No IntelliSense for Express in MERN starter kit

[chrisdias]

• VSCode Version: Insiders 1.11.0
• OS Version: Mac OS

Steps to Reproduce:

1. scaffold out new MERN app:

    npm install -g mern-cli
    mern init myApp
    cd myApp
    npm install
    code-insiders .

2. Open server/server.js
3. After line 15 type in app.

Result: textual completions (you don't get completions for Express)

4. Now, change import to lowercase express and change instantiation to remove new.

Result: IntelliSense works.

@chrisdias This is a bug in the starter kit. According the express API documentation http://expressjs.com/de/api.html#express you create an express app by calling the top level express() function. This is a top-level function and not an object constructor and it therefore should be called as a function.

I suggest to make a PR against the MERN starter kit.
