BRAM

On August 3, 2023, he passed away at the age of 62. If Vim or Nvim have
been of use to you in your life, read `:help Bram` and `:help Uganda`
and consider honoring his memory in a way you see fit.

CHANGES SINCE 0.9.1

BREAKING CHANGES

An adjustment was made to the `grid_line` event as part of the exernal
UI protocol the `cells` array might now end with a `[' ', attr, 0]` item
with a repeat count of zero. This is needed by the TUI to disambiguate
final spaces on a line from just clearing the line, which will make a
difference when copying text using the terminal emulators builtin
primary selection support.

External UI:s can safely ignore such an empty item and most UIs already
handle this fine. But it could break some UI:s which has an assert to
validate the cell count to be bigger than zero, or similar checks.

- tui: Support Super and Meta modifiers
