Merge #4448
4448: Generate configuration for launch.json r=vsrs a=vsrs
This PR adds two new commands: `"rust-analyzer.debug"` and `"rust-analyzer.newDebugConfig"`. The former is a supplement to the existing `"rust-analyzer.run"` command and works the same way: asks for a runnable and starts new debug session. The latter allows adding a new configuration to **launch.json** (or to update an existing one).
If the new option `"rust-analyzer.debug.useLaunchJson"` is set to true then `"rust-analyzer.debug"` and Debug Lens will first look for existing debug configuration in **launch.json**. That is, it has become possible to specify startup arguments, env variables, etc.
`"rust-analyzer.debug.useLaunchJson"` is false by default, but it might be worth making true the default value. Personally I prefer true, but I'm not sure if it is good for all value.
----
I think that this PR also solves https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/issues/3441.
Both methods to update launch.json mentioned in the issue do not work:
1. Menu. It is only possible to add a launch.json configuration template via a debug adapter. And anyway it's only a template and it is impossible to specify arguments from an extension.
2. DebugConfigurationProvider. The exact opposite situation: it is possible to specify all debug session settings, but it is impossible to export these settings to launch.json.
Separate `"rust-analyzer.newDebugConfig"` command looks better for me.

Fixes #4450
Fixes #3441
