Lewis Russell 65ef6fdaee build: replace LuaLS with EmmyLua
Problem: LuaLS struggles with the generics used in Nvim's runtime,
requiring broad diagnostic suppressions. Indexing is also slow.

Solution: Use EmmyLua for type checks in the build and CI. It offers
more sophisticated type checking, substantially better support for
generics, and much better flow analysis.

Correct the affected annotations. Use `@internal`, supported directly by
EmmyLua, instead of `@nodoc` for shared internal declarations, and
support it in the help parser.

--- A semaphore manages an internal permit counter. [Semaphore:acquire()]
--- consumes one permit and [Semaphore:release()] returns one permit. If no
--- permits are available, `acquire()` suspends the current task until another
--- task releases one.
---
--- The preferred way to use a Semaphore is with the `with()` method, which
--- automatically acquires and releases the semaphore around a function call.
--- This is useful for limiting sections that start external work and then
--- await it, such as file reads, requests, or subprocesses.

--- local async = vim.async
