Outline plugin should differentiate by visibility and member type #498

Description

@Nine-H

I'm documenting a vala project and I realised that the reason why outline has been so useless to me is that when I'm using outline to review the code of a class I've been trying to understand an instance of I just need the public members not the internal stuff but there's no clear way to understand what's public or private from the outline plugin. I had a few ideas about how to fix this but it's a design task, and I don't really do mockups.

  • icons: most aesthetic, requires excessive design
  • collapsible tree for public and private: gets stuff out of the way
  • format the labels in UML: quick, easy, unambiguous, not beginner friendly
