+--- Restore a mapping from a dictionary, possibly returned by
+--- |maparg()| or |maplist()|. A buffer mapping, when dict.buffer

+--- to ensure that the intended buffer is the current buffer. This
+--- feature allows copying mappings from one buffer to another.
+--- The dict.mode value may restore a single mapping that covers
