Re: Support for auto-completion etc

[makepost firemail cc]

VS Code JavaScript support has been at the level of TypeScript, since 
last year or so it started using the TS compiler for JS internally. 
YouCompleteMe deprecated Tern support and is moving to TypeScript as 
well, see the project's homepage. Try adding this to your tsconfig.json 
and reload:

```
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "esnext",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "allowJs": true,
    "checkJs": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "strict": true,
    "noUnusedLocals": true,
    "noUnusedParameters": true,
    "noImplicitReturns": true,
    "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true
  },
  "include": [
    "node_modules/ts-for-gjs/out/index.d.ts",
    "bin",
    "src"
  ]
}
```
