Collapse Java-style empty hierarchies

[pumpkinlink]

• VSCode Version: 1.18.1
• OS Version: Windows 7

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open Java Project
2. Check the Explorer tree-view
3. Notice many java package directories with only one children

Reproduces without extensions: Yes

The tree-view currently looks like this

project
    src
        main
            java
                com
                    example
                        project
                            subproject
                                app
                                    jms
                                        source1.java
                                        source2.java
                                        source3.java
                                library-foo
                                        source1.java
                                        source2.java
                                        source3.java

Java IDEs and editors like Eclipse, IntelliJ, Atom and even Github and Gitlab have a feature in their tree-view/file browser interfaces to collapse directories that only have one entry in them. So the above would look like this:

project
    src/main/java/com/example/project/subproject
        app/jms
                source1.java
                source2.java
                source3.java
        library-foo
                source1.java
                source2.java
                source3.java

Yes! I love it very much. It is like:

com.example.project.subproject
    app.jms
                source1.java
                source2.java
                source3.java
    library-foo
                source1.java
                source2.java
                source3.java

I would say, /duplicate #6328

Requested same feature not seeing this one in- #41627 and mine was also closed. But I took the discussion a bit further and it was reopened. Because file nesting is a different feature.
