feature: teach rust-analyzer to discover `linked_projects`

This PR's been a long-time coming, but like the title says, it introduces server-side project discovery and removes the extension hooks I previously introduced. I don't think this PR is ready to land, but here are the things I'm feeling squishy about:
- I don't think I like the idea of introducing the `cargo-metadata` command-but-for-everything-else in the `flycheck` module, but the progress reporting infrastructure was too convenient to pass up. Happy to move it elsewhere.

Here are the things I _know_ I need to change:
- For progress reporting, I'm extracting from a `serde_json::Value` that corresponds to `tracing_subsciber::fmt::Layer`'s JSON output. I'd like to make this a bit more structured/documented than the current nonsense I wrote.
- The progress reporting currently hardcodes "Buck"; it should be deriving that from the previously mentioned more-structured-output.
- This doesn't handle *reloading* when a corresponding buildfile is changed. It should be doing that.
