Generate "compile_commands.json" for LSP ready IDEs

See original GitHub issue

The following command generates the requires files for LSP for plugins like coc-nvim:
pio project init --board my_board --ide vim --project-option "framework=arduino" Problem is, after mutating the platformio.ini and adding libraries, the .ccls file is not kept updated.
How to make it so that all these auxiliary helper files get updated when project dependencies change? I was able to do it with
initing again.
Aside from that, I don’t think the .ccls file should be dependent on project libs alone. Maybe the source does not use a library, so its deps should not be handled by ccls.

Yes, it makes sense to generate compile_commands.json in the root of project.

See updated docs https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/integration/compile_commands.html

Key changes:

The latest PlatformIO Core generates a compilation database in the project root
The new build environment was added to include toolchain paths. See docs for details.

Please confirm that it works now upgrading to the latest development version of PIO Core using pio upgrade --dev. Thanks!
