Issue Type: Bug

Steps to reproduce

• Create a TypeScript file.
• Create a type alias with some name, and write a JSDoc comment for it.
• For types and functions:
  • Create a function with the same name, write a different JSDoc comment.
  • Hover over the type name. You will see the function’s comment, followed by the type’s comment.
  • Hover over the function. You will only see the function’s comment.
• For types and values:
  • Create a value identifier with the same name, write a different JSDoc comment.
  • Hover over the type name. You will see the type’s comment, followed by the value’s comment.
  • Hover over the value identifier. You will see the type’s comment, followed by the value’s comment.

Beginne damit, die Referenz-TypeScript-Datei zu reproduzieren, und vergleiche die Quickinfo-Ergebnisse für das Typ/Wert-Paar mit denen für das Typ/Funktions-Paar. Verfolge anschließend die an diesen Hovers beteiligte Quickinfo- und JSDoc-Verarbeitung, füge dann Regressionstests für die erwarteten Tooltip-Kommentare hinzu und überprüfe, dass jede Deklaration die entsprechende Dokumentation anzeigt.
