Description
I'm using neovim 0.7 with lsp-installer and files are not being formatted with the requested configuration in both cases.

_.editorconfig_
```
[*.lua]
# [basic code reformat option]
# optional space/tab
indent_style = space
# if indent_style is space, this is valid
indent_size = 4
```
_nvim-lspinstall.lua_
```
local status_ok, lsp_installer = pcall(require, "nvim-lsp-installer")
if not status_ok then
return
end
lsp_installer.on_server_ready(function(server)
local opts = {}
if server.name == "sumneko_lua" then
opts.settings = {
Lua = {
diagnostics = {
globals = { "vim" }
},
format = {
enable = true,
defaultConfig = {
indent_style = "space",
indent_size = "4",
}
},
}
}
end
server:setup(opts)
end)
```
I use the command `lua vim.lsp.buf.formatting()` but the code is formatted with the default values (8 spaces I think)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with the shown .editorconfig, nvim-lspinstall.lua settings, and lua vim.lsp.buf.formatting() command. Trace how the language server receives formatting configuration and verify that formatting Lua files honors indent_style=space and indent_size=4 rather than the reported default.
