--- Adds a highlight to buffer.

--- Useful for plugins that dynamically generate highlights to a buffer (like

--- Namespaces are used for batch deletion/updating of a set of highlights. To

--- the namespace. All highlights in the same namespace can then be cleared
--- with single call to `nvim_buf_clear_namespace()`. If the highlight never
--- will be deleted by an API call, pass `ns_id = -1`.
+---
--- As a shorthand, `ns_id = 0` can be used to create a new namespace for the

+--- • priority: a priority value for the highlight group, sign

+--- highest priority is drawn last. For example treesitter
+--- highlighting uses a value of 100.
+--- • strict: boolean that indicates extmark should not be placed

+--- same line as the mark and 'cursorline' is enabled.
+--- • conceal: string which should be either empty or a single
+--- character. Enable concealing similar to `:syn-conceal`. When
+--- a character is supplied it is used as `:syn-cchar`.
+--- "hl_group" is used as highlight for the cchar if provided,

+--- • spell: boolean indicating that spell checking should be
+--- performed within this extmark
+--- • ui_watched: boolean that indicates the mark should be drawn
+--- by a UI. When set, the UI will receive win_extmark events.
+--- Note: the mark is positioned by virt_text attributes. Can be
+--- used together with virt_text.
+--- • url: A URL to associate with this extmark. In the TUI, the
