User manual does not mention how to do "Rust Analyzer: Show RA Version" in VSCode in Troubleshooting section #11507

The manual says:

Troubleshooting

Start with looking at the rust-analyzer version. Try Rust Analyzer: Show RA Version in VS Code and rust-analyzer --version in the command line. ...

I insert "Rust Analyzer: Show RA Version" text into the source code and nothing notable happens. I search for any "Rust Analyzer" menu in "File,Edit,Selection,View,Go,Run,Terminal,Help" main menu, but I don't see anything RA-related.

I think getting Rust Analyzer version from VSCode should be described more thoroughly in the "Troubleshooting" section of the manual, as it is referred by the Github issue template and also Rust Analyzer may be the reason of user using VSCode in the first place, so advanced VSCode experience should not be assumed when contributing to Rust Analyzer.

The missing piece is that VSCode feature it be used is called "Command palette" and the default hotkey is Ctrl+Shift+P.
