Recommends deoplete.nvim, which says "The development of this plugin is finished"

Hey, just wondering if we should still recommned deoplete.nvim. On their README they say:

The development of this plugin is finished. Accepts minor patches and issues but no new features. ddc.vim is the next generation auto completion plugin. Consider migrating to it.

Should this project recommend ddc?

I think it may be better to migrate to other plugin, but I don't think ddc.vim would be an option.

If you don't want to configure plugins, you don't have to use the plugin. It does not work with zero configuration. You can use other plugins.

ddc.vim is clearly for advanced Vim users, so I don't think it would be good for a default completion plugins.

Ionide-vim does not depend on a specific completion plugin, so users are able to use ddc.vim anyway if they want.

I'm recently testing https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp personally for #41 .

+1 for nvim-cmp I use it too and it's nice!

deoplete also lacks the heredoc feature on completion, which is another reason to migrate to nvim-cmp.

I've written an example .vimrc to use nvim-cmp: https://github.com/ionide/Ionide-vim/wiki/Configuration-Examples#with-nvim-lspconfig-and-nvim-cmp-for-neovim-05

We now officially recommend nvim-cmp, but since it is a bit complicated to setup (while deoplete takes only a few lines), I leave the deoplete example as a reference.
