Language server auto-install doesn't trigger for *.js and *.css files (perhaps others) if not associated with the bundled simple file types in Community Edition IDEs #1139

Description

@SCWells72

The auto-installer doesn't kick in properly for *.js and *.css files in IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition if those extensions are not associated with the bundled JavaScript and CSS simple file types respectively. In my case, those are not associated with concrete file types, and the corresponding TextMate Bundles are enabled. That provides significantly better syntax highlighting. This means that the user must add the respective wildcard to the File name patterns tab when creating the language server for it to work for those file extensions. It would be better if those were added by extension wildcard and not file type since it's not guaranteed that those file types will be associated with respective extensions.
