Description

Copied from https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-dotnettools/issues/781

### Describe the feature you'd like

In Visual Studio when I hover over a type (`FullAuditedAggregateRoot` in this screenshot), a tooltip shows up. In this tooltip, I can click on any type that appears to go to the decompiled file or the source code of that type.

It's not the case in VS Code, in which every tooltip of a type is readonly. Yes its texts can be selected, but no clickable links are provided.

Can VS Code have the same behavior as in Visual Studio?
