Become totally independent from the official Zig extension

[SuperAuguste]

I think that's the way. More generally, I believe there shouldn't be separate zig and zig-zls vscode extensions, there should be a single extension that handles everything zig-related. From the user's perspective, an important part of UX is to be able to install a single thing, and trust the authors of the thing to correctly assemble a holistic user experience from the underlying tools.

To clarify, this integration would not preclude someone from shipping an alternative view of how it all should look like: the benefit is in integration, not in monopoly.

I've let this stew a bit and I definitely agree with matklad's point of view, especially after reading this tweet. ZLS is an extremely helpful tool for beginners and everyone else and it's a shame that people choose the official Zig extension over this for various different reasons, from lack of certain features, but also a branding and trust issue. That shouldn't be the case.

Create a new VSCode extension that does both syntax as well as ZLS. Currently there are 2 separate extensions that you have to install. Deprecate those two extensions in favor of the One Extension To Rule Them All.

I'll hit up Vexu and see if we can perhaps work together on this. I created this issue thinking that the opposite sentiment was true.

So total 180, we're going to try to integrate both extensions into one, thanks for pointing that out @matklad :)
