Watch prospective root modules (to detect "terraform init" from scratch)

[radeksimko]

Current Version

0.4.1

Use-cases

The user may not start with initialized root modules and therefore they won't be discovered by the server.

Instinctively though users will follow the error message and try to terraform init while keeping the editor open. The server however won't detect these new files and won't load the schema from the newly initialized root module automatically.

The server only detects changes for now.

Attempted Solutions

Restart editor/server.

Proposal

Identifying prospective root modules is difficult - in theory any folder with *.tf files, or even without may become a root module and be init-ed in the future.

We could however track prospective root modules by tracking any directory of a file which is received via didOpen, so we'd only actively track the folders of files which are currently open.
