Description

The intelephense language server can generate doc blocks with auto completion on /**.

If i use the default neovim lsp omnifunc i get the doc block suggested. Completion-nvim however does not trigger any completion on /**

i tried let g:completion_trigger_character = ['/**'], but it did not make any difference

can i trigger the completion menu manually ? the default omnifunc does not process textEdits ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the trigger character handling in completion nvim, particularly for custom triggers like '/**'. Check if the LSP client is sending textDocument/completion on that trigger.
