feat(api): pass 0 to nvim_get_chan_info for current channel (#27321)
Getting current channel info was kind of annoying via RPC. Two functions had to be called: 1. `nvim_get_api_info` which returns `[channel_id, meta_data]`. - This results in `channel_id = api.nvim_get_api_info()[0]`. - Here the meta_data is sent but never used. 2. Finally call `nvim_get_chan_info(channel_id)`. This commit reduces the need for `nvim_get_api_info` as passing 0 returns current channel info.
