JSDoc property and memberof does not work in salsa

[Thaina]

Since we cannot register intellisense by set a value directly. salsa should support @memberof or @property tag

It also useful for extension method, set a prototype like this cannot registered in intellisense

Which, I think we don't need automatic intellisense in case like this, but please provide some way we could write JSDoc to register custom member on intellisense

Will the solution for this also include support for @external (for adding a member to a type that is built-in or is from some other module)?

https://jsdoc.app/tags-external.html

Or perhaps there is already some other open issue for such or we can create one. Thank you.

Kind of a workaround, maybe...

class Value {
  constructor() {
    Object.defineProperty( this, 'id', { value: _nextId ++ } );
    /** @type {number} id */
    this.id;
  }
}

... but this.id; remains in the production source code, which doesn't feel great. Would be wonderful to be able to write this instead:

/**
 * @property {number} id
 */
class Value {
  constructor() {
    Object.defineProperty( this, 'id', { value: _nextId ++ } );
  }
}

I'm investigating setting up type definitions for a large project (https://threejs.org/) and this issue appears to be a blocker, unfortunately. If this is something for which a PR would be welcome and possible, please let us know!
