refactor!: remove `nvim` and `provider` module for checkhealth

The namespacing for healthchecks for neovim modules is inconsistent and
confusing. The completion for `:checkhealth` with `--clean` gives

```
nvim
provider.clipboard
provider.node
provider.perl
provider.python
provider.ruby
vim.lsp
vim.treesitter
```

There are now three top-level module names for nvim: `nvim`, `provider`
and `vim` with no signs of stopping. The `nvim` name is especially
confusing as it does not contain all neovim checkhealths, which makes it
almost a decoy healthcheck.

The confusion only worsens if you add plugins to the mix:

```
lazy
mason
nvim
nvim-treesitter
provider.clipboard
provider.node
provider.perl
provider.python
provider.ruby
telescope
vim.lsp
vim.treesitter
```

Another problem with the current approach is that it's not easy to run
nvim-only healthchecks since they don't share the same namespace. The
current approach would be to run `:che nvim vim.* provider.*` and would
also require the user to know these are the neovim modules.

Instead, use this alternative structure:

```
vim.health
vim.lsp
vim.provider.clipboard
vim.provider.node
vim.provider.perl
vim.provider.python
vim.provider.ruby
vim.treesitter
```

and

```
lazy
mason
nvim-treesitter
telescope
vim.health
vim.lsp
vim.provider.clipboard
vim.provider.node
vim.provider.perl
vim.provider.python
vim.provider.ruby
vim.treesitter
```

Now, the entries are properly sorted and running nvim-only healthchecks
requires running only `:che vim.*`.
