Description
Qualifiers like &, && on member functions are not shown in outline view,
but const qualifier is shown though.
Both members are shown as same foo() in outline view:
struct T
{
void foo() & {}
void foo() && {}
};
ms-vscode.cpptools 1.29.3

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in the VS Code outline view using the reported C++ struct with foo() & and foo() &&, on ms-vscode.cpptools 1.29.3 or a current checkout. Trace how the outline represents these member functions; done means the two ref-qualified overloads are displayed distinctly while const qualifiers remain shown.
