[Improvement] Visualize unused methods or types #77

Great plugin! I noticed that it is possible to show the reference count for methods and types. Would it be possible to show that information just for unused ones? Ideally this shouldn't be aggregated with the current "Show references" setting, but rather with a new one.

Some use cases, show infos for:

unused (public) methods (excluding test methods)
unused types (without main method)

Great plugin!

Thanks!

Everythisng is possible :) But my goal is to move JDT CodeMining in JDT (see https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/126847/)

The hard thing is to provide preferences for all cases but it should keep easy to configure. And more JDT Team will decide which mining will be interesting or not.
