What does this PR do?

The current glob for watching workspace file changes uses ?(e) and ?(a) to try and mean greadily accept e or a in the extension. Unfortuately, VS Code doesn't support this syntax, so changes in .yaml files in the workspace aren't reported to yaml-language-server.

As a result of this, if you have a JSON schema written in YAML, then any files that reference it won't be properly revalidated when you change it, and the cached version of the schema won't be invalidated properly, leading to incorrect completion results.

What issues does this PR fix or reference?

Is it tested? How?

Manually

The current glob for watching workspace file changes
uses `?(e)` and `?(a)` to try and mean greadily accept `e` or `a` in the
extension.
Unfortuately, VS Code doesn't support this syntax,
so changes in `.yaml` files in the workspace aren't reported to
yaml-language-server.

As a result of this, if you have a JSON schema written in YAML,
then any files that reference it won't be properly revalidated
when you change it,
and the cached version of the schema won't be invalidated properly,
leading to incorrect completion results.
