This implements the change described by @mjbvz here. Maybe some JSDoc tags should be returned when requesting quick info for a JSDoc node? I don't know when it would be desirable though. It seems that they always describe an associated node and not itself. The "itself" description gets still returned as part of the documentation string

verify.quickInfoAt("2", "(parameter) x: any", "Does the thing", [{ name: "param", text: "x Does the thing" }]);

I think that this isn't particularly desirable result either. It still contains duplicate information. I think this should be fixed as part of #57819 though and not here
