Support custom clickable links in eslint error tooltips #1887

There are some eslint rules which allow custom, explanatory error messages on rule violations. For example:

In these custom messages, sometimes it's helpful to refer to specific files within the repo...

It would be amazing if links or file paths within eslint error messages could be rendered as clickable links within the tooltip, similar to the eslint(rule-name) link which appears right at the end of the message (which I can't customise without creating a whole new custom rule).

This requires that VS Code itself supports markdown in diagnostics. See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/54272
