Please enable copilot chat and agent support

[gpetrov]

The current implementation of the github language server has only the inline completion enabled which without any additional prompting is pretty useless.

It seems that the copilot chat and agent support is already included in the language server, but not exposed for usage.

So please expose the copilot chat and agent support so we can do more advanced integrations in other code editors.

It looks like there is quite a bit of interest in it. We look forward to seeing if you'll process it. Thanks in advance!

Any new on this topic @tpope - there are already quite a lot 👍

Chat, agents and maybe tools support is very much needed as you can see.

I was in need of chat for my own selfish purposes and wrote a plugin to mimic the functionality of CopilotChat.nvim in vimscript. Don't think this is the direction that github wants to go with exposing chat functionality but for the time being its working and I'm actively maintaining it to serve as a solution while we wait for official support.
