Description

Examples

/**
 * @param a A doc
 * @param b B doc
 */
type F = (a: number, b: number) => number;

Hover over a or b -- I would expect to see parameter documentation.
It would also be nice to get it at a in const f: F = (a, b) => a + b;.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the two hover examples from the issue and inspect the existing handling for @param documentation; done means parameter documentation appears when hovering over a function type's parameters and over parameters in a value typed with that function type.
