Create a XAML language service

It would be awesome to start working towards a proper XAML editor in VS Code. A few things off the top of my head that this would need to accomplish: 1. Provide intellisense when user is editing xaml files 2. Provide syntax highlighting 3. Not be tied to a particular XAML dialect, and be extensible so we can build UWP/WPF/Xamarin.Forms/Avalonia experiences inside VS Code on top of it. I'm not entirely familiar with how a VS code language service operates. I've only very briefly dabbled with them a few months ago, but I feel like the Omnisharp project is the right place for this to reside. /cc @kekekeks @michael-hawker @danwalmsley @grokys
