fix(vim.ui)!: change open() to return result|nil, errmsg|nil #28612
reverts e0d92b9cc2 #28502

Problem:
`vim.ui.open()` has a `pcall()` like signature, under the assumption
that this is the Lua idiom for returning result-or-error. However, the
`result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern:
- has precedent in:
  - `io.open`
  - `vim.uv` (`:help luv-error-handling`)
- has these advantages:
  - Can be used with `assert()`:
    ```
    local result, err = assert(foobar())
    ```
  - Allows LuaLS to infer the type of `result`:
    ```
    local result, err = foobar()
    if err then
      ...
    elseif result then
      ...
    end
    ```

Solution:
- Revert to the `result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern.
- Document the pattern in our guidelines.

--- Prompts the user to pick from a list of items, allowing arbitrary (potentially asynchronous)

---
--- Example:
---
--- ```lua
--- vim.ui.select({ 'tabs', 'spaces' }, {
--- prompt = 'Select tabs or spaces:',
--- format_item = function(item)
--- return "I'd like to choose " .. item

---@param items any[] Arbitrary items
---@param opts table Additional options
--- - prompt (string|nil)
--- Text of the prompt. Defaults to `Select one of:`
--- - format_item (function item -> text)
--- Function to format an
--- individual item from `items`. Defaults to `tostring`.
--- - kind (string|nil)
--- Arbitrary hint string indicating the item shape.
--- Plugins reimplementing `vim.ui.select` may wish to
--- use this to infer the structure or semantics of
--- `items`, or the context in which select() was called.
---@param on_choice fun(item: any|nil, idx: integer|nil)
--- Called once the user made a choice.
--- `idx` is the 1-based index of `item` within `items`.
--- `nil` if the user aborted the dialog.

--- - prompt (string|nil)
--- Text of the prompt
--- - default (string|nil)
--- Default reply to the input
--- - completion (string|nil)
--- Specifies type of completion supported
--- for input. Supported types are the same
--- that can be supplied to a user-defined
--- command using the "-complete=" argument.
--- See |:command-completion|
--- - highlight (function)
--- Function that will be used for highlighting
--- user inputs.
---@param on_confirm function ((input|nil) -> ())
--- Called once the user confirms or abort the input.
--- `input` is what the user typed (it might be
--- an empty string if nothing was entered), or
--- `nil` if the user aborted the dialog.
