Description

Coped from the issue: https://github.com/bmewburn/vscode-intelephense/issues/1813 @bmewburn

Feature description or problem with existing feature
Sometime I want to find only implementations/extensions of methods or only calls. Sometime I want to find all implementations and calls. The result doesn't split these categories.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would see marked categories of methods (an implementation, a call, an interface, if it is possible then an extension, uses, an initialization, declarations) or split calls, implementations, interfaces, etc. Also filtration of the result by these categories.

Research direction

Start with the copied feature description and attached screenshots, then determine which reference categories and filtering behavior the protocol must standardize. Done requires an agreed scope and documented protocol design, since this issue names no files, tests, or implementation entry point.
