feat(ui): add vim.ui.input and use in lsp rename (#15959)

* vim.ui.input is an overridable function that prompts for user input
* take an opts table and the `on_confirm` callback, see `:help vim.ui.input` for more details
* defaults to a wrapper around vim.fn.input(opts)
* switches the built-in client's rename handler to use vim.ui.input by default
