Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating the C/C++ extension's hover popup implementation and determine how Doxygen text should be surfaced for #include and editor-file hovers; done means both popup cases show the relevant documentation.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
