[Feat Request] Project level configuration

[Eric-Song-Nop]

Motivation

It seems that whenever I restart the Neovim, I need to re-pin the main file, thus I hope that tinymist can have some sort of project level configuration.

Description

tinymist can read some project level configuration file, either typst.toml or other private configuration file, to determine stuffs like main file, root_dir, exclude file, compilation arguments, or other configurations. For now, some editors can handle some of them, but it might be good to be handled by tinymist to make it more corss-editor.

Examples/Questions

not really any good examples for now

From discussion, the configuration should be in typst.toml, and it can be not hod reloaded in first implementation. A minimal setting is only allow a single entry:

[[tinymist.input]]
entry = "project/main.typ"

For auto pinning: when you are seeing or editing some file is related to this main file, the main file is used, otherwise it is unpinned and set the seeing or editing file as main implicitly. This has lower priority than explicit pin. How do you think of it?
