Problem: hard to view an existing buffer in the preview window
Solution: add the :pbuffer command (Yinzuo Jiang)
Similar as `:pedit` and `:buffer` command. `:pbuffer` edits buffer [N]
from the buffer list in the preview window.
`:pbuffer` can also open special buffer, for example terminal buffer.

Vim tries to determine the default background and checks for $TERM
and even checks for the "putty" value. But unfortunately, putty by
default uses "xterm" as $TERM value and as such Vim uses a "light"
background.
So use a TermResponse autocommand to set the background for putty back
to dark.
Note: this only works on non-tiny builds and when defaults.vim is in
use.

Problem: regex: wrong match when searching multi-byte char
case-insensitive (diffsetter)
Solution: Apply proper case-folding for characters and search-string
This patch does the following 4 things:
1) When the regexp engine compares two utf-8 codepoints case
insensitive it may match an adjacent character, because it assumes
it can step over as many bytes as the pattern contains.
This however is not necessarily true because of case-folding, a
multi-byte UTF-8 character can be considered equal to some
single-byte value.
Let's consider the pattern 'ſ' and the string 's'. When comparing and
ignoring case, the single character 's' matches, and since it matches
Vim will try to step over the match (by the amount of bytes of the
pattern), assuming that since it matches, the length of both strings is
the same.
However in that case, it should only step over the single byte value
's' by 1 byte and try to start matching after it again. So for the
backtracking engine we need to ensure:
* we try to match the correct length for the pattern and the text
* in case of a match, we step over it correctly
There is one tricky thing for the backtracing engine. We also need to
calculate correctly the number of bytes to compare the 2 different
utf-8 strings s1 and s2. So we will count the number of characters in
s1 that the byte len specified. Then we count the number of bytes to
step over the same number of characters in string s2 and then we can
correctly compare the 2 utf-8 strings.
2) A similar thing can happen for the NFA engine, when skipping to the
next character to test for a match. We are skipping over the regstart
pointer, however we do not consider the case that because of
case-folding we may need to adjust the number of bytes to skip over.
So this needs to be adjusted in find_match_text() as well.
3) A related issue turned out, when prog->match_text is actually empty.
In that case we should try to find the next match and skip this
condition.
4) When comparing characters using collections, we must also apply case
folding to each character in the collection and not just to the
current character from the search string. This doesn't apply to the
NFA engine, because internally it converts collections to branches
