I found one instance of a variable called "packagesFile" and well, I pulled that thread :/ There is a nice functional simplification here: The `_findPackagesFile` function returned a `_PackagesFile` object, which contained both a `Folder parent` and a `File file`. The latter was never referenced, so simplification 1. Also, the reason to have an object that stores both is that this object handled both `.packages` files, whose immediate parent is `parent`, and `package_config.json` files, whose _grandparent_ is `parent`. But with the distinction gone, we don't need this `_PackagesFile` class, and `_findPackagesFile` can instead return the folder, and be renamed `_findFolderWithPackageConfigFile`.

analysis_server
A long-running process that provides analysis results to other tools.
The analysis server is designed to provide on-going analysis of one or more code bases as those code bases are changing.
Using the server
The analysis server is not intended to be used stand-alone, and therefore does not have a human-friendly user interface.
Clients (typically tools, such as an editor) are expected to run the analysis
server in a separate process and communicate with it using a JSON protocol. The
original protocol is specified in the file analysis_server/doc/api.html
and Language Server Protocol support is documented in
tool/lsp_spec/README.md.
