Language Server Experiments

[laeubi]

Some playground for integration of Language Servers in PDE as in

• Provide a Language Server for bnd instructions bndtools/bnd#5833
• Support for automatic manifest generation: Syntax highlighting in bnd files #701

Actually a LS would also be good for any PDE artifacts:

• MANIFEST.MF
• build.properties
• products
• features
• categories
• ...

Will require:

• Add LSP supporting libraries eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator#1476

Using language server in PDE would be amazing. Thanks Christopher for working on this.
