  • Expand hl-VertSplit / hl-VertSplitNC in syntax.txt to spell out which character (space vs 'fillchars' "vert") and which highlight group (StatusLine / StatusLineNC / VertSplit / VertSplitNC) are used at the separator cell on each kind of screen row.
  • Add cross references from hl-StatusLine and hl-StatusLineNC to hl-VertSplit / hl-VertSplitNC.

The behavior itself is unchanged — see v9.2.0349 (c721965)
but the asymmetry reported in #20089 surprised users, so this aims to make the spec discoverable from the highlight group docs.
