Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
@kokobd had pointed this out. When you expand selection(using `shift+alt+right arrow`) from within a comment, expand selection does not work on comments.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
It is because comments are not included in HieAST, which we use for constructing ranges in the `hls-selection-range-plugin`. `Annotated ParsedSource` can be used to handle structures not in `HieAST` properly.
