Description
The Dart SDK and the VSCode extension of Dart are supported with the Inlay hints. The IntelliJ plugin should follow the same.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the Dart SDK commits and the linked Dart-Code issues to identify the intended inlay-hint behavior. Then inspect the flutter-intellij plugin's existing Dart editor integration and compare it with the IntelliJ inlay-hints APIs. Done means the IntelliJ plugin provides the requested variable-type, parameter-name, and related hints consistently with the referenced Dart tooling.
