[static-diagram] Show classes referenced by the current classes/objects being shown on the editor

[javierfernandes]

Currently the editor only shows the classes/objects declared on the current open file (in the editor). I would like it also to show those classes/objects internally referenced by the code. For example

class A extends X {    // x declared in another file

    method createFoo() = new Foo("blah")  // Foo also from another file
}

class B extends A {  
   method doSomething() {
       birdman.fly()           // birdman is a WKO defined in another file
   }
}

This must show:

• A and B defined in the current file
• Also X, Foo and birdman from other files.

Maybe they should be shown with a different style to differentiate them.

@javierfernandes Can we close this issue, and open a new one for Static Diagram with a DSL? So that students should be responsible for communicating

• which relations
• which variables
• which methods are important.

Why a DSL? You are introducing a new language to be learned, it will distract your students.

I have two alternate proposals: 1) Use wollok game to create a diagram builder... the challenge is how to do it without metaprogramming, :-) 2) Allow the student to create and customize diagrams from the UI, without DSLs.

Hmm... I buy it because certain relations would be the same as Wollok. I like 2) just because I haven't seen Wollok Game yet. I'll continue in #844
