runtime(filetype): improve *.h filetype detection

This commit changes *.h files to default to C (instead of C++), and
deprecates the existing `g:c_syntax_for_h` and `g:ch_syntax_for_h`
variables in favor of a unified `g:filetype_h`, like is used for other
ambiguous file extensions.

closes: #17135
