TypeScript statement completion with symbols does not always work #311

Description

@leidegre

This is in reference to this issue that I originally opened with the VS Code team. All the information you need can be found in that issue.

The problem for me is that a TypeScript type with symbols only doesn't get proper completions. I have to either disable the IntelliCode extension or change the IntelliCode setting vsintellicode.typescript.completionsEnabled to false to get correct suggestions.

There's also a odd empty suggestion, that if you try to use that inserts an emoji star. I think this is a bug (or several) and it's related to some issue with IntelliCode dealing with object types where symbols (not strings) are being used as keys.

There are no more suggestions offered than those shown in the screenshot above.
