Make sure input URIs don’t change

[wooorm]

Initial checklist

• I read the support docs
• I read the contributing guide
• I agree to follow the code of conduct
• I searched issues and couldn’t find anything (or linked relevant results below)

Problem

Input and output file URIs sometimes don‘t match. E.g.,:

While your problem currently presents itself around symlinks, it might not be a problem unique to symlinks (e.g., there might be other values that are sent which are sent back differently, due to escapes/encoding of characters, slashes, case-sensitive/-insensitive file systems, &c.).

(GH-32).

Solution

For a solution, I think we can solve this quite like what you’re currently doing it. But I dislike the name file.data.uri. And commenting about symlinks only.
What about calling it file.data.lspInputUri or so? To signal that its purpose is to pass a certain string from that protocol through the engine and back?

lspDocumentUri is great, yeah! I like it more than lspInputUri
