jedi-vim Neovim's virtualtext for call signatures

We could investigate using Neovim's virtualtext support for call signatures (https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim/issues/890#issuecomment-444284185), which could be added to the end of the current line.

(https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim/issues/890#issuecomment-444284185 reminded me of that)

Does the new Vim popup change anything? Syntax highlighting signatures maybe?

Yeah, that would likely be even better to use. Neovim has it also (had it before, and Vim uses a different API again...).

I'm open to all those changes, but I'm still using old VIM, so feel free to change this.

Started playing with using Neovim's floating windows. Based on https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim/pull/652.

Syntax highlighting signatures maybe?

It still uses the existing concealing (but in a separate window, not messing with the current buffer anymore, which might interfere with indenting etc).

We can do the same for VIM, using textprop, but we need at least patch 8.2.0286.

Note: textprop is used for usages already: https://github.com/blueyed/jedi-vim/blob/6ca603ffdf989cfc7426485252a77529951ea47e/pythonx/jedi_vim.py#L658-L669
