Description

Problem*

Resolves #1899

Summary*

When we encounter foo.bar where foo is a reference, we automatically dereference foo, transforming the code into (*foo).bar. When this happens, we previously accidentally set the type of foo to T and *foo to &mut T instead of the reverse. I've switched the two cases.
