Description

i've done work to improve the properties intellisense perf, but now need to focus on values. they're using TypeScript's own getCompletionsAtPosition which can be quite costly re: type checking. build the list ourselves, we have all the info.

Research direction

Start by locating the value-completion entry point that calls TypeScript's getCompletionsAtPosition, then compare it with the existing properties IntelliSense work. Replace the costly value lookup with a project-built list using the available information, and verify that value completions still work with improved performance.
