This fixes a discrepancy between regular registers which are used for
yanking multiple values (for example via `"ay`) and regular registers
that store a history of values (for example `"a*`).
Previously, the preview shown in `select_register`'s infobox would show
the oldest value in history. It's intuitive and useful to see the most
recent value pushed to the history though.
We cannot simply switch the preview line from `values.first()`
to `values.last()`: that would fix the preview for registers
used for history but break the preview for registers used to yank
multiple values. We could push to the beginning of the values with
`Registers::push` but this is wasteful from a performance perspective.
Instead we can have `Registers::read` return an iterator that
returns elements in the reverse order and reverse the values in
`Register::write`. This effectively means that `push` adds elements to
the beginning of the register's values. For the sake of the preview, we
can switch to `values.last()` and that is then correct for both usage-
styles. This also needs a change to call-sites that read the latest
history value to switch from `last` to `first`.
This is an unfortunately noisy change: we need to update virtually all
callsites that access the registers. For reads this means passing in the
Editor and for writes this means handling potential failure when we
can't write to a clipboard register.
This removes a handful of allocations for functions calling into the
function, which is nice because the prompt may call this function on
every keypress.
Pascal and I discussed this and we think it's generally better to
take a 'RopeSlice' rather than a '&Rope'. The code block rendering
function in the markdown component module is a good example for how
this can be useful: we can remove an allocation of a rope and instead
directly turn a '&str' into a 'RopeSlice' which is very cheap.
A change to prefer 'RopeSlice' to '&Rope' whenever the rope isn't
modified would be nice, but it would be a very large diff (around 500+
500-). Starting off with just the syntax functions seems like a nice
middle-ground, and we can remove a Rope allocation because of it.

Since regex is almost always injected into other languages,
`pattern_character`s will inherit the highlight for the structure that
injects them (for example `/foo/` in JavaScript or `~r/foo/` in Elixir).
This removes the string highlight when used in the prompt.
We also add `ERROR` node highlighting so that errors in regex syntax
appear in the prompt. This resolves a TODO in the `regex_prompt`
function about highlighting errors in the regex.
We can use tree-sitter-regex highlighting in prompts for entering
regexes, like `search` or `global_search`. The `highlighted_code_block`
function from the markdown component makes this a very small change.
This could be improved in the future by leaving the parsed syntax tree
on the prompt, allowing incremental updates. Prompt lines are usually so
short though and tree-sitter-regex is rather small and uncomplicated,
so that improvement probably wouldn't make a big difference.
Merges the code for the Picker and FilePicker into a single Picker that
can show a file preview if a preview callback is provided. This change
was mainly made to facilitate refactoring out a simple skeleton of a
picker that does not do any filtering to be reused in a normal Picker
and a DynamicPicker (see #5714; in particular [mikes-comment] and
[gokuls-comment]).
The crux of the issue is that a picker maintains a list of predefined
options (eg. list of files in the directory) and (re-)filters them every
time the picker prompt changes, while a dynamic picker (eg. interactive
global search, #4687) recalculates the full list of options on every
prompt change. Using a filtering picker to drive a dynamic picker hence
does duplicate work of filtering thousands of matches for no reason. It
could also cause problems like interfering with the regex pattern in the
global search.
I tried to directly extract a PickerBase to be reused in Picker and
FilePicker and DynamicPicker, but the problem is that DynamicPicker is
actually a DynamicFilePicker (i.e. it can preview file contents) which
means we would need PickerBase, Picker, FilePicker, DynamicPicker and
DynamicFilePicker and then another way of sharing the previewing code
between a FilePicker and a DynamicFilePicker. By merging Picker and
FilePicker into Picker, we only need PickerBase, Picker and
DynamicPicker.

Previously the register selection (via `"`) would be lost in the middle
of any key sequence longer than one key. For example, `<space>f` would
clear the register selection after the `<space>` making it inaccessible
for the `file_picker` command.
This behavior does not currently have any effect in the default keymap
but might affect custom keymaps. This change aligns the behavior of the
register with count. Making this change allows propagating the register
to the `command_palette` (see the child commit) or other pickers should
we decide to use registers in those in the future. (Interactive global
search for example.)
* chore: avoid format! call with argument when useless
* feat: also clear diagnostics for unopened documents when exiting an LSP
* feat: we already worked on `self.editor.diagnostics` no need to redo the checks
* Add `helix_lsp::client::Client::supports_feature(&self, LanguageServerFeature)`
* Extend `doc.language_servers_with_feature` to use this method as filter as well
* Add macro `language_server_with_feature!` to reduce boilerplate for non-mergeable language server requests (like goto-definition)
* Refactored most of the `find_map` code to use the either the macro or filter directly via `doc.language_servers_with_feature`
Language Servers are now configured in a separate table in `languages.toml`:
```toml
[langauge-server.mylang-lsp]
command = "mylang-lsp"
args = ["--stdio"]
config = { provideFormatter = true }
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier]
command = "efm-langserver"
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier.config]
documentFormatting = true
languages = { typescript = [ { formatCommand ="prettier --stdin-filepath ${INPUT}", formatStdin = true } ] }
```
The language server for a language is configured like this (`typescript-language-server` is configured by default):
```toml
[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "efm-lsp-prettier", only-features = [ "format" ] }, "typescript-language-server" ]
```
or equivalent:
```toml
[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "typescript-language-server", except-features = [ "format" ] }, "efm-lsp-prettier" ]
```
Each requested LSP feature is priorized in the order of the `language-servers` array.
For example the first `goto-definition` supported language server (in this case `typescript-language-server`) will be taken for the relevant LSP request (command `goto_definition`).
If no `except-features` or `only-features` is given all features for the language server are enabled, as long as the language server supports these. If it doesn't the next language server which supports the feature is tried.
The list of supported features are:
- `format`
- `goto-definition`
- `goto-declaration`
- `goto-type-definition`
- `goto-reference`
- `goto-implementation`
- `signature-help`
- `hover`
- `document-highlight`
- `completion`
- `code-action`
- `workspace-command`
- `document-symbols`
- `workspace-symbols`
- `diagnostics`
- `rename-symbol`
- `inlay-hints`
Another side-effect/difference that comes with this PR, is that only one language server instance is started if different languages use the same language server.
