Hover preview incorrectly narrows union of literal and type

How are you using the lua-language-server?

Visual Studio Code Extension (sumneko.lua)

Which OS are you using?

Linux

What is the issue affecting?

Hover

Expected Behaviour

---@alias inttype -1 | 0 | integer
---@type inttype
local intvar = 1
---@alias stringtype "a" | "b" | string
---@type stringtype
local stringvar = "x"

I expect the hover previews for inttype, intvar, stringtype, and stringvar to show the full expansion of the intttype and stringtype aliases, something like

inttype:
    | -1
    | 0
    | integer

and

stringtype:
    | "a"
    | "b"
    | string

Actual Behaviour

The rendered preview of the type aliases omits the overall type:

inttype:
    | -1
    | 0

and

stringtype:
    | "a"
    | "b"

This is especially weird because if those were the actual type definitions then the two assignments in the example would be type errors, which they are not.

Reproduction steps

Put the code above into a Lua file in vscode with the language server extension running. Hover over the type aliases and the variables. The problem happens with just one literal in each union, two aren't required but I thought they illustrated the preview problem better.

Additional Notes

The reason I want to make "useless" union types like this is for hinting to humans that those specific values are special in some way.

Reproduziere das Problem in einer Lua-Datei, die in der Visual Studio Code-Erweiterung geöffnet ist, indem du mit dem Mauszeiger über die im Bericht gezeigten Aliase und Variablen fährst. Verfolge den Pfad für die Darstellung von Typen beim Hover für Unions, die Literalwerte mit integer oder string kombinieren, und überprüfe, dass die Vorschauen neben den Literal-Mitgliedern auch den Gesamttyp beibehalten.
