Problem:
In LSP configs, the function form of `cmd()` cannot easily get the
resolved root dir (workspace). One of the main use-cases of a dynamic
`cmd()` is to be able to start a new server whose binary may be located
*in the workspace* ([example](https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/pull/3912)).
Compare `reuse_client()`, which also receives the resolved config.
Solution:
Pass the resolved config to `cmd()`.

Replace direct function mappings with `<Plug>` mappings for cycling
through overloaded signatures, providing better customization options
for users. This change keeps the default mapping (`<C-s>`) for cycling
if `<Plug>(nvim.lsp.ctrl-s)` is not mapped.
Problem:
No way to check if a LSP config is enabled without causing it to
resolve. E.g. `vim.lsp.config['…'] ~= nil` will resolve the config,
which could be an unwanted and somewhat expensive side-effect.
Solution:
Introduce `vim.lsp.is_enabled()`.
- Add missing diagnostics virtual lines hl groups.
- Fix LSP dynamic registration example; curbuf may not actually be attached to
the client, and it may be attached to many such buffers.
- sort fields alphabetically.
- in the `vim.lsp.Client` docs, reference `vim.lsp.ClientConfig` instead
of duplicating its docs.
- cleanup lots of redundant-yet-drifted field docs.
Problem:
Some language servers do not work properly without a workspace folder.
Solution:
Add `workspace_required`, which skips starting the lsp client if no
workspace folder is found.

Problem: `trigger` is a custom word not yet used in APIs.
Solution: Use `get` instead because the main effect is that the
completion candidates will be collected (and shown by default,
but follow-up commits are planned to add an `on_result` callback
that allows more general handling).

Problem:
The root dir function is not passed any context and can only assume the
current buffer is the one being attached.
The main use case is for getting the path of the buffer using
`nvim_buf_get_name`.
Solution:
Pass the buffer number as the first argument.
Problem:
vim.lsp.completion with "autotrigger" enabled, does not send
completion context, even though it has all the necessary info.
Solution:
Include the context for "autotrigger".
trigger() also optionally accepts context when manually invoked.
Problem:
Descriptions are somewhat vague. nvim_set_current_line modifies contents
but nvim_set_current_buf does not, etc.
Solution:
- Make it clear that these functions accept or return a winid/tabid by
linking to that concept in help.
- Only these few files use the term "handles", so replace them with the
more conventional terminology.
- Add a new help section for tab-ID. This concept is unique to neovim
because vim exposes tabnr, but not tab handles. This section is
modelled after `:h winid`.
Problem: setting `loclist = true` makes `on_list` being ignored. This
was not a problem before, but with `vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol` using
`loclist = true` as default it is needed to explicitly pass `loclist =
false` in order to use custom `on_list`.
Solution: prefer `on_list` over `loclist` and document the latter as
taking effect only in the default handler.
Problem: Not able to open document symbols for different buffers
Solution: Use the location list as default.
To switch back to previous behavior (qflist):
vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol({ loclist = false })
Fixes: #31832
