Support Eclipse "References" command to find/show all usage of a definition

Request from Saul Margolis:

A useful Eclipse feature for Java and other languages. It would be helpful to support this in SwagEdit. This is Ctrl+Shift+G "Find References" in Window/JDT. Also works in RAPID-ML and other XText-based editors.

I think the implementation of this feature also provides some of the work required to support Refactoring (see #220), another useful capability.

I completely agree that "find references" is very useful. In Eclipse it has severals levels: screen shot 2016-10-06 at 1 14 05 pm

Do we want to support all of them with the same look-n-feel? Or, will "Find Reference in Workspace" be sufficient?

We can decide and prioritize later, this is not in scope for a current sprint.
