.vscode/.tags never generated.

It should be generated. You have to specify the file name to readtags command.

"ctags-companion.command": "ctags -R --fields=+nKz -f .vscode/.tags --langmap=Verilog:+.v",

A fix is removing -f .vscode/.tags option.

"ctags-companion.command": "ctags -R --fields=+nKz --langmap=Verilog:+.v",

And .v is mapped to Verilog by default. More simply you can use the default setting of ctags-companion.command (if you use old Verilog syntax only).
