Xin Zhao 272d4f1cc2 project: Persist workspace diagnostics when closing buffer (#59875)
# Objective

Closes #50739

Many language servers have settings for their diagnostic mode, typically
supporting either "single file" mode or "workspace" mode.

In single file mode, the language server only generates diagnostics for
files that the user has open. When a file is closed, those diagnostics
are cleared. This is the behavior currently implemented in Zed.

However, when a language server runs in workspace mode, we should retain
all diagnostics regardless of whether the corresponding file is open or
closed. As reported in #50739, Zed currently discards these diagnostics
when a buffer is closed, just like in single file mode.

When a buffer is completely closed, Zed triggers a diagnostics update to
perform cleanup:

https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/6e8b0ae150b6140a398a87a3eb1cd4dd1568c504/crates/project/src/lsp_store.rs#L4747-L4773
and the Pulled diagnostics are all cleaned, that's why when closing a
buffer, the diagnostic summary disappeared. This process aggressively
clears all `Pulled` diagnostics, causing the diagnostic summary for the
closed file to disappear.

## Solution

Filter the target language servers when updating diagnostics on buffer
close. If a language server has workspace diagnostics enabled, we skip
clearing its diagnostics.

## Testing

Added two new integration tests in
`crates/project/tests/integration/project_tests.rs`:
1.
`test_diagnostic_summaries_cleared_on_buffer_close_without_workspace_diagnostics`:
Verifies that diagnostics are cleared on buffer close when workspace
diagnostics is disabled.
2.
`test_diagnostic_summaries_retained_on_buffer_close_with_workspace_diagnostics`:
Verifies that diagnostics are retained when workspace diagnostics are
enabled. (This test fails on the current `main` branch).

I have also verified this functionality locally. Both local and remote
development environments work as expected.

Licensing

Zed source code is licensed primarily under GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked.

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
