Mapping between notebook and python

[karthiknadig]

Currently Jupyter extension has a map of resource to associated Kernel. In this item we investigate how such mapping works and see if Jupyter can contribute this information to Python extension via some API, and what that API will look like. This will also define how that info will be exposed to LS.

There are two types of mappings needed:

1. Notebook URI -> Python Path
2. Text Document URI -> Notebook URI

From my reading 1 is needed to get the right packages when performing analysis. Not sure why 2 was moved into Jupyter extension, this seems to be using information available to all extension, and could be calculated independently. In either case there needs to be a way to communicate this info to LS provider.
