[Bug]: Lua diagnostics in Visual Studio are not aware of the target Lua version (on hardware)

Pre-check

• [X] I have searched the existing issues and discussions to make sure my problem has not already been addressed.
• [X] I have looked at the "Known Issues" Section of the marketplace page of all TSP Toolkit extensions.

Visual studio will strikeout certain functions, like table.getn(), and flag them as deprecated. That's not correct for the target system, as the DMM 6500 has an old Lua interpreter which does support table.getn(). On the ther hand, things like #t (with t being a table) are not marked as an error, even though the Lua on the machine does not support these new language features. I have found several table functions which do not work on the 6500's interpreter, and it would be good if the IDE could indicate those. Using 0.18.2 of the toolkit, which pulled in lua-language-server 3.12.2

Steps to Reproduce

Write a script containing local gridLines = {} gridLines[1] = display.create(swipe_id, display.OBJ_LINE, 1, 5, 1, 200) gridLines[2] = display.create(swipe_id, display.OBJ_LINE, 270, 5, 270, 200) gridLines[3] = display.create(swipe_id, display.OBJ_LINE, 600, 5, 600, 200) for i = 1, table.getn(gridLines) do display.setcolor(gridLines[i], 0x7f7f7f) end print (#t)

Expected Behavior

table.getn(gridLines) should not be flagged as deprecated

t should be flagged as not supported by the target platform

Actual Behavior

table.getn(gridLines) is printed in strikethrough font and flagged deprecated

t is not flagged

Updated to V1.0.0 --> table.getn is no longer flagged - excellent! However, #t still does not get flagged.
