[LSP] Add in more docs for highlight groups with document_highlight() (#13614)

Currently it's not 100% clear that without setting these, using the autocomds
to utilize the `textDocument/documentHighlight` functionality, nothing will
actually be visible since the highlight groups don't have any details. This
just adds in a couple simple extra notes to make sure that's done
