[analysis_server] Provide better values for active parameters in signature help

We were previously using a -1 because we don't support this, but it turns out the LSP spec changed from "number" to "uinteger" in v3.16, meaning -1 would violate some assumptions clients made.

For the case where we don't have a value, we now just use the `length` of the `parameters` list (eg. the first invalid value, which is valid according to the spec and can indicate to the client that there is no active parameter*), however I thought we could also do better by providing values for some cases (named params that we can match up, and positional params by counting only the positional params+args and matching them up).

\* The spec says clients can treat out-of-range values as 0, however VS Code doesn't highlight any parameters in that case, which is better IMO.

Dart

An approachable, portable, and productive language for high-quality apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Approachable: Develop with a strongly typed programming language that is consistent, concise, and offers modern language features like null safety and patterns.

  • Portable: Compile to ARM, x64, or RISC-V machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Compile to JavaScript or WebAssembly for the web.

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app. Diagnose app issues using DevTools.

Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:

  • Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.

  • Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
