docs(lua): more improvements (#24387)
* docs(lua): teach lua2dox how to table

* docs(lua): teach gen_vimdoc.py about local functions

No more need to mark local functions with @private

* docs(lua): mention @nodoc and @meta in dev-lua-doc

* fixup!

---@defgroup vim.highlight
---
---@brief
---Nvim includes a function for highlighting a selection on yank.
---
---To enable it, add the following to your `init.vim`:
---<pre>vim
--- au TextYankPost * silent! lua vim.highlight.on_yank()
---</pre>
---
---You can customize the highlight group and the duration of
---the highlight via:
---<pre>vim
--- au TextYankPost * silent! lua vim.highlight.on_yank {higroup="IncSearch", timeout=150}
---</pre>
---
---If you want to exclude visual selections from highlighting on yank, use:
---<pre>vim
--- au TextYankPost * silent! lua vim.highlight.on_yank {on_visual=false}
---</pre>
local api = vim.api
local M = {}
--- Table with default priorities used for highlighting:
--- - `syntax`: `50`, used for standard syntax highlighting
--- - `treesitter`: `100`, used for tree-sitter-based highlighting
--- - `semantic_tokens`: `125`, used for LSP semantic token highlighting
--- - `diagnostics`: `150`, used for code analysis such as diagnostics
--- - `user`: `200`, used for user-triggered highlights such as LSP document
--- symbols or `on_yank` autocommands

---@param start integer[]|string Start of region as a (line, column) tuple or string accepted by |getpos()|
---@param finish integer[]|string End of region as a (line, column) tuple or string accepted by |getpos()|
---@param opts table|nil Optional parameters
--- - regtype type of range (see |setreg()|, default charwise)
--- - inclusive boolean indicating whether the range is end-inclusive (default false)
--- - priority number indicating priority of highlight (default priorities.user)
