vim-patch:8.2.3219: :find searches non-existing directories
Problem: :find searches non-existing directories. Solution: Check the path is not "..". Update help. (Christian Brabandt, closes vim/vim#8612, closes vim/vim#8533) https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/7a4ca32175bef0f9a177052796bd9addd10dc218 Change STRNCAT to STRLCAT as clint doesn't like the former. Include a typo fix from https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/2f0936cb9a2eb026acac03e6a8fd0b2a5d97508b#diff-7e9292cae1f2ba70dd5b17d2d162693a91044ada6ac99e9c3e8917f32878c097
