runtime(vim): Update base-syntax, fix escaping :syn and :hi sub-groups (#14137)

* runtime(vim): Update base-syntax, fix escaping :syn and :hi sub-groups

- Remove contained :syntax and :highlight sub-groups from the function
  body cluster.  These should only match in the respective commands.
- Remove vimSynLine syntax group from several clusters.  The definition
  of vimSynLine was removed in Vim 5.3.

* runtime(vim): Update syntax generator, use standard Last Change date format

The de facto standard date format is YYYY MMM DD.
