some vim apis are unknown to my lsp

I hope this is worth an issue. If not I apologize, but I don't know where to ask this otherwise.

I have noticed, while going through init.lua and following TJ's video on kickstart, that my LSP knows very little about any vim apis. It seems to know some things, like vim.api or vim.lsp. But the more specific, the higher the chance that I get unknown types. For a lot of the commands and functions in the configuration, they definitely work and it's not a problem using them, but the LSP gives me 0 Information about what they are.

It just makes the configuration much harder, because I have no autocomplete on most things.

I have tried upgrading vim, neovim and adding a vim language server. Now I am out of ideas.

To Reproduce

1. run brew install neovim
2. checkout kickstart project as documented
3. hold K over vim-specific apis like vim.lsp.buf.hover or vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd

Thank you @dam9000. I updated to the prerelease version of neovim and now it works fine.
