Description

Hello! I was wondering if y'all would accept a PR to add an ExtensionVersion to ClientInfo? https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node/blob/02806427ce7251ec8fa2ff068febd9a9e59dbd2f/protocol/src/common/protocol.ts#L1389-L1399

(I'd also be okay with a grab-bag object of object!)

Start with protocol/src/common/protocol.ts around ClientInfo at lines 1389-1399, as linked in the issue. Determine whether ExtensionVersion should be a dedicated field or part of a grab-bag object, then verify the agreed ClientInfo shape and its compatibility expectations before considering the issue complete.
