         Retrieves information on all symbols/code entities (classes, methods, etc.) based on the given name path pattern.
         The returned symbol information can be used for edits or further queries.
         Specify `depth > 0` to retrieve children (e.g., methods of a class).

         A name path is a path in the symbol tree *within a source file*.
         For example, the method `my_method` defined in class `MyClass` would have the name path `MyClass/my_method`.
