Description
Type: Feature Request
I would like the Outline view to display an icon marker showing whether a method is private/public/protected, static or not, final or not, synchronized or not, etc. Generally when looking at a class outline, I want to quickly see which methods are public and which aren't.

Research direction
The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the Java Outline view in the vscode-java extension and checking how symbols are presented. Done means the Outline view visibly distinguishes public, private, and protected methods, with the requested additional modifier indicators clarified and covered by tests.
