<id>364b7a3402634251a766c4a3a81117c296839e12</id>

Problem:

- annotation-usage-error and code-style-check are disabled.
- vim.inspect relies on a dummy self-assignment for docgen, and its help
  omits parameter and option details.
- LuaLS fallback types obscure iterator inference.
- Docgen hardcodes public function names and appends separately sorted
  files, leaving shared helpers under the inspector heading.

Solution:

- Enable annotation-usage-error and code-style-check, and fix misplaced
  annotations.
- Document vim.inspect's callable module directly, removing the dummy
  assignment. Describe its parameters, option defaults and process
  callback.
- Remove LuaLS iterator fallbacks, correct iterator signatures and check
  values that the improved inference identifies as optional.
- Parse callable modules, require bindings and parent module references.
  Derive public names and inherited function docs from these links,
  including missing help for vim.async.semaphore() and vim.version().
- Export vim.lsp.tagfunc directly with lazy loading and document its
  implementation instead of maintaining a wrapper.
- Group files in section_order, replacing append_only and merge_files.
  Merge declarations before sorting each section, placing shared helpers
  in the main vim section and keeping vim.inspect in alphabetical order.
- Add basic parser coverage for callable modules and module links.

Return-cast annotations refine types but do not add return values.
Recognize them before @return and exclude them from rendered docs. Apply
narrowing to vim.isnil() without changing its runtime behavior.

<title>build: replace LuaLS with EmmyLua</title>

Problem: LuaLS struggles with the generics used in Nvim's runtime,
requiring broad diagnostic suppressions. Indexing is also slow.

Solution: Use EmmyLua for type checks in the build and CI. It offers
more sophisticated type checking, substantially better support for
generics, and much better flow analysis.

Correct the affected annotations. Use `@internal`, supported directly by
EmmyLua, instead of `@nodoc` for shared internal declarations, and
support it in the help parser.

<title>test(harness): migrate away from magic globals</title>

<id>6d8c8b18d551d0be0490640c00fabb816727ec10</id>

Problem:
The magic globals `it`, `describe`, etc., are more trouble than they are
worth.

- Hooking into `after_each` requires `getfenv()` hacks.
- They confuse luals/emmylua, because the top-level `.luarc.json` isn't
  merged with `test/.luarc.json` (apparently a luals limitation?)
- They totally defeat discoverability because the user just has to
  "know" about the various magic symbols.

So they harm DX, which means they serve no purpose at all.

Solution:
- Expose the test API from `testutil`, so tests can call `t.it()`,
  `t.describe()`, etc., in the conventional way.
- Drop `getfenv()` hacks.
- Drop the `setfenv()` injection in `load_chunk`.
- Drop `test/_meta.lua`.

<title>build: move all generator scripts to `src/gen/`</title>

- Move all generator Lua scripts to the `src/gen/`
- Add a `.luarc.json` to `src/gen/`
- Add a `preload.lua` to `src/gen/`
  - Add `src` to `package.path` so it aligns with `.luarc.json'
- Fix all `require` statements in `src/gen/` so they are consistent:
    - `require('scripts.foo')` -&gt; `require('gen.foo')`
    - `require('src.nvim.options')` -&gt; `require('nvim.options')`
    - `require('api.dispatch_deprecated')` -&gt; `require('nvim.api.dispatch_deprecated')`

Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.

Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
