[Neovim] add async support? about vim-ags HOT 5 CLOSED

That sounds good. I think async support would be a welcome improvement. I'm a bit busy with other projects right now. But, I'll get to this as soon as I have some spare time.

I've been playing with the async support for neovim. I have a potential implementation here 00880a6 on the async-search branch. The only thing is that it doesn't seem faster that the sync version. Take a look when you have some time.

It definitely faster, I tried it on a very large java project (my current working project), and when I search a very common word, your master branch took about 10-15 seconds before it can populate any result. While with the async branch, it shows result within 1 second, and I can start scrolling down while it's adding more results to the buffer. Impressive!

Sounds good. Then it's worth integrating this change it into the master branch.

Thanks for your great work. I will close this issue.
