fix(highlight): setting 'winhl' doesn't work with global ns (#37868)

Problem:  Setting 'winhighlight' doesn't after setting global namespace
          using nvim_win_set_hl_ns().
Solution: Check if using another namespace when setting 'winhighlight'
          instead of disabling 'winhighlight' in nvim_win_set_hl_ns().
(cherry picked from commit f8d59cfab9)
