Description

Talking in Discord, it was brought up that it would be cool if vscode's Outline feature were hooked up. I agree.

Anyone interested in implementing this?

I'm just guessing, but I think it would need to happen when the document is Validated? https://github.com/nushell/vscode-nushell-lang/blob/b3debe6c7aed8c7956420d7a82f3e56468ea5f7e/server/src/server.ts#L241

Research direction

Start with server/src/server.ts at the linked validation entry point and inspect how validated documents are handled. Determine where the VS Code Outline integration belongs and define completion as the extension exposing the document's outline through that path; the issue does not name tests or a more specific implementation location.
