vim-patch:8.0.0255: setpos() does not use the buffer argument for all marks
Problem: When calling setpos() with a buffer argument it often is ignored. (Matthew Malcomson) Solution: Make the buffer argument work for all marks local to a buffer. (neovim vim/vim#5713) Add more tests. https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/f13e00b2cf381e13fd327b5387a5bd6f004ac2a3
