, but it looks like in some rare case this happens and
it leads to an infinite loop trying to handle stdin events (as it
will always be readable from now on).

Previously, Kakoune only handled ctrl-codes less than 27, representing them as
lower-case ASCII codes. For regular keys like <c-a>, that worked fine. However,
NUL became the unorthodox <c-`> and other ctrl-symbols (<c-\>, <c-]>, <c-_>)
weren't supported at all.
Now NUL is rendered as the more comfortable <c-space>, and the other ctrl-symbol
codes are properly decoded.
Fixes#2553.
`-atomic` becomes `-method replace` and `-method overwrite` is now
supported explicitely instead of only available through the
writemethod option.
Fixes#3827
Giving an explicit register uses its content for the default value
to use if the user does not enter anything. This enables:
`set-register a %{commands}; execute-keys '"a:<ret>'`
`set-register a %{shell script}; execute-keys '"a|<ret>'`
...
This provides a nice way to avoid the need to escape keys to use
those normal mode commands.
Fixes#3825
This avoids a frustrating behaviour where Kakoune autoinserts the first
command name when hitting <space> after a ; in a command line. It also
fixes the empty prompt case that was auto-completed instead of executing
the default command.
The menu flag signifies that only the completions are valid arguments,
hence it makes sense to auto insert the best one on space.
Because full match is always considered the best match in completion
ranking, this should always have a reasonable behaviour.
This makes it harder to enter a hidden command, but completion can
always be disabled via <c-o> or by quoting in those rare cases.
Because no flags were set for regex matching, the regex engine was
assuming that the subject string past-the-end matched a end-of-line.
As the subject string already ended with a \n character, the regex
engine processing of the "past-the-end" position would match '^$'
as ^ matched past the existing \n and $ matched the assumed
end-of-line.
Fixes#3799
Previously we would just bypass that hook making it impossible to
act on the inserted text when triggering an explicit completion after
inserting text from the previous completer.
This one has been a long time coming, I am still concerned this could
impact performance a lot. This hook does *not* trigger for capture
registers (0-9) or any other dynamic registers (that are not writable).

Only include the value for int/str/bool options, for the rest just
write '<option name>=...'.
This should reduce the cost of some patterns such as repeatedly adding
a value inside a list option.
It seems very unlikely that the actual value would be matched by
a hook regex string for non primitive types.
Similarly to the <semicolon> key, make it easier to write
`:execute-keys` commands by replacing <percent> with `%`.
Highlighters can keep escaping the sign when regular expressions are
not quoted, but built-in scripts that use `%` as an editing primitive
have been modified to use the named key, for clarity.
Ranges specified with a +<length> were inconsistent, with +0 meaning
an empty range, while +1 meant a two character long range (first character
+ the following one). Change that to mean a single character.
Fixes#3479
