Description

Describe the solution you'd like
Currently for project rename lspsaga is using ripgrep. However this will replace it in all files and sometimes doesn't work as expected. The solution would be to use ast-grep. ast-grep is a fast and polyglot tool for code structural search, lint, rewriting at large scale!

Research direction

Start by locating the project-rename entry point and its current ripgrep use; then read ast-grep's structural rewrite documentation. Done means project renaming uses ast-grep and no longer broadly replaces unrelated text.
