Having "wrong" names in workspaceSymbol (e.g. ::A instead of ::Foo::A) and missing results in code completions (e.g. ::A missing in ::^) seem equally bad.

I think the fundamental problem here is that C++ symbols (esp. enum constants) can have different names (e.g. ns::Foo::A and ns::A). We want `ns::Foo::A` for workspaceSymbols, but we also want `ns::A` for index-based code completions (sema completion would give us `ns::Foo::A` right? ). One possible solution would be adding a short name in `Symbol` (e.g. `ns::A` is a short name for `ns::Foo::A`), and index/fuzzyFind can match on both names.

drive-by nit: please pull this to a helper function.
