Many people like as-you-type completion.
I think we must make it an option instead of switching it off.

> Currently the completion list opens whenever there's assistants available. That is way too agressive (e.g. when just moving the cursor somewhere, the completion list opens). Also you can barely type a line (or even character) without creating a problem, with an associated clang fixit, which invokes completion. This patch attempts to tackle these problems with two changes:
>  - assistant actions now have a flag telling whether they should be shown automatically. This is only set to "on" for the rename assistant currently. Other assistants are only shown when you invoke completion in some other way (e.g. Ctrl+Space).
>  - problem-associated assistants are only shown when the revision they are associated with matches the current document revision. This avoids showing assistants while the user is typing (e.g. "add semicolon" when the user has in fact already typed the semicolon).
