Description

@giacomocavalieri Filing the Issue as requested to add the available bit_array options as autocompletables in the LSP when in context of a bit_array.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the Gleam LSP implementation in Rust, specifically how autocomplete is handled. Look for existing autocomplete logic for other constructs (e.g., record fields) and adapt it to provide bit array options when inside a bit array literal. Check the LSP's code for handling bit arrays and identify where to inject completions.
