Subject: [PATCH] feat(ai): add avante.nvim for a better AI experience (#4440)

I switched over to https://github.com/yetone/avante.nvim and I think
this is the best experience in terms of UI and easiness to add patches
to your code.

I'm recommending it to everyone.

~~However, I couldn't make render-markdown to work on Avante. It seems
that my spec here is running before the one defined in
extras/lang/markdown.lua and getting overwritten even though I added
`optional = true`. I'll try to dig in deeper, but if someone has any
pointers, I'd appreciate it.~~

  - Fixes #4394
