Symbol lookup sorting

[rajinder-yadav]

Type: Bug

When doing a Global symbol lookup from a Java project, it would make more sense to show closest match at the top.

This would avoid additional cursor key press to navigate to a listed entry.

Steps

1. Press CTRL + P
2. Type: Go to symbol in workspace
3. Press enter
4. Type: Arrays
