bug: `vim.fn.win_execute(win, 'normal zx')` does nothing

[MagicDuck]

Did you check docs and existing issues?

• [X] I have read all the which-key.nvim docs
• [X] I have updated the plugin to the latest version before submitting this issue
• [X] I have searched the existing issues of which-key.nvim
• [X] I have searched the existing issues of plugins related to this issue

Neovim version (nvim -v)

0.10.0

Operating system/version

MacOS 14.6.1

Describe the bug

This appears to be a regression with V3 which-key version. In previous versions, vim.fn.win_execute(win, 'normal zx') would work. It also works if I completely comment out which-key plugin setup.

Steps To Reproduce

1. create 2 splits
2. in one of them, run =vim.fn.win_getid() to get the window id, ex result: 1067
3. select some lines and create a fold with zf
4. open the fold with zo
5. move cursor a few lines down, outside of the folded lines
6. enter insert mode
7. move to the other split (without exiting insert mode in the previous one) and enter :lua vim.fn.win_execute(1067, 'normal zx')

Notice that nothing happens. If you instead do other things like :lua vim.fn.win_execute(1067, 'normal 5j') that works!

Expected Behavior

the fold should collapse. As it does if you execute zx in normal mode from the first window.

        },
      })

Note, in case it helps debug the issue, this works as a workaround but has the side effect of cursor flickering if calculating folds for lots of lines:

    local currentWin = vim.api.nvim_get_current_win()
    vim.api.nvim_set_current_win(win)

    vim.api.nvim_feedkeys(
      -- note: if in insert mode, <C-\><C-o> does a normal mode command without moving cursor
      -- see help ins-special-special
      vim.api.nvim_replace_termcodes('<c-\\><c-o><cmd>normal zx<cr>', true, false, true),
      'n',
      false
    )
    vim.api.nvim_set_current_win(currentWin)

I've also tried using vim._foldupdate(win, start, end) as a workaround but it seems to do nothing...

note that this affects grug-far.nvim plugin. This line: https://github.com/MagicDuck/grug-far.nvim/blob/ebab68b2150079732ae8074eefb261a124824139/lua/grug-far/fold.lua#L18 Workaround is to pass the following to wk.setup():

        disable = {
          ft = { 'grug-far' },
        },
