Johannes Altmanninger 66078243ec Run InsertCompletionHide hook before insertions that close completion menu
Insert mode completions are accepted by typing any key.  For example,
if there is a completion "somefunction()", then typing

	some<c-n>;

will insert

	somefunction();

and then the InsertCompletionHide hook will fire.  The hook parameter
is a range that contains the entire thing: the actual completion plus
the trailing semicolon that closed the completion menu.

The [original motivation] for the hook parameter was to support
removing text inserted by completion, so we can apply text edits
or expand snippets instead. One problem is that we don't want to
remove the semicolon. Another problem came up in a discussion
about [snippets]: let's say we have a snippet "add" that expands to

	add(?, ?)

where ? are placeholders. After snippet expansion the cursor replaces
the first placeholder. If I type "ad<c-n>1" I expect to get "add(1, ?)".
If the InsertCompletionHide hook only runs after processing the "1"
keystroke, this is not possible without evil hacks.

Fix these problems by running InsertCompletionHide when a completion is
accepted _before_ inserting anything else into the buffer.  This should
make it much easier to fully implement [LSP text edits]. I doubt
that anyone besides kak-lsp is using the hook parameter today so this
should be a low-risk fix.
