docs: document breaking change for nvim_create_autocmd callback (#27484)
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/27428 changed the semantics of callbacks passed to nvim_create_autocmd such that any truthy value will delete the autocommand (rather than just the literal boolean value `true`). Update the documentation accordingly and add an entry to `news.txt`. The behavior is now consistent between nvim_create_autocmd and nvim_buf_attach.
