LSP-TypeScript types all values as "any" and gets stuck in infinite loop

Hello!

Thanks for making this plugin. It works well most of the time, but it often gets into a state where type checking stops working. When hovering over values everything is typed as any:

Opening LSP: Toggle Log Panel shows that LSP-typescript appears to be stuck in an infinite loop; it keeps warning about the same file forever, even when I don't touch my computer.

That can happen on project misconfiguration. Usually related to tsconfig.json or missing dependencies or something similar. I can't help you if you can't reproduce it reliably.

I'm not sure why TS would send diagnostics without modifying anything. Maybe there is something updating project files in the background which typescript detects with its internal file watcher. Probably not something that you should worry about. It's certainly not an infinite loop and not for the same file but all open files.

If it's reproducible and you can share your project then feel free to do that. Otherwise I can't tell what's wrong.
