From {knitr} v1.37, alternative Syntax for Chunk Options (#|) has been added. It would be great if VSCode-r extension supports this new syntax in code chunk via auto-completion just like quarto-vscode does.

Research direction
The issue names the VSCode-R extension, R code chunks, knitr's #| syntax, and quarto-vscode as a reference. Start by locating the extension's existing code-chunk auto-completion entry point and comparing its behavior with quarto-vscode. Done means the alternative syntax receives equivalent completion support; no file or test is identified in the issue.
