3053: Feature: downloading lsp server from GitHub r=matklad a=Veetaha
This is currently very WIP, I may need to change this and that, add "download language server command", logging stuff (for future bug reports), etc., but it already works.
Also didn't test this on windows yet and mac (don't have the latter)
The quirks:
* Downloaded binary doesn't have executable permissions by default, that's why we ~~`chmod 111`~~ (**[UPD]** `chmod 755` as per @lnicola [suggestion](https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/pull/3053#discussion_r376694456)) for it.
* To remove installed binary run `rm /${HOME}/.config/Code/User/globalStorage/matklad.rust-analyzer/ra_lsp_server-linux`, ~~note that `-f` flag is necessary, because of `111` permissions (I think this should be changed)~~ (**[UPD]** --force is no longer needed due to 755 permissions).
I also tried to keep things simple and not to use too many dependencies, all the ones added have 0 dependencies, (`ts-not-nil` is my personal npm package, that imitates `unwrap()` in TypeScript)
**[UPD]** I reduced throttle latency of progress indicator to 200ms for smoother UX
// TODO:
- [x] ~~Add `Rust Analyzer: Download latest language server` vscode command.~~ **[UPD]**: having reviewed the code and estimated available options I concluded that this feature requires too many code changes, I'd like to extract this into a separate PR after we merge this one.
- [x] Add some logging for future debugging
- [x] ~~Gracefully handle the case when language server is not available (e.g. no internet connection, user explicitly rejected the download, etc.)~~ **[UPD]** Decided to postpone better implementation of graceful degradation logic as per [conversation](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/185405-t-compiler.2Fwg-rls-2.2E0/topic/Deployment.20and.20installation/near/187758550).
Demo (**[UPD]** this is a bit outdated, but still mainly reflects the feature):

In particular it is necessary to clone the repository before running the other commands. I also removed the `cargo install` side note because it didn't actually work (running the command just produces an error that --package isn't a recognized flag) and added a tldr code block with the list of commands to run.
1. `command` has been added to change the default cargo-watch command
2. `check-arguments` has been renamed to `arguments` as a consequence
Thoses changes were merged in #1434
