[java] Inconsistent results of goto def depending on the code style

[ghostbuster91]

Describe the bug

Given a following scala code:

package hello

class Foo {

  def bar(): String = "bar"
}

object Foo {
  def baz = "SSSS"
}

and the java code in the same module:

package com.example;

import hello.*;

import java.util.List;

public class Service {

	void create(List<Object> args, Foo foo) {
		System.out.println(foo.bar()); // 1
		System.out.println(Foo$.MODULE$.baz()); // 2
                System.out.println(Foo.baz()); // 3
	}
}

Calling goto definiton on foo and bar in the // 1 case works for both of them.
Calling goto definition in the // 2 case works only on the method baz. For Foo$ and MODULE$ nothing happens. I think that both of them could navigate to the Foo object.
Calling goto definition in the // 3 case works for Foo but for baz it only works partially as editor navigates to the Foo class definition.

Below I include snippets from calling goto def. on the baz method from case 2 and 3.

For the 2nd case:

[Trace - 01:23:03 PM] Received request 'textDocument/definition - (435)'
Params: {
  "textDocument": {
    "uri": "file:///home/kghost/workspace/demos/moduleB/src/main/java/com/example/Service.java"
  },
  "position": {
    "line": 10,
    "character": 34
  }
}

    "range": {

        "character": 6
      },
      "end": {
        "line": 8,
        "character": 9
      }
    }
  }
]

For the 3rd case:

[Trace - 01:21:03 PM] Received request 'textDocument/definition - (427)'
Params: {
  "textDocument": {
    "uri": "file:///home/kghost/workspace/demos/moduleB/src/main/java/com/example/Service.java"
  },
  "position": {
    "line": 11,
    "character": 31
  }
}


[Trace - 01:21:03 PM] Sending response 'textDocument/definition - (427)'. Processing request took 3ms
Result: [
  {
    "uri": "file:///home/kghost/workspace/demos/moduleB/src/main/scala/hello/Foo.scala",
    "range": {
      "start": {
        "line": 2,
        "character": 6
      },
      "end": {
        "line": 2,
        "character": 9
      }
    }
  }
]

Expected behavior

First, I would expect that calling goto def on method baz should navigate to baz method from Foo object in both of the cases.

Second, it would be great if Foo$ and MODULE$ could also navigate to the Foo object.
