JSON Reference Navigator

This is a VSCode extension to allow you to navigate between local JSON files using [JSON References](https://github.com/matsoob/jsonrefnavigator/blob/HEAD/(https:/redocly.com/docs/resources/ref-guide#json); this should be particularly useful for navigating JSON schema repositories (as they often make heavy use of JSON references), but maybe you'll find other uses too!

Currently this only supports a very limited syntax:

• Where the reference path is local
• Where the reference path is relative from the root of the VSCode workspace
• Where the reference is to a whole JSON object

I can look to support more types of navigation if this proves useful :-)

Features

You should get a tooltip with a hyperlink to the target file:

Which should allow you to navigate to the target file:

Or create it in the target location if it doesn't exist already:
