[READY] Refactor diagnostic commands
This PR moves the logic of the `YcmDiags` and `YcmForceCompileAndDiagnostics` commands to the Python layer. It replaces the `echo` calls by `PostVimMessage` ones to display message on the status line and it always prints `Diagnostics refreshed` once compilation is done. This has the benefit of clearing the message `Forcing compilation, this will block Vim until done.` and avoiding the `Press Enter or type command to continue` prompt.
This also adds the `YcmLocationOpened` autocommand which is the same as `YcmQuickFixOpened` but for the location list window.
Fixes#2543.

[RFC] Send requests again when server becomes ready
Since PR #2517, the `BufferVisit` and `FileReadyToParse` requests are ignored until the server is ready. We need to send them again when it becomes ready so that identifiers and snippets for the current buffer are properly parsed. This is done in the `s:OnFileReadyToParse` function since this function is regularly called. We also try to set the omnifunc since it depends on a response from the server and is only set when entering a buffer or changing its filetype. This replaces the code that consisted of setting the omnifunc when entering insert mode for the first time.
A cleaner solution would be to do that asynchronously but we can't with our Vim version requirement.
Fixes#2541.

Building racerd fails with the current submodule version of ycmd. This updates ycmd to the latest commit (ec7a154 at the time of writing) and fixes racerd failing to build. No additional tests were included because this is an update a library with its own tests.
Closes#2480.

[READY] Remove healthy check
This PR removes the code that, if the server is not yet healthy, tries in a separate thread to send the same request at different intervals until it gets a response or reaches 5 failed attempts.
Main issue with that code is that it blocks Vim if a synchronous request (`semantic_completion_available`, `run_completer_command`, etc.) is sent while the server is not up. See issue #2071.
Other issues are that it's hard to understand how this code behaves (it combines threads and retries), it becomes useless once the server is healthy (because `SERVER_HEALTHY` is cached and never reset), it depends on arbitrary parameters (why 5 retries with a delay of 0.5s multiplied by 1.5 at each attempt?), and it has a package dependency `retries`.
Now that we catch all server exceptions (PR #2453) and define a very short connection timeout (PR #2514), we can just drop this code.
This change gives a huge improvement in startup time on Windows (don't worry, more improvements are coming for all platforms). The reason is that `requests` (probably `urllib3`) tries for ~1s to check if the server is healthy on Windows while it's almost instantaneous on other platforms.

These results were obtained by running the `prof.py` script from [this branch](https://github.com/micbou/YouCompleteMe/tree/profiling-startup). The difference between first run and subsequent runs is Python bytecode generation (`*.pyc` files).

On non-Windows platforms, a ConnectionError exception is raised instead
of a ConnectTimeout one when the connection cannot be established (e.g.
the server crashed). Since the latter is a subclass of the former, we
only need to catch ConnectionError.
[READY] Rely on connect timeout instead of checking that the server is alive
Currently, we always check that the ycmd process is up (with the `IsServerAlive` method) before sending a request. Without this check, each request could block Vim until a `NewConnectionError` exception is raised if the server crashed. This is the case on Windows where it takes ~1s before the exception is raised which makes Vim unusable. However, even with this check, Vim may still be blocked in the following cases:
- the server crashes just after the check but before sending the request;
- the server is up but unresponsive (e.g. its port is closed).
To avoid both cases, we instead use [the connect timeout parameter from Requests](http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/advanced/?highlight=connect%20timeout#timeouts) and set it to a duration sufficiently short (10 ms) that the blocking can't be noticed by the user. Since the server is supposed to run locally (this is what YCM is designed for), 10ms is largely enough to establish a connection.
The `IsServerAlive` check is removed almost everywhere except in `OnFileReadyToParse` because we still want to notify the user if the server crashed.
This change makes it possible to not have to [wait for the server to be healthy before sending asynchronous requests](https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/blob/master/python/ycm/client/base_request.py#L137-L138). This will dramatically improve startup time (see issue #2085) and fixes#2071. Next PR once this one is merged.

[READY] Include subservers logfiles in YcmToggleLogs command

```
:YcmToggleLogs
Available logfiles are:
jedihttp_55438_stderr_g9rk18nc.log
jedihttp_55438_stdout_duc8kfqm.log
ycm_ttssiu.log
ycmd_55432_stderr_b9lnwf.log

# Why this change is necessary and useful
The issue template has worked very well and a larger number of reported issues include useful diagnostics. However, this is still far from ubiquitous.
I've noticed two recurring problems, that I've tried to solve with an update to the template:
- when reporting a build failure, not including the _entire_ `install.py` log or the command used to run it
- when reporting issues, stating that something doesn't work, but not stating what the expected behaviour was (this is a common human mistake).
Meanwhile, I've encouraged the reporter to fill in the sections by actually providing such sections in the template for them to fill in.
This is unlikely to get us to 100%, but hopefully another incremental increase in the quality of reports will come out of it.

[READY] Handle server exceptions from loading/ignoring extra conf
Since PR #2453, we don't catch anymore exceptions raised from loading or ignoring a `.ycm_extra_conf.py` file. For instance, loading this extra conf:
```python

```
will result in a Python traceback inside Vim. This is fixed by catching the `UnknownExtraConf` exception in its own block (as [it was before](48b7ccef76/python/ycm/client/event_notification.py (L64-L73))).

[READY] Fix large file message appearing twice
In PR #2469, we moved the large file logic inside `s:OnBufferRead` but forgot this function was not only called on the `BufRead` event but also on the `FileType` one. This makes the large file message appears twice when opening such file. We fix that by not displaying the message when the `b:ycm_largefile` variable is already set.
Also, the message is now displayed with `PostVimMessage` to avoid the `Press ENTER or type command to continue` prompt.

A lot of different errors may occur when sending a request to ycmd and receiving its response:

- `RuntimeError` exception from invalid HMAC;
- and possibly others.
Thanks to PR #2430, we can now catch and log these exceptions.
I am marking this PR as WIP because I'd like to add tests but I am not sure on how to implement them. Should we use actual code for these tests or mock the response from the ycmd server?

While it fails to get the load out of the critical startup path, it

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.
