perf(buffer previewer): improve performance

[linrongbin16]

I changed the internal implementation of communication between provider and buffer previewer.

In previous implementation, I'm using --bind=focus:execute-silent(echo {} > cache_file) to dump fzf's current pointer's line into a cache_file, and watch the file's change with uv.new_fs_event. then render the line (actually a file name) to the buffer previewer.

The uv's fs event is awesome, but binding echo to fzf could lead to stucking, since fzf's focus event is running in sync mode, not async. so when you typing fast, it could be quite laggy. I hate it.

In this PR, I use the fzf's experimental feature: curl localhost:port to get the fzf current status. It will output a json string with: {"current":{"index":97,"text": "lua/fzfx.lua"}}, the current.text is exactly the current fzf's pointer's line.

So I'm trying to get the current line data with uv.spawn, which is also async, it should have better performance. But actually I still met some performance bottle necks:

1. the json output of fzf status is super big, because it contains all the lines in the left side of fzf. I submit a question about this: Query partial fields with `curl` when getting fzf status? junegunn/fzf#3611, hope I could partially query only the current field. For now I'm using a partial decoding method, to hack into the json and retrieve only the current field.
2. Render all the lines of a file could eat a lot of CPU. I rewrite the buffer previewer, and only render the lines in the previewer window. Thus the rendering should be lazy, e.g. only render the lines that user need to see.
