refactor(sign): move legacy signs to extmarks
Problem: The legacy signlist data structures and associated functions are redundant since the introduction of extmark signs. Solution: Store signs defined through the legacy commands in a hashmap, placed signs in the extmark tree. Replace signlist associated functions. Usage of the legacy sign commands should yield no change in behavior with the exception of: - "orphaned signs" are now always removed when the line it is placed on is deleted. This used to depend on the value of 'signcolumn'. - It is no longer possible to place multiple signs with the same identifier in a single group on multiple lines. This will now move the sign instead. Moreover, both signs placed through the legacy sign commands and through |nvim_buf_set_extmark()|: - Will show up in both |sign-place| and |nvim_buf_get_extmarks()|. - Are displayed by increasing sign identifier, left to right. Extmark signs used to be ordered decreasingly as opposed to legacy signs.

"number" display signs in the 'number' column. If the number
column is not present, then behaves like "auto".
- Note regarding "orphaned signs": with signcolumn numbers higher than
- 1, deleting lines will also remove the associated signs automatically,
- in contrast to the default Vim behavior of keeping and grouping them.
- This is done in order for the signcolumn appearance not appear weird
- during line deletion.
