[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Add more info to the goto symbol popup (#1398)

To expand on #950 and #1069...

As a Python programmer, I find that the goto symbol popup is considerably more useful to me with a change like this:

```
-			text = g_markup_printf_escaped(_("%s: %lu"), fname, tmtag->line);
+			text = g_markup_printf_escaped(
+				_("%s\n<small>%s: %lu</small>"),
+				tmtag->scope, fname, tmtag->line);
```

because then I can immediately see the name of the class containing the tag, which is useful when I have 10 different classes with an `execute` method in each of them.

But this doesn’t work in many other cases (even in Python).

Then of course, `TMTag` has a bunch of other fields that might also be very useful.

Maybe there’s a way to put this information to good use without breaking the current use cases? Maybe a preference?
