Problem: tabpanel: no Vim script functions for the tabpanel
Solution: Add tabpanel_getinfo() and tabpanel_scroll()
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
tabpanel_getinfo() returns a dict describing the tabpanel (align,
columns, scrollbar, offset, total, max_offset).
tabpanel_scroll(n) scrolls the tabpanel by n rows (positive for
down, negative for up). With {absolute: 1} the argument is used as
the new absolute offset instead of a delta. The offset is clamped to
the valid range; returns true when it actually changes.

Problem: cannot style non-current window separator
Solution: Add the VertSplitNC highlighting group
(Hirohito Higashi).
Add VertSplitNC highlight group for vertical separators of non-current
windows, similar to StatusLine/StatusLineNC distinction. The separator
adjacent to the current window uses VertSplit, others use VertSplitNC.
Default: linked to VertSplit.
At the current window's status line rows, the separator cell is drawn as
a space with the StatusLine highlight so it blends into the status line
without a stray fillchar glyph.
Also:
- :redrawstatus[!] now also redraws vertical separators.
- statusline height changes trigger vsep redraw.

Problem: Vim can only act as a channel client (ch_open). There is
no way for an external process to initiate a connection
to a running Vim instance using the Channel API.
Solution: Implement ch_listen() and the underlying server-side
socket logic. This allows Vim to listen on a port or
Unix domain socket. When a client connects, a new
channel is automatically created and passed to a
user-defined callback (Yasuhiro Matsumoto).

Problem: completion: complete_match() Vim script function and
'isexpand' option are not that useful and confusing
(after v9.1.1341)
Solution: Remove function and option and clean up code and documentation
(Girish Palya).
complete_match() and 'isexpand' add no real functionality to Vim. They
duplicate what `strridx()` already does, yet pretend to be part of the
completion system. They have nothing to do with the completion mechanism.
* `f_complete_match()` in `insexpand.c` does not call any completion code.
It’s just a `STRNCMP()` wrapper with fluff logic.
* `'isexpand'` exists only as a proxy argument to that function.
It does nothing on its own and amounts to misuse of a new option.
The following Vim script function can be used to implement the same
functionality:
```vim
func CompleteMatch(triggers, sep=',')
let line = getline('.')->strpart(0, col('.') - 1)
let result = []
for trig in split(a:triggers, a:sep)
let idx = strridx(line, trig)
if l:idx >= 0
call add(result, [idx + 1, trig])
endif
endfor
return result
endfunc

Problem: not possible to style popup borders globally
Solution: Add the 'pumborder' option (Girish Palya)
This commit introduces a new global option, 'pumborder' ('pb'), that
allows users to define borders and optional decorations for the
completion popup menu.
```
Defines a border and optional decorations for the popup menu in
completion. The value is a comma-separated list of keywords.
Border styles (at most one):
"single"singleuse thin box-drawing characters
"double"doubleuse double-line box-drawing characters
"round"rounduse rounded corners
"ascii"asciiuse ASCII characters (-, |, +)
"custom:XXXXXXXX"
use eight characters given after "custom:",
in order: top, right, bottom, left,
topleft, topright, botright, botleft
Additional flags:
"margin"marginadds one-cell spacing inside the left and right border
"shadow"shadowdraws a shadow at the right and bottom edges
Highlight groups:
|hl-PmenuBorder|hl-PmenuBorderused for the border characters
|hl-PmenuShadow|hl-PmenuShadowused for the shadow
Examples: >
:set pumborder=single
:set pumborder=double,margin,shadow
:set pumborder=custom:─│─│┌┐┘└,shadow
Border styles using box-drawing characters ("single", "double",
"round") are only available when |'encoding'| is "utf-8" and
|'ambiwidth'| is "single". "margin" requires a border style.
See also: |ins-completion-menu|.
