C programming - static function reference when control clicked from file1.c results in pop up which shows all references of that function name used in different files

[vasanthmurari]

Issue Type: Bug

I have a static function static_function_1() in file file1.c. I also have another static function with same name static_function_1() but in file file2.c. When I lookup for that function by ctrl + mouse click on file1.c, VS code pops up a window with results from file1.c and file2.c. Ideally, I would only expect VS code to navigate directly to the definition in file1.c.

Ideally, static functions are not visible outside the file, hence, for better code browsing, it is not necessary to list static functions from different file when control + click is performed.
