API for Alternate Python Language Servers

[kinto0]

It was mentioned here that there could soon an API that will support alternate language servers.

I would be super excited about integrating my language server into the python extension and am happy to help as much as I can. The only alternative I can imagine without this API is modifying user settings with the configuration api (setting python.languageServer to None) before spinning up our own extension.

I'm starting this thread since I don't already see any public discussion about this but please let me know if I'm duplicating anything.
