Go to definition (documentation) for built-in classes

[saminton]

In VSCode I can use the "Go to definition" feature on any built-in class and it'll open up a .gddoc file with the documentation for it.

Super useful to see the list of all methods, signals etc without having to go Godot's documentation website each time.

Using the "Go to definition" feature in Zed it'll simply open up the list of references. I'm guessing it's a fallback as the Definition is not defined 🤷. I'm not sure where VSCode is pulling the .gddoc file from but it would be great if we could have a similar feature in Zed to access the documentation without having to leave the editor.

Zed does not give the same kind of plug-in support at the moment, I don't think it's possible in the current state of their extension system.

The intended flow for simple LSP clients is to enable https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/classes/class_editorsettings.html#class-editorsettings-property-network-language-server-show-native-symbols-in-editor and view the docs in the Godot editor.

However that is currently broken for "Go to definition" and only works with "Go to declaration".

Thanks for letting me know! I'll mention this in the README for users.

Maybe we could change the defaults in Godot 🤔 Would need checking whether it might behave odd with VSCode though.
