docs: unverbose, mention "settings" param
Problem:
- The docs are verbose.
- The "settings" param is not really clarified anywhere.
Solution:
- Mention the "settings" param in the README.
- Tighten up the wording.
- Remove the "Use a loop to conveniently call 'setup'..." advice in the
docs. It confuses users and doesn't really save much code.
- Start to reduce the scope of nvim-lspconfig.
- For example, it is redundant for it to document general LSP things.
Thus, the help section *lspconfig-lsp* was removed.
closes #1951

If the `cmd` is an executable name instead of an absolute path to the executable, ensure it is on your path. 2. Missing filetype plugins. Certain languages are not detecting by vim/neovim because they have not yet been added to the filetype detection system. Ensure `:set ft?` shows the filetype and not an empty value. - 3. Not triggering root detection. **Some** language servers will only start if it is opened in a directory, or child directory, containing a file which signals the *root* of the project. Most of the time, this is a `.git` folder, but each server defines the root config in the lua file. See [server_configurations.md](doc/server_configurations.md) or the source for the list of root directories. - 4. You must pass `on_attach` and `capabilities` for **each** `setup {}` if you want these to take effect. - 5. **Do not call `setup {}` twice for the same server**.
