    Description

      "auto" variable doesn't show correct tooltip in text editor.

      Example code:

      #include <QString>
int main()
{
    QString str1;
    auto str2 = str1;
    str2.append("a");
    return 1;
}

      If you move your mouse on str1 - you will see correct tooltip that this variable is QString, but if you move mouse on str2 then you won't see this and only see tooltip message with the name of variable("str2"), like it some template variable.
