LSP https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/specification-current/#cancelRequest
expects the server to send back the response even when the request is cancelled.
Gopls LSP protocol implements the cancellation using the context cancellation.
That is, upon a cancellation request from the client, the server calls the
corresponding canceller that cancels the context passed to the handler.
Reusing this cancelled context for the replyer is not safe because code in any layer
can decide to shortcircuit and skip sending the data back to the client.
E.g. https://cs.opensource.google/go/tools/+/master:internal/jsonrpc2/stream.go;l=63
This CL make sure to pass the detached context to the replier.
Alternative, or a better approach to avoid any unexpected side-effect of
using a detached context is to send out the response at the point of cancellation
with a separate context. But that requires more significant code change.
Testing is currently hard, but maybe doable once the current refactoring is
done. Test is left as a TODO.
