This PR enables the use of incrementality for completion in tactic
blocks. Consider the following example:
```lean
example : True := by
have : True := T
sleep 10000
```
Before this PR, in order to respond to a completion request after `T`,
`sleep 10000` has to complete first since the command must be fully
elaborated. After this PR, the completion request is responded to
immediately.
Updates the user widget manual to account for more recent changes. One
issue is that the samples no longer work on https://live.lean-lang.org/
because it uses an outdated version of the `@leanprover/infoview` NPM
package. They work on https://lean.math.hhu.de/ and in recent versions
of the VSCode extension.
After each tactic step, we save the info tree created by it together
with an appropriate info tree context that makes it stand-alone (which
we already did before to some degree, see `Info.updateContext?`). Then,
in the adjusted request handlers, we first search for a snapshot task
containing the required position, if so wait on it, and if it yielded an
info tree, use it to answer the request, or else continue searching and
waiting, falling back to the full info tree, which should be unchanged
by this PR.
The definition header does *not* report info trees early as in general
it is not stand-alone in the tactic sense but may contain e.g.
metavariables solved by the body in which case we do want to show the
ultimate state as before. This could be refined in the future in case
there are no unsolved mvars.
The adjusted request handlers are exactly the ones waited on together by
the info view, so they all have to be adjusted to have any effect on the
UX. Further request handlers may be adjusted in the future.
No new tests as "replies early" is not something we can test with our
current framework but the existing test suite did help in uncovering
functional regressions.
Allows embedding user widgets in structured messages. Companion PR is
leanprover/vscode-lean4#449.
Some technical choices:
- The `MessageData.ofWidget` constructor might not be strictly necessary
as we already have `MessageData.ofFormatWithInfos`, and there is
`Info.ofUserWidget`. However, `.ofUserWidget` also requires a `Syntax`
object (as it is normally produced when widgets are saved at a piece of
syntax during elaboration) which we do not have in this case. More
generally, it continues to be a bit cursed that `Elab.Info` nodes are
used both for elaboration and delaboration (pretty-printing), so
entrenching that approach seems wrong. The better approach would be to
have a separate notion of pretty-printer annotation; but such a refactor
would not be clearly beneficial right now.
- To support non-JS-based environments such as
https://github.com/Julian/lean.nvim, `.ofWidget` requires also providing
another message which approximates the widget in a textual form.
However, in practice these environments might still want to support a
few specific user widgets such as "Try this".
