Subject: [PATCH] feat(LspconfigServerLifeCycle): start/stop servers when
 gaining or losing focus

Start/stop servers when nvim session looses focus and restart them on demand.
This features is motivated by the fact that some servers may gain serious
memory footprint and may incur performance issues.
