Enable checks for unused code, deprecated calls, return types, and
annotations.
Fix the warnings and replace the deprecated highlight function. Keep
exceptions where old APIs are still needed or the checker gets it wrong.

Problem:
- To share logic, creating a `vim.Range` currently creates two `vim.Pos` values
as intermediates, which causes unnecessary table allocations.
- `pos.lua` and `range.lua` contain some overlapping logic.
Solution:
Add `vim.pos._util`, a module for handling
positions represented directly by `row` and `col`.
Problem:
treesitter injected language ranges sometimes cross over the capture
boundaries when `@combined`.
Solution:
Clip child regions to not spill out of parent regions within
languagetree.lua, and only apply highlights within those regions in
highlighter.lua.

Problem:
Treesitter highlighting is slow for large files with lots of injections.
Solution:
Only parse injections we are going to render during a redraw cycle.
---
- `LanguageTree:parse()` will no longer parse injections by default and
now requires an explicit range argument to be passed.
- `TSHighlighter` now parses injections incrementally during on_win
callbacks for the line range being rendered.
- Plugins which require certain injections to be parsed must run
`parser:parse({ start_row, end_row })` before using the tree.
Problem:
Treesitter injections are slow because all injected trees are invalidated on every change.
Solution:
Implement smarter invalidation to avoid reparsing injected regions.
- In on_bytes, try and update self._regions as best we can. This PR just offsets any regions after the change.
- Add valid flags for each region in self._regions.
- Call on_bytes recursively for all children.
- We still need to run the query every time for the top level tree. I don't know how to avoid this. However, if the new injection ranges don't change, then we re-use the old trees and avoid reparsing children.
This should result in roughly a 2-3x reduction in tree parsing when the comment injections are enabled.
