Part of #2094

Checklist for the LIGO Language Server

  • I checked whether I need to update the README.md file for the plugin and did so if necessary:
    • If I implemented a new LSP request, I added it to the list of supported features that may be disabled
    • If I implemented a new LSP method, I added it to the list of supported functionality
  • I checked that my changes work in Emacs, Vim, and Visual Studio Code
  • (Before merging) The commit history is squashed and prettified, and follows the Serokell commit policy, or the MR is set to squash the commits

Description

To do this we're inserting [@comment "..."] attributes during a lexer self-pass.

Adopt Nanopasses.Trivial.To_core. so it allows such attributes everywhere and saves them to Ast where needed.

Adopt scopes definition pass so it remembers attributes.

Obtain attributes of a hovered object, if needed add a markdown for this comment to the returned list of hovers.
