Summary
fsharp.showDocumentationin a form that matches how VS Code invokes hover command linksDocumentationForSymbolRequestthrough the Info Panel pathWhy
The Info Panel click path was not handling hover command arguments reliably, and older payloads depended on whatever cursor position happened to be active when the command ran. That is why the behavior could look timing-dependent.
With the FSAC change, the link payload can carry source context directly. This change consumes that payload in the extension and keeps the older fallback path when source context is missing.
