Workspace root is incorrect (KotlinLanguageServer)

I am trying to use the KotlinLanguageServer but there are a lot of Unresolved references coming back because the Client is sending the incorrect workspace. Is there a way to force the workspace? Seems like this would be a pretty standard problem for jvm based languages since it's setting the directory the source is in as the root dir.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "window/logMessage",
  "params": {
    "type": 3,
    "message": "client    Searching for dependencies in workspace root /Users/vito-c/code/kotlin-akka/src/main/kotlin/koala"
  }
}

it should be /Users/vito-c/code/kotlin-akka/

If you wanted to attempt to imply the root dir you could search for the git dir... https://github.com/vito-c/pirate-vim/blob/90457014a236c1a67d474a90979ba6ad8c8b2747/rc/git.vim#L11-L24 though it should still be configurable via an override.

There are two ways you can customize the project root path,

1. If launching manually, you can use something like :LanguageClientStart rootPath=/Users/...
2. https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim/blob/53ce2fee7d24dd9262ea783908e2edebc71635dc/doc/LanguageClient.txt#L249-L265

As a fallback, when root path cannot be queried from approaches above, this plugin uses a simple heuristic approach to determine root path, https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim/blob/53ce2fee7d24dd9262ea783908e2edebc71635dc/src/utils.rs#L44-L71

which definitely has flaws. I have no clue how your code is organized or how kotlin project should be organized. So please suggest if you can help with this heuristic approach.

I will prepare a PR. :)
