Description
Updating the language server is not currently supported:
Users can of course update it themselves using @zed-julia global environment but I think it would be nice to launch a task in the background to try to update LS.jl.

Research direction
Start with src/julia.rs lines 29-40 and review how the language server is currently launched. Check how the @zed-julia global environment and LS.jl updates are handled; done means a background task attempts to update the language server without blocking normal use.
