Description
[Let me preface this by admitting that I do not know whether I should post the feature request or on Radian's github. Also, great stuff, thank you for all the work!]
I'm thinking that something that could be convenient would be to have ls highlighting/color-coding in Radian's terminal so that one is easily able to see which objects are functions vs lists vs dataframes, etc. I believe this shouldn't be too hard to implement, as such solutions exist quite readily in bash/zsh for instance.

Research direction
First determine whether this belongs in vscode-R or Radian, then inspect the existing terminal integration and how R objects are represented there. Compare the requested behavior with the bash/zsh examples mentioned in the issue; done means the Radian terminal visibly distinguishes functions, lists, data frames, and other requested object types.
