Description

Signature help, which shows when starting to type arguments in a function call, includes the labels of said arguments, but the Hover info for functions does not (shows only the function type, no labels).

It would make the hover information more useful if it also included argument labels.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the LSP handler for hover info, find where signature help includes labels, and adapt the hover response to include argument labels.
