tsserver dies over and over in a monorepo project

[avahe-kellenberger]

I'm working in a monorepo with multiple sub-projects that sometimes link to one another.

This is the basic layout:

central:
  ui:
    node_modules:
      util (symlink)
  services:
    node_modules:
      util (symlink)
  api:
    node_modules:
      services (symlink)
      util (symlink)
  util:
    node_modules

I'm not sure what's causing the issue by looking at the logs:
tsserver.log
output-tsserver.log

I'm thinking there might be a cyclical issue when detecting the project file,
but it's just a guess.

This breaks the entire extension for me.

Seems problem with tsserver's watcher on your system.

Looks like this is related: microsoft/TypeScript#36528

Probably a bug with tsserver.

I attempted using the most recent version of typescript and it still persists, so I'll file a bug with that project.

Thanks
