To me it seems both the current and the proposed approaches are too
complex for newbies, but quite straightforward to write with a little
bit of elisp knowledge.  So maybe it is enough to add some simple
examples to the documentation.

Or we could have two variables defining server-programs:
eglot-user-server-programs and eglot-server-programs (alternatively
eglot-server-programs and eglot-default-server-programs.  Where the
former is only set by the users and it takes precedence over the latter
if there is a match in it.  But it is possible that I'm once again
overthinking this.
