valid-types can't work with inline param names

[dietergeerts]

The following type, which was valid with the built-in eslint valid-jsdoc rule, is not valid:

@returns {function(myParam:string): number}

We have this a lot, as it gives extra meaning to the params needed without having to create @callback blocks all the time.

Please refer to JSDoc documentation that shows this to be a valid example.

@dietergeerts , is that Typescript or Closure?

[brettz9]

Looks like this is a Closure type expression... https://github.com/google/closure-compiler/wiki/Annotating-JavaScript-for-the-Closure-Compiler#function-return-type

Please file an issue with https://github.com/jsdoctypeparser/jsdoctypeparser/ .

If such types are accepted in TypeScript as well, mention could be made at jsdoctypeparser/jsdoctypeparser#50 for an issue tracking TypeScript progress. I will close as such changes should be made in that library instead. Note that some function types have already been supported, but not of the nature you described.
