Disabling autocompletion in comments #161

Description

@Theome

When writing comments in Lua, the autocompletion suggests words while typing. This happens without a delay and after typing the first letter of a word. I found the quickly flashing suggestions very distracting and wanted to disable them.

I assumed that I could change this in the Lua section in the settings, and tried this:

    "Lua.completion.enable": false,
    "Lua.completion.showWord": "Disable",
    "Lua.completion.workspaceWord": false,

This didn't fix the issue, and I still saw the suggestions.

I opened an issue here: LuaLS/lua-language-server#2988

As noted in a comment on that issue, vscode-lua overrides the editor.quickSuggestions setting. This was unexpected to me. It would be helpful if this could be changed or documented.
