upgrade to Monaco 0.20.0

[akosyakov]

It's required to support semantic highlighting, for instance to run latest rust extension: #7608

There are 2 ways:

• do it after remove dependency to monaco-languageclient #7100 (hopefully we do it in next 2
  months)
• do it as the previous Monaco migration, see TODOs and tests in Upgrade to LSP 6.0.0 and Monaco 0.19.3 #7149
  • there is already a PR for monaco-languageclient: Bump to monaco-editor 0.20.0 TypeFox/monaco-languageclient#207

Hi @akosyakov
probably, we (at Red Hat) can work on it starting next week, by doing it as the previous Monaco migration.
I'll let you know here by Friday, May 8.

[azatsarynnyy]

We need a couple of more days to finalize our plans for May. So, I will come back next week with more accurate dates.

[azatsarynnyy]

We'll work on it during May. Most likely, starting next week.

Cool! Thanks @azatsarynnyy - rust-analyzer support (requiring newer Monaco) will be awesome!!

[azatsarynnyy]

@Leo-LB I wonder are you interested in some features of newer Monaco or more in Plugin APIs that we'll be able to implement after the upgrade?

@azatsarynnyy the latter - see: #7608

@akosyakov
I'm ready to take this issue in progress, if you don't mind.

Please let me know if you have some things I should pay attention.
From my side I remember:

• this place
• hotfix for IME support
• This place should be revisited at the next upgrade Monaco version. See [monaco][quick-open] Using fuzzySort: true throws an error #7899 for more details
• revert Stick to vscode-languageserver@6.0.0-next.1 #6607 and revisit Content assistant for tasks.json is broken #6542 (comment)

I'll add these items to my TODO list when I have the corresponding PR in Theia

@akosyakov
I see you published next version of monaco-languageclient.

Can I ask you publish 0.20 version of @theia/monaco-editor-core when you have a chance.

Then I can apply these versions for Theia and open a draft PR for testing and adaptation.

[akosyakov]

@RomanNikitenko Hi, I will do tomorrow morning.
