Problem: Existing cmdline completion for :highlight was barebone and
only completed the highlight group names.
Solution: Implement full completion for the highlight group arguments
such as guifg and cterm. If the user tries to complete
immediately after the '=' (e.g. `hi Normal guifg=<Tab>`), the
completion will fill in the existing value, similar to how
cmdline completion for options work (Yee Cheng Chin).

Problem: enabling termguicolors automatically confuses users. Since
querying the terminal for the RGB flag happens asynchronously,
enabling termguicolors is noticeable by users as the highlighting changes
and is therefore unexpected.
(after v9.1.1054)
Solution: comment out that part for now. We may need another way to
enable this in the future.

Problem: Unable to persistently ignore events in a window and its buffers.
Solution: Add 'eventignorewin' option to ignore events in a window and buffer
(Luuk van Baal)
Add the window-local 'eventignorewin' option that is analogous to
'eventignore', but applies to a certain window and its buffers. Identify
events that should be allowed in 'eventignorewin', adapt "auto_event"
and "event_tab" to encode this information. Window context is not passed
onto apply_autocmds_group(), and when to ignore an event is a bit
ambiguous when "buf" is not "curbuf", rather than a large refactor, only
ignore an event when all windows into "buf" are ignoring the event.

Problem: Vim doesn't work well with TERM=xterm-direct
(Andrea Pappacoda)
Solution: detect if a terminal supports true-colors and
enable termguicolors
The terminfo database for xterm-direct contains both the (non-standard)
termcap RGB capability and a number of colors == 0x1000000 so it seems
either of those two options can be used to detect a terminal capable of
displaying true colors.
So set the termguicolor option automatically, when either of the two
options is detected. (for some reasons, my debian xterm (v393) does not
respond to XTGETTCAP query attempts, so falling back to the number of
colors seems like a good compromize)

Problem: insert-completed items are always sorted, although the LSP
spec[1] standard defines sortText in the returned
completionitem list. This means that the server has sorted the
results. When fuzzy is enabled, this will break the server's
sorting results.
Solution: disable sorting of candidates when "nosort" is set in
'completeopt'

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.
