When syntax propertization occurs inside narrowed area of a buffer,
the outside area sometimes doesn't get syntax propertization even after
the narrowing is removed.

[How to reproduce]
1. Save the attached sample file as /tmp/sample.sh
2. emacs -Q -geometry 80x25 /tmp/sample.sh
3. Type C-u C-n C-e to go to the end of the (visible) fourth line.
4. Type C-x C-e as the comment there instructs.
5. Then the face of here-doc bleeds over the "EOF" token and continues
   to the end of the buffer.
   Expected result is that the here-doc face ends at "EOF" and the rest
   of the buffer is fontified with various suitable faces.

[Analysis]
In the above example, `narrow-to-region' restricts the buffer into the
last three lines of Local Variables section where syntax propertization
is not yet done. There, `syntax-ppss' triggers syntax propertization and
set `syntax-propertize--done' to (point-max). But actually that
`syntax-ppss' didn't syntax-properize outside the narrowing so it didn't
give the suitable `syntax-table' property to the newline following the
"EOF". Since `syntax-propertize--done' tells emacs that all portion of
the buffer has been propertized already, emacs does not give the
suitable `syntax-table' property to the newline following the "EOF" even
after `widen'. Thus the fontification of here-doc continues beyond "EOF".

In a similar way, if a lisp function goes to the point where syntax
propertization has not yet took place, makes narrowing and calls some
syntax-aware function which sets `syntax-propertize--done' to a value
inside the narrowing, a large portion of the buffer can be left without
suitable `syntax-table' property. This can lead to incorrect result
for not only font-lock but also syntax-aware functions such as
`forward-comment'.

I suppose that this means that the code should call syntax-ppss (or
something like it) "before" narrowing is done, right?

Or call (syntax-ppss-flush-cache (point-min)) afterward.

> Hmm, then elisp programmers have to check whether each function used in the code uses narrowing+syntactic functions inside it if this kind of problem happens. I feel it a bit troublesome but at the same time I understand it is very difficult to solve this problem cleanly.

One has to be careful with narrowing. It's an old problem.
