Would it be a good idea to deprecate 'number' and 'relativenumber' if
'linenumber' is introduced?
Could it be done by first introducing a warning "This setting will be
removed from future versions of Vim, please use 'linenumber' instead."
when 'nu' or 'rnu' is set and after some time actually removing the
settings? I can imagine that handling 'nu', 'rnu' and 'linenumber'
with their priorities in code is a huge PITA and a great possibility
of introducing bugs like the one you just fixed.
