The old behaviour (e.g. via `set display-=msgsep`) will not be available.
Assuming that messages always are being drawn on msg_grid
(or not drawn at all, and forwarded to `ext_messages` enabled UI)
will allows some simplifcations and enhancements moving forward.

Avoids using `gui=reverse` on `VertSplit` and makes window separators
look much nicer by default.

Problem:    The Normal highlight is not defined when compiled with GUI.
Solution:   Always define Normal. (Christian Brabandt, closes vim/vim#4072)

* mode_spec: retry with increasing matchtime

`matchtime=2` might still be too low (with luacov on AppVeyor).

    [  ERROR   ] test/functional\ui\mode_spec.lua @ 47: ui mode_change event works in insert mode

    Passed in:

* ui/screen_basic_spec: set timeoutlen=10000

This fixes the test on slow CI.

Ref: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/neovim/neovim/builds/27600387/job/t468h2b3w9lwtlm5#L10930

But add an escape hatch needed for external TUI, so it still can use
terminal emulator defaults.

redraw_all_later() isn't guaranteed to update must_redraw after
switching tab, we must do it ourselves.
