feat(userregfunc): programmable user-defined registers with multibyte support
This patch introduces a new global option `userregfunc`, allowing users to define custom behavior for registers not handled by Neovim internally. This enables programmable registers using any Unicode character — including multibyte characters. - A new register slot `USER_REGISTER` is introduced. Any register not matching the standard set (`0-9a-zA-Z"+-*%#/:.=`, etc.) is routed through this system. - When such a register is accessed, the function defined in `userregfunc` is called with three arguments: 1. `{action}` (string): either `"yank"` or `"put"` 2. `{register}` (string): UTF-8 character name of the register 3. `{content}`: - If `action == "yank"`: a dictionary with these keys: - `lines` (list of strings): the yanked text - `type` (string): one of `"v"` (charwise), `"V"` (linewise), or `"b"` (blockwise) - `width` (number, optional): present if `type == "b"` - `additional_data` (dict, optional): user-extensible metadata - If `action == "put"`: this is always `v:null` - The function may return either: - A **string** (used as a charwise register), or - A **dictionary** matching the structure above - Internally, `read_userregister()` and `write_userregister()` convert between `yankreg_T` and typval dictionaries. - Messages and internal logic fully support multibyte register names via UTF-8. - A new `USER_REGISTER` slot is used for logical separation in the register table. Included in this patch is an extensible Lua framework (`vim.userregs`) for defining user register handlers in Lua. It provides per-register handlers via `register_handler(registers, handler)` The global function `_G.def_userreg_func` is registered as the default implementation of `'userregfunc'`, enabling seamless integration with the Lua framework. - Register `λ` dynamically inserts the current date - Register `&` reads and writes from a "global register" file under `stdpath("run")` - Register `?` returns the result of a shell command - Registers that auto-adjust based on filetype, cursor context, or Treesitter nodes This change expands the register model into a programmable abstraction — fully scriptable and extensible — without breaking compatibility.
