fix: use Result type aliases in "Wrap return type in Result" assist

This commit makes the "Wrap return type in Result" assist prefer type aliases of standard library
type when the are in scope, use at least one generic parameter, and have the name "Result".

The last restriction was made in an attempt to avoid false assumptions about which type the
user is referring to, but that might be overly strict. We could also do something like this, in
order of priority:

* Use the alias named "Result".
* Use any alias if only a single one is in scope, otherwise:
* Use the standard library type.

This is easy to add if others feel differently that is appropriate, just let me know.
