Old "Lua" output channel remains active after restarting server

Which OS are you using?

MacOS

Expected Behaviour

When restarting the language server, I expect the output channel to be either

• cleared and reused by the new server instance
• or deleted and a new one used to replace it

Actual Behaviour

The old channel is never destroyed, leaving multiple channels with the same name which can be confusing if you're looking for new channel output.

Reproduction steps

1. Open a Lua file
2. Run the Lua: Restart Language Server command (many times makes it more obvious)
3. Open the output channel selector dropdown (Output: Show Output Channels...)

Additional Notes

I think this is probably pretty simple to fix, just by either clear()ing and reusing or destroy()ing the OutputChannel used for logging.

Beginne mit dem Handler für den Befehl Lua: Restart Language Server und verfolge, wie sein VS Code-OutputChannel erstellt und beibehalten wird. Führe den Neustart wiederholt durch und überprüfe anschließend, dass Output: Show Output Channels... nur den aktuellen Lua-Kanal enthält und dass dort neue Serverausgaben erscheinen.
