Issue Description:

class C : NSObject, UITableViewDataSource {
    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, 
        numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
            return 1
    }
    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, 
        cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
            return UITableViewCell()
    }
    func test() {
        _ = self.tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
        // error: ambiguous reference 
        // to member 'tableView(_:numberOfRowsInSection:)'
    }
}

There's no ambiguous reference to anything. The problem, quite unambiguously, is that `self.tableView` is not a thing.

self.tableView is a thing; in fact it's many things: all of the delegate functions. But the compiler should say that, and not just pick one of them and pretend it's what you typed.
