Invalid config valuesInfo

You will learn how invalid configuration values are treated.

Let's say you have the following configuration:

settings.json
{
  "cursorPlus.autoInsert": {
    "hello-world": 123, // invalid key
    "enabled": "yes", // invalid value type (expected: boolean)
    "global": [""], // invalid item (string must be 1 or more characters)
    "lineEnd": [",", ";", { "text": "1" }] // last item is invalid: missing "alias" key
  },
  "cursorPlus.aliases": {
    "global": {
      "lineStart": true //  invalid value type (Deep): (expected: string)
    }
  }
}

Each invalid value will be ignored, and this is what the extension will get from your configuration:

settings.json
{
  "cursorPlus.autoInsert": {
    "lineEnd": [",", ";"]
  }
}

You won't see any error messages by CursorPlus telling you that the configuration is invalid. VSCode IntelliSense will be enough.
