Justin M. Keyes 18b43c331d refactor: rename vim.highlight => vim.hl 
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
  documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.

Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.

This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).

LSP DIAGNOSTICS
For each of the functions below, use the corresponding function in

- *vim.lsp.diagnostic.clear()* Use |vim.diagnostic.hide()| instead.

|vim.diagnostic.config()| and |vim.diagnostic.show()|.
- *vim.lsp.diagnostic.set_signs()*
- *vim.lsp.diagnostic.set_underline()*

LSP FUNCTIONS
- *vim.lsp.buf.server_ready()*
Use |LspAttach| instead, depending on your use-case. "Server ready" is not
part of the LSP spec, so the Nvim LSP client cannot meaningfully implement
it. "Ready" is ambiguous because:
- Language servers may finish analyzing the workspace, but edits can always
re-trigger analysis/builds.
- Language servers can serve some requests even while processing changes.
- *vim.lsp.buf.range_code_action()* Use |vim.lsp.buf.code_action()| with
the `range` parameter.
- *vim.lsp.util.diagnostics_to_items()* Use |vim.diagnostic.toqflist()| instead.

- *vim.lsp.util.set_loclist()* Use |setloclist()| instead.
- *vim.lsp.buf_get_clients()* Use |vim.lsp.get_clients()| with
{buffer=bufnr} instead.
- *vim.lsp.buf.formatting()* Use |vim.lsp.buf.format()| with
{async=true} instead.
- *vim.lsp.buf.formatting_sync()* Use |vim.lsp.buf.format()| with
{async=false} instead.
- *vim.lsp.buf.range_formatting()* Use |vim.lsp.formatexpr()|
or |vim.lsp.buf.format()| instead.
LUA
- vim.register_keystroke_callback() Use |vim.on_key()| instead.
NORMAL COMMANDS
- *]f* *[f* Same as "gf".
OPTIONS
- *cpo-<* *:menu-<special>* *:menu-special* *:map-<special>* *:map-special*
`<>` notation is always enabled.
- *'fe'* 'fenc'+'enc' before Vim 6.0; no longer used.
- *'highlight'* *'hl'* Names of builtin |highlight-groups| cannot be changed.
- *'langnoremap'* Deprecated alias to 'nolangremap'.
- 'sessionoptions' Flags "unix", "slash" are ignored and always enabled.
- *'vi'*
- 'viewoptions' Flags "unix", "slash" are ignored and always enabled.
- *'viminfo'* Deprecated alias to 'shada' option.
- *'viminfofile'* Deprecated alias to 'shadafile' option.
- *'paste'* *'nopaste'* Just Paste It.™ The 'paste' option is obsolete:
|paste| is handled automatically when you paste text
using your terminal's or GUI's paste feature
(CTRL-SHIFT-v, CMD-v (macOS), middle-click, …).
Enables "paste mode":
- Disables mappings in Insert, Cmdline mode.
- Disables abbreviations.
- Resets 'autoindent' 'expandtab' 'revins' 'ruler'
'showmatch' 'smartindent' 'smarttab' 'softtabstop'
'textwidth' 'wrapmargin'.
- Treats 'formatoptions' as empty.
- Disables the effect of these options:
- 'cindent'
- 'indentexpr'
- 'lisp'
UI EXTENSIONS
- *ui-wildmenu* Use |ui-cmdline| with |ui-popupmenu| instead. Enabled
by the `ext_wildmenu` |ui-option|. Emits these events:
- `["wildmenu_show", items]`
- `["wildmenu_select", selected]`
- `["wildmenu_hide"]`
- *term_background* Unused. The terminal background color is now detected
by the Nvim core directly instead of the TUI.
VARIABLES
- *b:terminal_job_pid* Use `jobpid(&channel)` instead.
- *b:terminal_job_id* Use `&channel` instead. To access in non-current buffer:
- Lua: `vim.bo[bufnr].channel`
- Vimscript: `getbufvar(bufnr, '&channel')`
