String type autocomplete doesn't work with paren

completion, paren
Code

type A = 'AAAAA' | 'BBBBBB';
type B<T extends A> = {};
type C = B<('/**/')>

Expected behavior:
'AAAAA' or 'BBBBBB'

Actual behavior:
no completions

completion cannot walkup useless node (paren type)

@RyanCavanaugh seems not a good first issue

IMO, we need to support infinite paren type or more complex type rather than special node.parent.parent,
maybe need some refactor

eg:

B<(((((('AAAAA')) | ('B/* here*/')))))>

Hmm - well if it's not, you were looking for more complex issues anyway. 😄

Hey there, I was browsing the issue list and noticed that this one had been fixed by PR #26140
I figured that the people here might want to know so that this issue can be closed.

Bump! @weswigham should this one be closed too?

Doesn't seem fixed to me. I still get generic "text in file" completions instead of string literal in the 3.9 beta playground.
