Research direction

The issue names no yaml-language-server files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing tombi's extensions/ directory and the linked special-file examples, then locate the corresponding language-server integration points. Done would require an agreed extension-system design and clearly defined support for the selected YAML file types.
