This extension uses a native binary (java-lsp-proxy) that wraps the JDTLS process.
We have options to define custom components paths (jdtls_launcher, lombok_jar, java_debug_jar). It would be great to also be able to define a custom path for java-lsp-proxy.
Reason:
I'm using NixOS and it doesn't follow FHS, which means native libraries aren't in standard directories and consequently the pre-built binary doesn't work:

NixOS cannot run dynamically linked executables intended for generic

This happens because java-lsp-proxy can't find the native libraries it depends on (linux-vdso.so.1, libgcc_s.so.1, libc.so.6, /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2).
If this extension had an option that would allow me to use a java-lsp-proxy binary that I compiled myself, I could work around that.
