This is another attempt at:
https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/pull/2473
Which removed the apparently flawed attempt at "lazy" loading of YCM.
While it fails to get the load out of the critical startup path, it
*does* serve the useful purpose when starting up gvim of avoiding a
deadlock situation in gvim.
So, this time, we keep VimEnter, but only for the gui-starting case. We
update the comment to explain what is actually happening. And we can
keep the docs about how to defer loading.
[READY] Do not use BufReadPre autocommand
This autocommand has a bug that makes the cursor goes to the first line of the current buffer when opening the preview window with `:pedit`. Since the `BufRead` autocommand is always called after, we can drop it by moving the `s:OnBufferReadPre` logic into the `s:OnBufferRead` function.
Fixes#2466.

As discussed in https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/pull/2454,
this code doesn't do what it claims to do on the surface, so we should
delete it.
I'll follow up with a commit to explain in the README how to actually
defer loading of the plug-in.
[READY] Remove outdated Syntastic option
The `ycm_register_as_syntastic_checker` option was introduced a long time ago in commit 16b6f877c6 and became obsolete when [Syntastic support was replaced](6c01881e1a). Since then, it doesn't serve any purpose except being an alias to the `ycm_show_diagnostics_ui` option which can be an issue (see #2455) so we remove it.
Fixes#2455.

[READY] Add client logfile
We have a lot of issue reports with Python exceptions that interrupt user workflow or even worse make the editor unusable and force users to restart it (e.g. issue https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/issues/2192). We really want to avoid that but at the same time we can't just silence these exceptions because they are useful to debug the issue. Logging them to Vim `:messages` is not practical because we can't write to it without displaying messages in the status line which, in addition to distract users, may lead to various issues like the infamous `Press ENTER or type command to continue` message. This is why a logfile is needed.
For now, only server crashes are logged but more logging will be added: connection issues with the server (`ConnectTimeout`, `ReadTimeout`, etc. exceptions), UltiSnips unavailability, requests sent to the server, etc.
The behavior of the `:YcmToggleLogs` command is changed to accept multiple arguments where each argument is a logfile name. Each of these files is opened in a separate window or closed if already open. When no argument is given, the list of available logfiles is displayed to the user. Example:
```
Available logfiles are:
ycm_pz83u7.log
ycmd_23830_stderr_gf6j3i.log
ycmd_23830_stdout_gmpa_k.log
```
With this change and PR #2342, we will add the completers logfiles to the list of files that can be opened with the `:YcmToggleLogs` command.
A bunch of tests are added that cover almost all changes introduced by this PR.

# Why this change is necessary and useful
[Please explain **in detail** why the changes in this PR are needed.]
See pull request: [#2072](https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/pull/2072)
Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce the original author's results. I tried using a clean .vim and .vimrc. The only plugins I used were YCM and ctrlfs.vim, just as the original author mentioned. The .vimrc looks like this:
```VimL
syntax on
set history=500
set nocp
filetype plugin indent on
set encoding=GBK
```
Whatever I tried to do with configuration, I couldn't get a start without an error, but it is already known that YCM doesn't work properly with any file not using UTF encoding.
The error I was getting on vim start up:
```
Error detected while processing function youcompleteme#Enable[67]..<SNR>36_OnBufferRead[6]..<SNR>36_AllowedToCompleteInCurrentBuffer[1]..<SNR>36_AllowedToCompleteInBuffer:

Error I was having after almost every key press:

# Why this change is necessary and useful
Auto-inserting namespace imports in C# is broken because the `ReplaceChunk()` call is missing an argument
[cont]: https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
[code]: https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
ReplaceChunk must have changed to require the buffer at some point
No test is included because it's a one-line change; the method is theoretically covered, so I'm not sure why the missing argument error was not caught (not familiar with these tests). Happy to add one if needed (and I can get pointed in the right direction).

Implement ycm_quiet_messages options (See #2021)

# Why this change is necessary and useful
See issue #2021. This is a partial implementation based on the syntastic option referenced, supporting the `!` flag and filters of type `regex` and `level`. Also supports filetype specific filters using `ycm_<ft>_quiet_messages`, but I couldn't think of a great way to fall back to syntastic configs for this one.
In terms of usefulness: I've been playing with C# recently, which has a bunch of style warnings that I don't want to follow, and prefer to only have the gutter showing if there are actually errors, or warnings that I *do* want to follow.
