The following changes may require adaptations in user config or plugins.
+• |vim.tbl_islist()| now checks whether a table is actually list-like (i.e.,
+ has integer keys without gaps and starting from 1). For the previous
+ behavior (only check for integer keys, allow gaps or not starting with 1),
+ use |vim.tbl_isarray()|.

• "#" followed by a digit no longer stands for a function key at the start of
the lhs of a mapping.
