No, it's enabled by default. Last I built Emacs, it took me more than an hour to build.
The default branch has native-compilation, tree-sitter, and json enabled. See here for the enabled flags:
https://github.com/alexmurray/emacs-snap/blob/master/snapcra...
Eh, I've been looking and haven't found anything for other editors that actually tries to use TreeSitter for anything beyond highlighting. The Emacs structural editing packages are still very WIP but at least they exist.
(And also some have been based on the out of tree implementation that's been around for a while now)

I am a long-time Emacs user and used to maintain my own config, but I switched to Doom Emacs [1] a year ago. Doom Emacs is like a pre-packaged/pre-configured emacs distro. You still need to configure the features that you want to use, but it's a lot easier (and faster) than having to do everything from scratch, and definitely if you already have some emacs background anyway. For me, it makes the newer, more advanced, features more accessible. Since switching, I started to use Emacs more again.

I use containers on Mac and Windows for development (and we deploy on linux). Docker for Mac is _unusably_ slow in my experience. The VM that it runs is a giant resource hog and a battery hog, and doesn't support ipv6 [0] Docker Desktop itself is (another) resource hog, wildly buggy, and painfully slow. It's the epitome of "shitty electron app".
On windows, docker desktop has all of the same issues as it does on mac. Docker's concept of volumes and file permissions on windows are nonsense. Windows updates and Docker Desktop regularly decide to disagree, [1] It's networking support interferes with other applications (like OpenVPN and the Xbox Game Center) [2].

Oh, I just realized I'm using https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus . I recommend using that over the default formula.
Emacs has code peek.
With lsp-mode it has that little window: https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-ui/#lsp-ui-peek
Personally I use eglot with consult which temporarily switches the entire buffer to do the "peek" functionality rather than popping up a tiny window: https://github.com/minad/consult

Then it would just have a dependency on Clang, and you couldn't use Emacs at all (since you can't use Clang).
AFAIK, the only alternative to the clangd language server is ccls: https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls
