v2 release

[NTBBloodbath]

This is version 2 of rest.nvim. Please read the following blog posts to learn how they affect you as a plugin user:

• HTTP Tree-Sitter Parser Rewrite
• First Look at Thunder Rest

The installation instructions with traditional plugin managers like packer.nvim and lazy.nvim are in the README of this branch, however, to facilitate them for testing here I leave them for you (Python is required!) :)

packer.nvim

use {
  "rest-nvim/rest.nvim",
  branch = "dev",
  rocks = { "lua-curl", "nvim-nio", "mimetypes", "xml2lua" },
  config = function()
    require("rest-nvim").setup()
  end,
}

lazy.nvim

{
  "vhyrro/luarocks.nvim",
  config = function()
    require("luarocks").setup({})
  end,
},
{
  "rest-nvim/rest.nvim",
  ft = "http",
  dependencies = { "luarocks.nvim" },
  config = function()
    require("rest-nvim").setup()
  end,
}

[!IMPORTANT]

1. Note that you will need to install the next branch of the tree-sitter HTTP parser. rest.nvim has a little logic in the setup to set the parser branch to nvim-treesitter, however this might not work in some cases.

2. If you encounter any problems or bugs, please report them so they can be fixed before doing a merge.

Things missing to merge:

• [ ] Expand documentation (perhaps using something like VitePress or just the GitHub wiki?)
• [x] More testing (please help us there! :D)
• [x] Add the request hooks again
• [ ] Make character encoding escapes smarter (e.g. use %20 instead of + for whitespaces) (non-blocking, can be added along the way). See #281

[!NOTE]

The documentation expansion can be finished along the way, since the internal documentation is already ready. However, due to the nature of rest.nvim and all the features it has, an external documentation that can explain everything in detail would be very useful and necessary.

I will merge in approximately 14 hours, the HTTP parser is already updated in nvim-treesitter and that will force pushing here, which is great since the functionality is already implemented :)

Edit: it seems like I had a little free time and some intrusive thoughts so it was merge earlier than planned haha
