auto-fixes can optionally take in user input

add two ways of doing auto-fixes:

replace multiple token spans or ast spans in the code with a snippet (with user inputs filled in);
this can easily be serialized into a file.
per-fix custom "apply" function, that runs after user input..
there should be a simple registry system for this, so that they can hopefuly be serialized.

this should be future proof

Example application 1

a language server

Example application 2

# click cc test.c

At line ...
Error: .....
Fix available: click apply A1213

# click apply A1213

this could work by storing a list of the most recent suggested in the current directory
