More intelligent table name completion for the TYPO3 CMS IDEA Plugin

Applies to first method arguments automatically

The IntelliJ IDEA / PHPStorm Plugin for TYPO3 now tries to infer where the table name completion is needed. Thanks to a suggestion of Claus Due on GitHub, the plugin now partially evaluates the context when the completion is triggered and if the first argument name is one of $table or $tableName, it automatically suggests all tables registered through ext_tables.sql.

This improvement should make it much easier for developers to write DB and TCA related code much quicker and with more confidence.

One thing that's on my mind, is another index of TYPO3 API methods that need the Tables name on another position, but I need your help finding those - please participate on the corresponding GitHub issue to have another method included.
