Rename repo to make its purpose clearer? #20

It looks from the README/comments that this is mainly to do with LSP implementations? Hard to tell. Anyway, unless it is a general purpose DSL for Spring, maybe the repo name ought to reflect the content better?

I generally struggled with a naming of this repo as spring-dsl is overly abstract. While it is currently mostly around lsp things my generic idea was to provide things around dsl's so that any dsl you have and create would have easy integration to provide these language services. Some things really don't have anything to do with lsp like symboltable, etc. And you never know where this stuff really goes.

I even considered to name it as spring-language which would have been even worse. I'm up for better naming sure.

One other thing is that there is an antlr module which is meant to provide easier parsing support for any generic dsl's and languages for spring world. Thus we're back to spring-xxx where xxx is something related to dsl, language, etc.
