bug#21333: 25.0.50; window-size-change-functions not called after mini-window resize

[Pip Cet]

This is possibly only a documentation issue.

Recipe: eval
(progn (push (lambda (&rest args) (message "window size changed"))
window-size-change-functions)
    (message (make-string 3000 ?*)))

Expected result: a "window size changed" message.

Actual result: no such message.


The symptom is that the window size change function is not run after a
mini-window size change.

So far, I can produce this behavior only when the minibuffer or echo
area grows to several lines; when it shrinks afterwards, my window size
change function is called. I cannot reproduce the behavior with other
windows.

Is this a bug? The documentation says:

    [...] to be called if the size of any window changes for any reason.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but when the minibuffer/echo area gets
resized (and the windows on top of it, too), that counts as a change of
size, I would say.

If this is merely a documentation issue, the exception should be noted
in the manual.


Analysis:
First, some warnings:
 - `window_resize_apply' and `Fwindow_resize_apply' (aka
   `window-resize-apply') are two different functions
 - `resize-mini-window' and `resize-mini-window-internal' are called
   only when the mini-window is explicitly resized by a Lisp call of
   `resize-mini-window'. Implicit resizes as a consequence of having
   too much text in the echo area do not appear to call it.

The problem is that FRAME_WINDOW_SIZES_CHANGED (f) is not set to true
after a mini-window resize. Fwindow_resize_apply would set this flag,
but window_resize_apply does not.

If this behavior is deliberate, I believe it is inconsistent to set
FRAME_WINDOW_SIZES_CHANGED (f) in `resize-mini-window-internal'.


Suggested solution:

Trivial. Add FRAME_WINDOW_SIZES_CHANGED (f) = true to all callers of
window_resize_apply.
