Description

It seems like Helm Chart files are basically Kubernetes yaml files with templating capability in {{...}} blocks.
It would be nice if Yaml Language Server could provide support for those files (by pre-setting schema, allowing validation/completion in {{...}} and so on.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how the YAML Language Server handles file types, schemas, validation, and completion, then examine how Helm template blocks could be recognized without breaking YAML parsing. Done means .tpf files receive Helm-aware schema support and useful validation or completion inside {{...}} blocks.
