[clangd] Store index in '.cache/clangd/index' instead of '.clangd/index'
Summary:
.clangd/index was well-intentioned in
2754942cbaef, but `.clangd` is the best
filename for the clangd config file (matching .clang-format and .clang-tidy).
And of course we can't have both .clangd/index and .clangd...
There are a few overlapping goals to satisfy:
- it should be clear from the directory name that this is transient
data that is safe to delete at the cost of recomputation, i.e. a cache
- it should be easy and self-documenting to blacklist these files in .gitignore
- we should have some consistency between filenames in-tree and
corresponding files in user storage (e.g. under XDG's ~/.cache/)
- we should be consistent across platforms (including windows, which
doesn't have distinct cache vs config directories)
So the plan is:
$PROJECT/.clangd (project config)
$PROJECT/.cache/clangd/index/ (project index)
$PROJECT/.cache/clangd/modules/ (maybe in future)
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/clangd/config.yaml (user config)
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/clangd/index/ (index of non-project files)
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/clangd/modules/ (maybe in future)
This is sensible if XDG_{CONFIG,CACHE}_HOME coincide, and has a simple
.gitignore rule going forward: `.cache/`.
The monorepo gitignore is updated to reflect the backwards-compatible practice:
ignore .clangd/ (with trailing slash) matching index files from clangd 9/10
ignore .cache matching index from clangd 11+, and potentially other tools.
The entries from llvm-project/llvm gitignore are removed (obsolete).
