fix: when running the "discoverProjectCommand", use the Rust file's parent directory instead of the workspace folder
This is a quick fix to allow the `discoverProjectCommand` to run successfully when the user has a workspace that does not, e.g., have a `.buckconfig` defined.
(It's also probably _more correct_ to set the `pwd` of the command to the parent of the Rust file _anyways_ rather than relying on the workspace folders, which may be entirely unrelated.)
internal: Add config to specifiy lru capacities for all queries
Might help figuring out what queries should be limited by LRU by default, as currently we only limit `parse`, `parse_macro_expansion` and `macro_expand`.
Add Cargo-style project discovery for Buck and Bazel Users
This feature requires the user to add a command that generates a `rust-project.json` from a set of files. Project discovery can be invoked in two ways:
1. At extension activation time, which includes the generated `rust-project.json` as part of the linkedProjects argument in `InitializeParams`.
2. Through a new command titled "rust-analyzer: Add current file to workspace", which makes use of a new, rust-analyzer-specific LSP request that adds the workspace without erasing any existing workspaces. Note that there is no mechanism to _remove_ workspaces other than "quit the rust-analyzer server".
Few notes:
- I think that the command-running functionality _could_ merit being placed into its own extension (and expose it via extension contribution points) to provide build-system idiomatic progress reporting and status handling, but I haven't (yet) made an extension that does this nor does Buck expose this sort of functionality.
- This approach would _just work_ for Bazel. I'll try and get the tool that's responsible for Buck integration open-sourced soon.
- On the testing side of things, I've used this in around my employer's Buck-powered monorepo and it's a nice experience. That being said, I can't think of an open-source repository where this can be tested in public, so you might need to trust me on this one.
I'd love to get feedback on:
- Naming of LSP extensions/new commands. I'm not too pleased with how "rust-analyzer: Add current file to workspace" is named, in that it's creating a _new_ workspace. I think that this command being added should be gated on `rust-analyzer.discoverProjectCommand` on being set, so I can add this in sequent commits.
- My Typescript. It's not particularly good.
- Suggestions on handling folders with _both_ Cargo and non-Cargo build systems and if I make activation a bit better.
(I previously tried to add this functionality entirely within rust-analyzer-the-LSP server itself, but matklad was right—an extension side approach is much, much easier.)

Beginning of MIR
This pull request introduces the initial implementation of MIR lowering and interpreting in Rust Analyzer.
The implementation of MIR has potential to bring several benefits:
- Executing a unit test without compiling it: This is my main goal. It can be useful for quickly testing code changes and print-debugging unit tests without the need for a full compilation (ideally in almost zero time, similar to languages like python and js). There is a probability that it goes nowhere, it might become slower than rustc, or it might need some unreasonable amount of memory, or we may fail to support a common pattern/function that make it unusable for most of the codes.
- Constant evaluation: MIR allows for easier and more correct constant evaluation, on par with rustc. If r-a wants to fully support the type system, it needs full const eval, which means arbitrary code execution, which needs MIR or something similar.
- Supporting more diagnostics: MIR can be used to detect errors, most famously borrow checker and lifetime errors, but also mutability errors and uninitialized variables, which can be difficult/impossible to detect in HIR.
- Lowering closures: With MIR we can find out closure capture modes, which is useful in detecting if a closure implements the `FnMut` or `Fn` traits, and calculating its size and data layout.
But the current PR implements no diagnostics and doesn't support closures. About const eval, I removed the old const eval code and it now uses the mir interpreter. Everything that is supported in stable rustc is either implemented or is super easy to implement. About interpreting unit tests, I added an experimental config, disabled by default, that shows a `pass` or `fail` on hover of unit tests (ideally it should be a button similar to `Run test` button, but I didn't figured out how to add them). Currently, no real world test works, due to missing features including closures, heap allocation, `dyn Trait` and ... so at this point it is only useful for me selecting what to implement next.
The implementation of MIR is based on the design of rustc, the data structures are almost copy paste (so it should be easy to migrate it to a possible future stable-mir), but the lowering and interpreting code is from me.
