workspace/symbol show symbol which in neovim plugins, how to filter them out?

[woodgear]

set workspace.ignoreDir in .luarc.json or set workspace.ignoreDir in require("lspconfig").sumneko_lua.setup seems not work..

Check your setting workspace.library

[woodgear]

      workspace = {
        library = {}, --vim.api.nvim_get_runtime_file("", true),
        checkThirdParty = false,
        ignoreDir = { ".nvim_modules/", "./.nvim_modules/" },
      },

.nvim_modules is where i put all of my downed neovim plugin.

i dont think setting the workspace.library to {} is a reasonable solution, because it also let the langserver provide less completions.

although it seems there is nothing we can do on the langserver side (changing its setting or using a more strict query for workspace/symbol), we can still do something on the nvim side. for example, if you use lua-langserver via nvim's builtin lsp client, you can overwrite the corresponding response handler. in this case, the handler is [here].(https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/v0.8.1/runtime/lua/vim/lsp/handlers.lua#L253)

it seems like neovim client does not set correctly rootUri.the fileMap only contains metapath and currentbuff file. im still dig the reason.

set root_dir fn in setup fix this problem.
