As part of the code completion redesign this new entry point is going to replace use of: - `typeCheckExpression` - `getTypeOfExpressionWithoutApplying` (which could be removed) and possibly other methods currently used to retrieve information for code completion purposes. Advantages of a new approach: - Avoids mutating AST; - Allows to avoid sub-expression type-checking; - Allows code completion access to multiple solutions in ambiguous cases; - Provides all possible solutions - valid and invalid (with holes); - Allows code completion to easily access not only types but overload choices and other supplimentary information associated with each solution.
