JSDoc @type does not attach to for loop variable declarations

Bug Report

From what I could tell, this is a common pattern with JSDoc used to properly document the type of a loop variable. It does not seem to work in VSCode.

🕗 Version & Regression Information

• This is the behavior in every version I tried, and I reviewed the FAQ for entries about JSDoc.

💻 Code

for (/** @type {HTMLElement} */ const e of document.body.querySelectorAll('.test')) {
    e.style.display = 'none';
}

🙁 Actual behavior

e is typed as Element

🙂 Expected behavior

e should be typed as HTMLElement, as I have overridden it via @type.

As an example, if I were to change the code to this:

/** @type {HTMLElement} */ const e = document.body.querySelectorAll('.test');

VSCode correctly picks up that I'm wishing to override e as an HTMLElement (and complains about missing interface implementations, but, that's not the issue here - in fact that's expected!)
