Description

Hi gleam team,

I would like to suggest support inlay hint feature in vscode-gleam. This feature be supported in most of popular programming languages (e.g. Rust, Go, etc.) It would save us much time to hover over the variables/functions to check the types.

Looking forward to hearing from your reply !
