Entities package quick documentation not showing up when hovering over components using code editors

We are aware of this limitation. A possible workaround (not ideal though) would be to enable "Generate all .csproj files" under "Working in Unity/Editor Features/Preferences/External Tools" (see the docs https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Preferences.html#external-tools) We plan to revisit this in the next versions.

How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached “EntitiesCodeEditor.zip” project
2. Navigate to Edit>Preferences>External Tools and set the External Script Editor to VS Code, VS or Rider
3. Open the script “EntitiesTest.cs” under Assets>EntitiesTest.cs
4. Hover over the Entity class name
5. Observe the result

Expected result: Quick documentation appears when hovering over component name
Actual result: No visible documentation appears when hovering over component name

Reproducible in: 2021.3.42f1, 2022.3.41f1, 6000.0.15f1

Reproducible on: Windows 10, Windows 11
Not reproducible on: No other environments tested
