Summary: Should index X::Y() as well as Y()

Initial Comment:
For C++ and other OO languages, we should index both
the full scoped name of the function (ie
Class::Function()) as well as just Function().

This looks easy(ish) to do - ctags already spits out
the class of a method in the extended information, and
it would be easy to insert another entry for the full
name.  References would be harder - it's much more
difficult if not impossible to determine what function
a callsite will actually resolve to except by doing a
full compile.  So we might have to settle for indexing
the declarations of the fully scoped names but not the
references, or strip out scope when running ident.

Also C++ namespace scoping does not work... and is similar
in syntax.. not sure if another bug should be created or not...

//in somefile.h
namespace ns{ class Foo{};};

//in some_other_file.cpp
void func(){
   ns::Foo f;  //<-- will not be linked 
}

unfortunately, his affects about 90% of my code...
