feat(treesitter)!: don't parse tree in get_parser() or start()
**Problem:** `vim.treesitter.get_parser()` and `vim.treesitter.start()` both parse the tree before returning it. This is problematic because if this is a sync parse, it will stall the editor on large files. If it is an async parse, the functions return stale trees. **Solution:** Remove this parsing side effect and leave it to the user to parse the returned trees, either synchronously or asynchronously.
