[tsserverlibrary] Allow reporting helpful links and error-names

Diagnostic

Suggestion

VSCode now accepts either strings or numbers alongside with a support-link as the code-property of a Diagnostic, which provides the comfort to easily open up a website showing more details about the error:

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node/blob/9466bf38aef41849b3d48a882e399a34e3127eb2/types/src/main.ts#L581-L624

It would be very awesome if TypeScript language services had the same option to not only pass a number as error-code but also strings and, most importantly, a link containing helpful info.

Use Cases

Basically whenever you use a plugin which reports errors especially when they're a tiny bit too complex to describe them in a few sentences.

Examples

        interceptor.AddMethod(
            "getSemanticDiagnostics",
            (target, delegate, fileName) =>
            {
                let diagnostics = delegate(fileName);
                diagnostics.push(
                    {
                        file: this.Program.getSourceFile(fileName),
                        start: 1,
                        length: 1,
                        messageText: "The member-ordering is incorrect.",
                        category: ts.DiagnosticCategory.Warning,
                        source: "eslint",
                        code: {
                            value: "import/order",
                            target: "https://github.com/benmosher/eslint-plugin-import/blob/master/docs/rules/order.md"
                        }
                    }
                return diagnostics;
            });

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

Inizia con i tipi Diagnostic e della language-service API di tsserverlibrary, quindi confronta la forma del loro codice Diagnostic con la definizione collegata di vscode-languageserver-node. Il lavoro è completato quando i codici Diagnostic numerici vengono preservati consentendo al contempo le forme proposte string e helpful-link per i diagnostics segnalati dai plugin; il payload non nomina file di test o di implementazione.
