fix(lsp): ensure buffers are re-attached on rename (#16266)

If a LSP server sent a workspace edit containing a rename the buffers
file name changed without the server receiving a close notification for
the old buffer and without the client properly re-attaching on the new
file.

This affected `Move` code-actions in nvim-jdtls, but also
`vim.lsp.buf.rename` on a class level.
