Do not wait for the user to press a key when there is some problem
with any of the history files. Just start and indicate the problem
on the status bar. The precise error message is stored and will be
shown on the terminal when exiting from nano.

The command can be used to run some kind of formatter or corrector or
arranging tool on the buffer. By default the command is bound to M-F.
The formatter/corrector/arranging program must be non-interactive.

When 'extendsyntax' is used with a 'header' or 'magic' command, it
must be processed immediately. It is pointless to store the command,
because when then it is processed (when the syntax gets used), it is
too late to have any effect.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56997.

Bug existed since version 4.3, commit cba9d8d0.
The 'tabgives' command is syntax-specific and should be followed by a
string containing the character(s) that a single press of the <Tab> key
should produce -- most likely a single TAB or a small bunch of spaces,
but any string is allowed. This overrides the 'tabstospaces' option.
When one wants to make sure <Tab> inserts always four spaces and never
a TAB when editing a Python file, one could add to one's nanorc:
extendsyntax python tabgives " "
where there are four spaces between the quotes. And when one wants
to ensure, when editing a Makefile, that <Tab> always inserts a TAB
and never spaces, independent of what tabstospaces is set to, one
could add to one's nanorc:
extendsyntax makefile tabgives " "
where there is a literal TAB character between the quotes.

So that in the error message the correct filename gets shown
instead of the name of the (first) include file.

When reporting a syntax without any color commands, show the line number
of the relevant 'syntax' command instead of the line number where the
emptiness is concluded, because the latter can be many lines later.

The previous commit saves and restores filename and linenumber for
each single included file (after globbing), so it is now redundant
to do it for each 'include' command.
For each included file, save and restore file name and line number of
the including file, so that an error message about a faulty 'include'
command can indicate the location of this 'include'.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56488.

Since commit 7028adf2 from three days ago, also the color commands of
syntaxes that are defined in a main nanorc will get parsed during a
second pass, so it is perfectly possible to extend such syntaxes
later on in the same (or another) nanorc file.
'opensyntax' is relevant only during the first pass through all the
nanorc files (intros_only == TRUE) when it is checked that syntax
commands are grouped properly and not mixed with others. And
'lastcolor' is relevant only during the second pass of a specific
syntax, because only then the color commands are actually parsed.
Whenever, in an rcfile, a command is encountered that is not part of a
syntax definition, a currently open syntax should be closed, but only
after checking that the syntax contains at least one color command.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56501.
Bug existed since version 2.3.3.
The 'color' commands of a syntax definition should not be allowed to
be interspersed with other, non-syntax commands.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56498.
Bug existed since before version 2.6.0.
As 'extendsyntax' commands are no longer interpreted immediately when
the rcfiles are read, there is no need to set 'opensyntax' to FALSE
after interpreting such a command -- for a single syntax they are all
interpreted in a row.
An included file can contain multiple syntaxes. If reading would stop
as soon as a command different from 'syntax' and 'header' and 'magic'
is found, any later syntaxes would not be seen. So each nanorc file
needs to be fully scanned -- it's just the interpretation of all the
color commands that we want to delay until the syntax gets actually
used.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56478.
Bug existed since commit cba9d8d0 from a month ago.
Instead of calling in twenty places parse_mbchar(pointer, NULL, NULL),
use a simpler and faster char_length(pointer). This saves pushing two
unneeded parameters onto the stack, avoids two needless ifs, and elides
an intermediate variable.
Its main purpose will follow in a later commit: to speed up searching.
When a syntax gets parsed, store the compiled color regexes right away,
instead of compiling them a second time in color_update().
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56432.

The /etc/nanorc file should not define any syntax directly (and
preferably not include any either, to not slow startup down with
syntaxes the user is never going to use), and if the ~/.nanorc file
defines a syntax directly, there is no need to use 'extendsyntax':
the command can be added to the syntax itself -- it would be better
even: it keeps things together.
Extending a syntax will be rather rare, so the amount of memory it
takes up will be minimal. It's not worth the trouble to free this
memory -- it only takes time. Plus: we don't bother to free the
memory of a syntax that gets fully redefined either.
When an included file has just been fully parsed, 'lastcolor' is still
pointing at the last color regex that was added to the list -- no need
to refind the end of this list.
