This patch adds support for completion candidates for functions/macros imported via `import`, modules aliases via `alias`, module attributes, and any of the above when injected via a macro such as `use`. However, this is powered by new APIs and compiler changs that will be available in Elixir 1.17, so when completions are enabled, we will use a bundled 1.17 runtime of Elixir, instead of the ELixir in the user's path. This is a tradeoff, but I think one that is worthwhile in the name of progress and improving the language and ecosystem. Once completions exit experimental status, this means that Next LS will always run with a bundled copy of Elixir of Elixir unless the user's local copy is sufficiently new. This can be controlled via a setting.
