Expected Behaviour

When you make any changes to the workspace's file tree (e.g. add a new file, rename a file), LuaLS becomes aware of them.

Actual Behaviour

New/renamed files are only recognized so long as they are open in the editor and completely forgotten about once closed.

Reproduction steps

1. Add a new file to your existing workspace with the following content:

---@class TestClass
local TestClass = {}

function TestClass.test()
end

return TestClass

2. Save it and close the editor tab.
3. Require this file into a local in some other, preexisting file.
4. Observe that the local is of unknown type.

Additional Notes

Re-running diagnostics doesn't fix this. The only workaround I have found is to completely restart VSCode.

From my limited understanding of LuaLS code, I think it has something to do with cached files. And there is no way to discard and rebuild the cache without exiting VSCode that I could find.
