- Updated Linux64 instructions for older systems where cmake(2.8) might be causing compilation issues.
- Using cmake3 may likely address issues (in certain scenarios)
Use the timers feature to display diagnostics asynchronously instead of waiting
for an autocommand to trigger.
Increase Vim version requirement to 7.4.1578.
Drop the CursorHold and CursorHoldI autocommands.
Parse buffer on the TextChanged autocommand instead of CursorMoved.
Don't use VimEnter initialization except when stating gui

# Why this change is necessary and useful
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] 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.

[READY] Bumps required Vim to 7.4.143 and adopts TextChangedI.
Long and personal experience, when TextChangedI gets used, YCM seems
to perform better, diagnostics will trigger much less frequently at
inappropriate occasions, even less with whitespace agnostic triggers,
if I recall correctly...
There's a previous discussion at #1337. At the time this change was bundled in
a single pull request with other changes.
It has gone through the test of the time, sole issue I've stumbled upon was reported
by @puremourning at https://github.com/oblitum/YouCompleteMe/issues/10. This
is what me and other users of my fork use daily.
