Subject: [PATCH] neovim: disable python3 and ruby providers by default

Providers are the thing I spend most of my time on while admittedly very
few users use it (I can only think of deoplete now) and it's going to disappear anyway.
We have no tests for it because of the previous reasons.

Before this patch:
nix path-info -Sh .#neovim
/nix/store/smd007xlbsx35y42rri5xlqhjgajz9in-neovim-0.11.6	365.0 MiB

After:
nix path-info -Sh .#neovim
/nix/store/4cr60j05l3pirhhrcs5hqb9rzj854n5r-neovim-0.11.6	240.6 MiB

To restore old behavior, pass `{withPython3= true; withRuby = true; }`
to the neovim wrapper.

+- `neovim` now disables by default the `python3` and `ruby` providers, unused by most users and reducing closure size from 365MiB to 240MiB.
