Description
On RStudio or radian, we will see a candidate like package::, and we don't have to type :: ourselves when writing a function name without omitting the package name package::function().

I wonder if languageserver could present such candidates.

Research direction
Start by reading issue #523 and locating the language server's completion entry point. Reproduce the package:: behavior described for RStudio or radian, then identify the relevant completion tests. Done means a package name produces a package:: candidate so function completion can continue without manually typing the separator.
