[Github-comments] [geany/geany] C++ global constant names show up as "Variables" in "Symbols" pane on sidebar (#1443)

Aren't literals the only "constants" in C++? I think everything else are just variables who's types are qualified with `const` or `volatile` or such. While the name "variable" is unfortunate, much like "type variables" in type theory, it's a widely used term in C++.

IMO it would be cool to have a different icon in the Symbols sidebar for objects with different type qualifiers/specifiers, or maybe like a little lock or something next variables with immutable types.
