Research direction

No source file, test, or concrete entry point is named. Start by reviewing the issue's rationale and the linked lsp4e pull request, then determine the supported SQL scope and how language-server support would integrate with WildWebDeveloper; done requires an agreed implementation direction rather than an isolated edit.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Many developers are also using relational databases in their applications and using SQL statements in their code and/or writing database migration scripts. I think it could be useful to add some sort of SQL language server to WildWebDeveloper.

While things like Data Tools Platform and DBeaver exist, the former is "in maintenance mode" while the latter is more or less its own product and there might be people who don't want to have DBeaver in their IDE.

While there are many SQL dialects, maybe there are some general language servers for core SQL (ISO/IEC 9075).

The main reason I'm suggesting this is that I'm experimenting with lsp4e (hoping to be able to contribute it at some point) to add (some) language server support to Java text blocks (currently only completion).
