fix(api): validation, documentation of hl_group #31195

Problem:  Documentation for "hl_group" in nvim_buf_set_extmark() is
          unclear. "hl_group" in nvim_echo() does not accept
          highlight group id.
Solution: Move documentation for highlight group name/id to first
          mention of hl_group. Update nvim_echo() to accept highlight
          group id.
