--- will be deleted by an API call, pass `ns_id = -1`.

+--- • "blend": blend with background text color. Not supported
+--- for "inline" virt_text.
+--- • virt_lines : virtual lines to add next to this mark This
+--- should be an array over lines, where each line in turn is an
+--- array over `[text, highlight]` tuples. In general, buffer
+--- and window options do not affect the display of the text. In
+--- particular 'wrap' and 'linebreak' options do not take
+--- effect, so the number of extra screen lines will always
+--- match the size of the array. However the 'tabstop' buffer
+--- option is still used for hard tabs. By default lines are
+--- placed below the buffer line containing the mark.
+--- • virt_lines_above: place virtual lines above instead.
+--- • virt_lines_leftcol: Place extmarks in the leftmost column of
+--- the window, bypassing sign and number columns.
+--- • ephemeral : for use with `nvim_set_decoration_provider()`
+--- callbacks. The mark will only be used for the current redraw
+--- cycle, and not be permantently stored in the buffer.
+--- • right_gravity : boolean that indicates the direction the
+--- extmark will be shifted in when new text is inserted (true
+--- for right, false for left). Defaults to true.
+--- • end_right_gravity : boolean that indicates the direction the
+--- extmark end position (if it exists) will be shifted in when
+--- new text is inserted (true for right, false for left).
+--- Defaults to false.
+--- • undo_restore : Restore the exact position of the mark if
+--- text around the mark was deleted and then restored by undo.
+--- Defaults to true.
+--- • invalidate : boolean that indicates whether to hide the
+--- extmark if the entirety of its range is deleted. For hidden
+--- marks, an "invalid" key is added to the "details" array of
+--- `nvim_buf_get_extmarks()` and family. If "undo_restore" is
+--- false, the extmark is deleted instead.
+--- • priority: a priority value for the highlight group, sign
+--- attribute or virtual text. For virtual text, item with
+--- highest priority is drawn last. For example treesitter
+--- highlighting uses a value of 100.
+--- • strict: boolean that indicates extmark should not be placed
+--- if the line or column value is past the end of the buffer or
+--- end of the line respectively. Defaults to true.
+--- • sign_text: string of length 1-2 used to display in the sign
+--- column.
+--- • sign_hl_group: name of the highlight group used to highlight
+--- the sign column text.
+--- • number_hl_group: name of the highlight group used to
+--- highlight the number column.
+--- • line_hl_group: name of the highlight group used to highlight
+--- the whole line.
+--- • cursorline_hl_group: name of the highlight group used to
+--- highlight the sign column text when the cursor is on the
+--- same line as the mark and 'cursorline' is enabled.
+--- • conceal: string which should be either empty or a single
+--- character. Enable concealing similar to `:syn-conceal`. When
+--- a character is supplied it is used as `:syn-cchar`.
+--- "hl_group" is used as highlight for the cchar if provided,
+--- otherwise it defaults to `hl-Conceal`.
+--- • spell: boolean indicating that spell checking should be
+--- performed within this extmark
+--- • ui_watched: boolean that indicates the mark should be drawn
+--- by a UI. When set, the UI will receive win_extmark events.
+--- Note: the mark is positioned by virt_text attributes. Can be
+--- used together with virt_text.
+--- • url: A URL to associate with this extmark. In the TUI, the
+--- OSC 8 control sequence is used to generate a clickable
+--- hyperlink to this URL.
+--- • scoped: boolean that indicates that the extmark should only
+--- be displayed in the namespace scope. (experimental)
