discard stale completion requests
Completion requests are computed asynchronously to avoid common micro freezes while editing. This means that once a completion request completes, the state of the editor might have changed. Currently, there is a check to ensure we are still in insert mode. However, we also need to ensure that the view and document hasn't changed to avoid accidentally using a savepoint with the wrong view/document. Furthermore, the editor might request a new completion while the previous completion request hasn't complemented yet. This can lead to weird flickering or an outdated completion request replacing a newer completion that has already completed (the LSP server is not required to process completion requests in order). This change also needed to ensure determinism/linear ordering so that completion popup always correspond to the last completion request.pull/5/head
