### Expected Behaviour
It would be nice if the extension could recognize files as lua based on a set of configurable extensions.
### Actual Behaviour
Currently, it seems to only recognize files with `.lua` as their extension as lua files.
### Reproduction steps
Create a lua file with a different extension, open the file in VSCode. The editor has no idea the file is lua.

Research direction
Reproduce the behavior in the Visual Studio Code extension by opening a Lua file with a non-.lua extension and confirming it is not recognized. Trace the extension's file-language recognition and configuration entry points, then verify that users can configure a set of extensions and that those files receive Lua language support.
