Research direction

Start with the TypeScript/JSDoc handling for the provided function example and trace how misspelled @param names and references are currently processed. Determine where diagnostics and quickfixes for these mismatches are produced. Done means the example reports the spelling error and offers a correction for either occurrence, with appropriate tests added for both cases.
