Find all occurrences and replace with telescope.nvim

Setup telescope.nvim for keymapping:

local builtin = require('telescope.builtin')
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>F', builtin.live_grep, { desc = 'Telescope live grep' })

-- Or setup with which-key.nvim
local status_ok, which_key = pcall(require, "which-key")
if not status_ok then
	return
end
which_key.add({
  { "<leader>F", "<cmd>Telescope live_grep<cr>", desc = "Live grep", hidden = true },
})

1. Run <leader>F to find all occurrences.
2. Use <C-q> to send all items into quickfix list (qflist). For default mapping, see this.
3. Use :cdo s/foo/bar/gc to replace all occurrences in the quickfix list.

Some default key mappings and commands

• Existing from Terminal: <C-\><C-n>
• List buffers: :buffers, use :b<number> to switch to target buffer and :bd<number> to delete target buffer.
• Managing pane: :vs or :sp to split. <C-w>H, <C-w>J, <C-w>K, <C-w>L to move pane.
• Number increment/decrement: Increase/Decrease highlighted number by one: <C-a>/<C-x>. Increase/Decrease visual blocked number sequentially: g<C-a>/g<C-x>.
