Yes! As an embedder you can write definition and declaration files! Declaration files are usually named like `globals.d.luau` and have a slightly different syntax than regular Luau. But it's really easy to set up global def files that you can pass to luau-lsp. Atm for my Luau runtime (seal), I have a small globals.d.luau and just bundle all the stdlib type files in a typedefs folder that gets included alongside my binary: https://github.com/deviaze/seal/tree/main/.seal

This is just because definition files don't support doc comments yet (for hovers w/ luau-lsp)
