Cross-reference the "completers" option, and explain how filtering works.

Even though the synopsis mentioned `kak -f` accepts filenames, it wasn't clear
to me that Kakoune would filter them in-place by default (I guess I assumed it
would write them to stdout like sed(1)).
For the "completions" option type, the documentation states that |
and \ need to be escaped as \| and \\.
The same parser is for other option types that are lists-of-tuples:
range-specs and line-specs, so they need escaping too. Document that.
Only their last element can contain arbitrary data, so range-specs
and line-specs could work without escaping if we tweaked the parser.
The prologue led some users to believe the implementation was compliant with ECMAScript let alone some differences (who *are* documented at the end of the page).
kak-lsp uses these faces to mark errors inside the buffer, instead of the Error
face which is much more jarring, and which does not have an associated warning
face. Since the :spell command marks errors inside the buffer, it's also updated
to use this new face.
Adding these faces to Kakoune makes it more likely that colorschemes will
automatically do the right thing when used with kak-lsp, and makes it possible
to use a subtle appearance (like curly underlines) for in-buffer errors while
keeping Kakoune errors bold and jarring as they should be.
Add support for a third color in face definition that controls
the underline and a 'c' attribute for curly underline (that takes
precedence over 'u' if both are specified)
Allow empty colors to mean default, so that `,,red+u` means the
same as `default,default,red+u`
Fixes#4138
Synchronized output does not work well with various terminals
(including the linux console). It should also be unnecessary when
not going through a slow link.
This will eventually be removed if it is not proven to be useful
to some users.
Those fifos are accessible during %sh{...} blocks, the command fifo
executes commands written to it once the write end side is closed
(multiple open/write/close sequences are supported), the response
fifo is a simple helper fifo available to write response back to
the shell process
An example use of this feature is to request some list options
content from without being limited by the environment size:
```
%sh{
echo "echo -to-file $kak_response_fifo -quoting shell -- %opt{some_list}" > $kak_command_fifo
eval "set -- $(cat $kak_response_fifo)"
}
```
This aids in making it more uniform in style with most manuals on *nix
systems in terms of formatting. Plus, the semantic markup will make it
easier to maintain and less reliant on writing for the renderer.
* Polish some grammar in places.
* Correct some capitalization nitpicks.
* Use "newline" rather than "line feed", which tends to be more common
in Kakoune's documentation thusfar.
I rephrased some sections, as some of them read a little odd.
* Zero width assertions
* Consistently use "subject's beginning" instead of "subject begin",
it reads better.
* Improve the flow of the word boundary descriptions.
* Modifiers
* Improve phrasing to emphasize the linear nature of their usage and
remove a double negative.
* Use `.` instead of "dot", since that aids in searching through the
page for things talking about the dot character.
* Compatibility
* Use asciidoc syntax for the link to the ECMA-262 standard.
* Use better punctuation on the point about escapes.
