While SymbolInformation class is deprecated in the LSP specification. It is not annotated with Deprecated annotation because the TextDocumentService.documentSymbol method requires it and causes deprecated warning in the code of all users of that API.
Instead we mark all the methods/constructors as
@Deprecated so that consumers that are actually using instances of SymbolInformation get deprecated warnings, while avoiding deprecated warnings for just referring to the type.
