nvim_buf_get_text is the mirror of nvim_buf_set_text. It differs from nvim_buf_get_lines in that it allows retrieving only portions of lines. While this can typically be done easily enough by API clients, implementing this function provides symmetry between the get/set text/lines APIs, and also provides a nice convenience that saves API clients the work of having to slice the result of nvim_buf_get_lines themselves.
