The classic mistake: Some of these have a bit of a delay, but it's supposed to
be *under* the timeout, so it needs to be *shorter* not longer to
increase the slack.
We just had the following output on Github Actions:
INPUT +0.94 ms (Line 34): echo ghi jkl
INPUT +0.72 ms (Line 35): \x1b
INPUT +63.12 ms (Line 37): t\r
The default escape delay is 30ms, that had 60ms between an escape and
a tab, so it missed it.
So: We have to increase the delay for CI's benefit. Let's try with
80ms, because otherwise we'd have to bump up other timeouts and the
bind tests take long enough as it is.
- clip.exe is used to copy to the Windows clipboard
- There's no binary for pasting from the Windows clipboard so
`Get-Clipboard` from powershell is used as a workaround. The
superflous carriage return is stripped from the output.
Github Action's macOS builds are even more resource-starved (even tho
they use the same provider?) than
Travis, but Travis is unusable to us now, so....
It may happen that the user types an abbreviation and then hits return.
Prior to this commit, we would perform a form of syntax highlighting
that does not require I/O, so as to not block the user. However this
could cause invalid commands to be colored as valid.
More generally if the user has e.g a slow NFS mount, then syntax
highlighting may lag behind the user's typing, and be incorrect at the
time the user hits return. This is an unavoidable race, since proper
syntax highlighting may take arbitrarily long.
Introduce a new function `finish_highlighting_before_exec`, which waits
for any outstanding syntax highlighting to complete, BUT has a timeout
(250 milliseconds). After this, it falls back to the no-I/O variant, which
colors all commands as valid and nothing as paths.

In some cases the completion we come up with may be unexpected, e.g.
if you have files like
/etc/realfile
and
/etc/wrongfile
and enter "/etc/gile", it will accept "wrongfile" because "g" and
"ile" are in there - it's a substring insertion match.
The underlying cause was a typo, so it should be easy to go back.
So we do a bit of magic and let "cancel" undo, but only right after a
completion was accepted via complete or complete-and-search.
That means that just reflexively pressing escape would, by default, get you back to
the old token and let you fix your mistake.
We don't do this when the completion was accepted via the pager,
because 1. there's more of a chance to see the problem there and 2.
it's harder to redo in that case.
Fixes#7433.
The builtin-buffering thing is huge and should be early in the big
ticket items, the performance improvement to completion of commands is
cool but not all that important.

Like Gold, it doesn't warn about sys_nerr, _sys_errlist, and co.
Unlike Gold, we can use this on all platforms. It's also faster than
both Gold and plain, old ld.
