feat(docs): replace lua2dox.lua
Problem: The documentation flow (`gen_vimdoc.py`) has several issues: - it's not very versatile - depends on doxygen - doesn't work well with Lua code as it requires an awkward filter script to convert it into pseudo-C. - The intermediate XML files and filters makes it too much like a rube goldberg machine. Solution: Re-implement the flow using Lua, LPEG and treesitter. - `gen_vimdoc.py` is now replaced with `gen_vimdoc.lua` and replicates a portion of the logic. - `lua2dox.lua` is gone! - No more XML files. - Doxygen is now longer used and instead we now use: - LPEG for comment parsing (see `scripts/luacats_grammar.lua` and `scripts/cdoc_grammar.lua`). - LPEG for C parsing (see `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua`) - Lua patterns for Lua parsing (see `scripts/luacats_parser.lua`). - Treesitter for Markdown parsing (see `scripts/text_utils.lua`). - The generated `runtime/doc/*.mpack` files have been removed. - `scripts/gen_eval_files.lua` now instead uses `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua` directly. - Text wrapping is implemented in `scripts/text_utils.lua` and appears to produce more consistent results (the main contributer to the diff of this change).
