Addresses #4097

Goes together with https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto/pull/599; the Quarto PR is needed to actually see this work but this PR should be able to be merged on its own.

QA Notes

In a Quarto file, you should be able to use F1 to bring up help for R like so:

help-quarto

This is only working right now for R, because of https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/5290. When we fix that, we should also confirm it works in a .qmd as well.
