Add ALEJobStarted User autocommand event
The ALELintPre and ALELintPost autocommand events are currently being used by lightline-ale to refresh the status line and check the linter status for a current buffer. One of the plugin's checks looks to see if linters are currently running, via ale#engine#IsCheckingBuffer(). This currently only works partially in certain situations. In my particular case, working with Go files, this only seems to function properly when a file is initially opened. Saving a file does not correctly update the status. This seems to be due to the fact that ALELintPre actually runs before any jobs are carried out, making it plausible that hooking into ALELintPre for the purpose of checking to see if there are any currently running linters for a buffer is unreliable as it would be prone to pretty obvious race conditions. This adds a new User autocommand, ALEJobStarted, that gets fired at the start of every new job that is successfully run. This allows a better point to hook into checking the linter status of a buffer using ale#engine#IsCheckingBuffer() by ensuring that at least one job has started by the time IsCheckingBuffer is run.
