Justin M. Keyes 40ce857797 fix(vim.ui)!: change open() to return result|nil, errmsg|nil #28612
reverts e0d92b9cc2 #28502

Problem:
`vim.ui.open()` has a `pcall()` like signature, under the assumption
that this is the Lua idiom for returning result-or-error. However, the
`result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern:
- has precedent in:
  - `io.open`
  - `vim.uv` (`:help luv-error-handling`)
- has these advantages:
  - Can be used with `assert()`:
    ```
    local result, err = assert(foobar())
    ```
  - Allows LuaLS to infer the type of `result`:
    ```
    local result, err = foobar()
    if err then
      ...
    elseif result then
      ...
    end
    ```

Solution:
- Revert to the `result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern.
- Document the pattern in our guidelines.
