Description

We want to have LSP support for "plain brightscript projects", via the brsconfig.json mechanism. Add support in brighterscript for that, with slimmed down schema stuff, language server constraints to avoid brighterscript features, brsconfig.json detection, etc.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing language-server entry points and the brsconfig.json handling in brighterscript. Trace how schema support and language-server constraints are currently applied, then verify that a plain BrightScript project is detected and receives the requested slimmed-down behavior without BrighterScript-only features.
