Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reading issue #4946 and the neocmakelsp feature description at its linked URL, then inspect ALE's existing CMake language-server support. Done means ALE supports configuring and using neocmakelsp, including its advertised GoToDefinition capability.

Description

new tool

Name: neocmakelsp
URL: https://neocmakelsp.github.io

Quoting the initial sentence of their own description:

Another lsp for cmake made with rust powered by tower-lsp with lots of features.

A quick glance at the feature set tells that this one seems more capable than #4946. It supposedly supports GoToDefinition. I haven't tried it out yet.
