fix(lsp): revert change to buf.clear_references() #24238

Problem: in #24046 the signature of buf.clear_references() changed, which
indirectly breaks callers that were passing "ignored" args.

Solution: because util.buf_clear_references() already defaulted to "current buffer",
the change to buf.clear_references() isn't actually needed, so just revert it.
