Restrict the definition of the `affixation-function`. The function
must return a list of three element lists. Since the
`affixation-function` is part of the widely used `completing-read` API
a simplification is helpful for both authors of completion UIs and
authors of completion tables.
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi: Update documentation.
* lisp/minibuffer.el: Update documentation.
* lisp/simple.el (read-extended-command--affixation):
Return three-element lists.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2021-04/msg01193.html
Preprocess the history (and the default) through the new function
`minibuffer--sort-preprocess-history` to filter out the completion
base for completion tables with boundaries (in particular the file
completion table).
* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer--sort-preprocess-history_: New function.
(completion-all-sorted-completions): Use it.
* test/lisp/minibuffer-tests.el (completion-all-sorted-completions):
Add tests for various combinations of with/without history/base/default.
Even for a trivial underlying completion table (where the 'boundaries'
action returns nil), we need to provide nontrivial boundaries so that
they match the behavior of 'all-completions'.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-table-subvert): Return boundaries
even for trivial underlying completion table.
* test/lisp/minibuffer-tests.el (completion-table-subvert-test):
Amend unit test to also test boundaries. While there, also test
the other completion functions.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-mode): New derived mode.
* src/minibuf.c (syms_of_minibuf): New DEFSYMs Qminibuffer_mode,
Qminibuffer_inactive_mode, Qminibuffer_completing_file_name,
Qselect_frame_set_input_focus, Qadd_to_history.
(read_minibuf, set_minibuffer_mode, read_minibuf_unwind): Use the new DEFSYMs
in place of continual interning.
(set_minibuffer_mode): Put an active minibuffer into minibuffer-mode rather
than fundamental-mode.
* doc/emacs/mini.texi (Minibuffer Edit): Mention minibuffer-mode.
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Intro to Minibuffers): Add a paragraph about
minibuffer-mode.
* etc/NEWS (Incompatible Lisp Changes in Emacs 28.1): Add an entry.
Even in the cases where it does not make much visible difference,
it brings the benefit of making the result deterministic.
* minibuffer.el (minibuffer--sort-by-length-alpha): New function.
(minibuffer--sort-by-position): New function extracted from
`completion-all-sorted-completions`.
(completion-all-sorted-completions): Use use them.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-all-sorted-completions): Use hash
table for sorting by history position, O(m+n*log(n)) instead of
O(m*n*log(n)) with history length `m` and candidate length `n`.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (exit-minibuffer): When in a minibuffer, throw an error
should the command loop nesting level be wrong.
* src/lisp.h (minibuffer_quit_level): declare as an extern.
(command_loop_level): Move definition from src/window.h
* src/window.h (command_loop_level): move definition to src/lisp.h.
* src/eval.c (minibuffer_quit_level): Move this variable to file level from
being a static inside internal_catch.
(internal_catch): Simplify the logic.
* src/minibuf.c (Vcommand_loop_level_list): New variable.
(move_minibuffer_onto_frame): Set the major mode of *Minibuf-0*.
(Fminibuffer_innermost_command_loop_p): New primitive.
(Fabort_minibuffers): Check the command loop level before throwing t to 'exit,
and set minibuffer_quit_level too.
(read_minibuf): New variable calling_window.
Before stacking up minibuffers on the current mini-window, check that the
mini-window is not the current one.
Do not call choose_minibuf_frame from read_minibuf's unwinding process.
Bind calling_frame and calling_window over the recursive edit.
Set the new minibuffer's major mode directly.
Remove the switching away from the minibuffer after the recursive edit.
(get_minibuffer): Record the command loop level in new variable
Vcommand_loop_level_list. No longer set the major mode of a returned
minibuffer.
(minibuf_c_loop_level): New function.
(read_minibuf_unwind): New variables calling_frame, calling_window are unbound
from the binding stack. Remove old variable `window', which could not be set
reliably to the expired mini-window.
The expired minibuffer is determined as the nth in the list, rather than the
contents of the current or previous mini-window.
Switch the current window away from the mini-window here (moved from
read_minibuf).
* lisp/minibuffer.el (exit-minibuffer): Throw the error "Not in most nested
minibuffer" only when the current buffer is a minibuffer (thus the command
came directly from a key binding).
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Minibuffer Commands): Change the documentation
accordingly.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion--insert-strings):
Don't add 'completions-annotations' face when the caller
specified own face in annotation-function.
Remove no-op code for 'unless prefix' branch.
(completion-metadata, completion-extra-properties):
Update docs of affixation-function.
Suggested by Clemens <clemera@posteo.net> (bug#45780)
* test/lisp/minibuffer-tests.el: Rename package name from
completion-tests.el to minibuffer-tests.el.
Add new test completion--insert-strings-faces.

annotation-function and affixation-function.
In particular, add a new value to the variable, and fix several bugs apparent
with the implementation up till now.

non-nil, non-t value of minibuffer-follows-selected-frame.

recursive minibuffers when typed in one which isn't the most nested.
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Intro to Minibuffers): Add an @dfn for "active
minibuffer".

invoked from the innermost Minibuffer.
(Recursive Mini): Amend the description of the visibility of outer level
minibuffers.
(Minibuffer Misc): In the description of the minibuffer hooks, replace "the
minibuffer" with "a minibuffer".

other things) minibuffer-follows-selected-frame is t.

when the throw currently being processed doesn't terminate the current
minibuffer.

(minibuf_level): extern declaration moved here from window.h.
* src/minibuf.c (minibuffer_follows_frame, minibuf_stays_put)
(minibuf_moves_frame_when_opened): New and amended functions to query the
value of minibuffer-follows-selected-frame.
(choose_minibuf_frame): check (minibuf > 1) in place of (minibufer > 0) at a
particular place. At another place, check that an alleged frame is so and is
live. Before selecting a non-miniwindow on a different frame, ensure it
really is a different frame.
(move_minibuffer_onto_frame): Stack up all recursive minibuffers on the target
frame. Check the minibuf_window isn't in the old frame before setting that
frame's miniwindow to an inactive minibuffer.
(Finnermost_minibuffer_p, Fabort_minibuffers): New primitives.
(this_minibuffer_depth): New function.
(read_minibuf): Record the calling frame in a variable, and switch back to it
after the recursive edit has terminated normally, using
select-frame-set-input-focus. Stack up all the recursive minibuffers on the
miniwindow where a new minibuffer is being opened. After the recursive edit,
switch the selected window away from the expired minibuffer's window.
(nth_minibuffer): New function.
(minibuffer-follows-selected-frame): Change from a DEFVAR_BOOL to a
DEFVAR_LISP.
* src/window.c (decode_next_window_args): Set *minibuf to w's mini-window's
content when that content is a minibuffer.
* src/window.h (minibuf_level) Declaration moved from here to lisp.h.

Use 'substring' completion style for 'xref-location' category by
default.
* lisp/progmodes/xref.el (xref-show-definitions-completing-read):
Assign the 'xref-location' category to the completions. Pass
REQUIRE-MATCH=t.
Fixes: bug#42149
The function completion-pcm--hilit-commonality, which propertizes and
scores a previously confirmed match, expected its PATTERN argument to
match the strings of COMPLETIONS entirely (i.e. up to the string's
very end). But sometimes the ending wildcard, represented by the
'any' atom in PATTERN, is optimized away by
completion-pcm--optimize-pattern. Although this is mostly benign in
terms of highlighting commonality, it leads to incorrect score values.
In this change, we ensure that completion-pcm--hilit-commonality is
aware of this exception and isn't affected by it. We also document
the function a bit better and simplify its workings.
