Special support for `tsconfig.*.json` files?

[varungandhi-src]

I'm not entirely sure what the expected semantics are; these mostly seems like normal tsconfig.json files except that some other tsconfig.json file may "extend" them (or vice-versa).

For example, tsconfig.base.json has lots of hits: https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+file:tsconfig.base.json&patternType=literal

Consider https://github.com/nextui-org/nextui as a concrete example. The repo has multiple packages and has:

• One central tsconfig.base.json
• Multiple tsconfig.json files, one of which extends the tsconfig.base.json: https://github.com/nextui-org/nextui/blob/bb742faa8290c380e57945e0592fea4fbfdd042a/packages/react/tsconfig.json#L2
• One tsconfig.build.json file, which extends the tsconfig.json file: https://github.com/nextui-org/nextui/blob/main/packages/react/tsconfig.build.json

lsif-node is now considered deprecated, please use https://github.com/sourcegraph/scip-typescript instead.

Re-opened, this is still applicable to scip-typescript.
