Calva: So many caches 😀

[PEZ]

Starting Calva and jacking in currently means creating three clj-kondo caches and then some .lsp. cache files as well. The .clj-kondo caches are:

1. clojure-lsp creates one in .clj-kondo/cache
2. the clj-kondo extension then creates one in .clj-kondo/.cache (because the .clj-kondo directory exists because of 1.)
3. The clj-kondo we inject at Jack-in, for the same reasons, creates yet another on in .clj-kondo/.cache (different version subfolder)

There's a picture here that tells this story: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/calva/issues/917

Although this is to some extent going to be dealt with upstream, (hopefully as upstream as well https://github.com/clj-kondo/clj-kondo/issues/1113, but we'll see about that), we should probably consolidate our use of clj-kondo some. I know we are heading towards using the linting via clojure-lsp. Is there also a way we can use the clj-kondo analysis via the lsp, maybe? That would make it easier to use the debugger too.

clojure-lsp creates as .clj-kondo/cache here

Thanks. Updated the issue with the correct path.

I've been thinking about this for some time. Created an issue.
