When editing rust code, the project diagnostics view sometimes fails to
update, so that you have to close the view and re-open it to see the
correct state.
This PR fixes one possible cause of that problem. There was an async
step in between *receiving* diagnostics from the language server and
updating the diagnostics, due to an async call to
`LspAdapter::process_diagnostics`. This could cause the following
sequence of events to happen:
1. Rust-analyzer sends us new diagnostics for a file `a.rs`
2. We call `process_diagnostics` with those diagnostics
3. Rust-analyzer sends us a `WorkDoneProgress` message, indicating that
the "flycheck" (aka `cargo check`) process has completed
4. We update the project diagnostics view due to this message.
5. The `process_diagnostics` call for `a.rs` completes
6. 💥 We have the new diagnostics for `a.rs`, but do not update the
project diagnostics view again.
This PR fixes this bug by simply making `process_diagnostics`
synchronous. There is no I/O or expensive computation happening in that
method. If we need to make it asynchronous in the future, we need to
introduce a queue that ensures that `publishDiagnostics` and
`workDoneProgress` messages are processed serially.
Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug where the project diagnostics view would sometimes fail to
update properly when using Rust-analyzer.
