The row cache rebuilt a string for every line of the file after each edit
and had one production caller left (filetype detection in the ImGui
frontend, which needs only the first line). Removed with it: rows_,
nrows_, the dirty flag set on every edit, ensure_rows_cache and a mutex
guarding only that cache. Tests read lines with GetLineString, Nrows or,
where they compare every line, a test-only LinesForTests().

Undo/redo:
- cmd_newline recorded the undo node's position after the cursor moved past
the split point, so undoing Enter joined the wrong pair of lines.
- Backspace/Delete line-joins recorded UndoType::Newline, whose apply()
semantics are inverted for a join (forward=split); add UndoType::JoinLines
with correct forward/backward behavior.
- Regex replace-all, indent/unindent region, kill-to-eol, kill-line,
kill-region, and delete-word-prev/next mutated the buffer via the
no-undo-recording raw APIs; they now record undo, grouped atomically via a
shared UndoGroupGuard.
- Plain-text replace-all with an empty replacement advanced the scan
position one character too far, skipping adjacent/overlapping matches.
Crash recovery / memory safety:
- Buffer's move ctor/assignment never carried over swap_rec_,
on_disk_identity_, or the visual-line-mode fields, so the crash-recovery
journal silently stopped tracking a buffer whenever Editor's
std::vector<Buffer> reallocated or shifted (e.g. opening/closing files).
Added SwapManager::Rehome() plus Flush()-before-mutate in
Editor::AddBuffer/CloseBuffer so the journal's Buffer* key and the
background writer thread never reference a stale address.
- UndoTree leaked its entire node graph (including all edit text) on every
buffer close/reload; added ~UndoTree() to free it.
- main.cc didn't restore the terminal if an exception escaped the run loop;
added an RAII guard around Frontend::Shutdown().
Input handling:
- Terminal frontend used getch() instead of get_wch(), silently dropping
non-ASCII keyboard input despite linking wide-char ncurses.
- KKeymap's C-k lookup switches on an already-lowercased key, making
`case 'E'` unreachable dead code; C-k Shift-E silently aliased to C-k e.
- ImGui file picker wasn't modal: keystrokes typed while it was open still
reached the buffer underneath as edit commands, and Escape didn't close it.
- Gated ImGuiInputHandler's unconditional fprintf/fflush diagnostics behind
an IMGUI_IH_DEBUG macro, matching QtInputHandler's existing convention.
Syntax highlighting:
- Go/Rust/SQL highlighters weren't stateful, so multi-line /* */ comments
mis-highlighted as code starting on the second line.
- Python's triple-quoted-string handler didn't re-scan the remainder of a
line after a string closed mid-line, missing a same-line reopen.
- HighlighterEngine's state_last_contig_ field was declared but unused,
forcing an O(n) scan of state_cache_ on every stateful lookup; wired it up
as a real fast path and fixed InvalidateFrom() to keep it in sync.
- kge's :syntax off was silently undone the next frame because
apply_syntax_to_buffer() re-applied the config default unconditionally
every frame; added a user-override flag mirroring the existing
edit-mode-detection guard.
Added regression tests for all of the above (test_undo.cc, test_kkeymap.cc,
test_command_semantics.cc, test_search_replace_flow.cc, and a new
test_syntax_highlighting.cc). Full suite (163 tests) passes, including under
AddressSanitizer.
