Add html.suggest.hideEndTagSuggestions setting to allow users to disable automatic end tag completion suggestions. When enabled, prevents the completion provider from suggesting closing tags for open elements (e.g., </body> when typing after <body>). Fixes microsoft/vscode-html-languageservice#216 Signed-off-by: Giovanni Magliocchetti <giovimag123@gmail.com>
