Add support for type inferences

Spyder Version: 2.2.0dev
Python Version: 2.7.2
Qt Version: 4.7.4, PyQt4 (API v1) 4.8.6 on Windows

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Type hints are not available in the following code scenario:
def function( x, y ):
z = MyType()
z. # Yay, call tips!
x. # No call tips here!

A few different IDEs seem to be using a similar approach to providing type inferences like such:
def function( x, y ):
z = MyType()
z. # Yay, call tips!
assert isinstance( x, MyOtherType )
x. # Yay, now I have call tips!

I started a thread previously about this issue here: http://groups.google.com/group/spyderlib/browse_thread/thread/90d7785c775bf0aa I also briefly asked about the possibility of this on the rope groups here: http://groups.google.com/group/rope-dev/browse_thread/thread/2c214d37df2f7242# Not knowing much about rope this didn't mean too much to me.

This is a very compelling feature to have!

This should be solved on the PyLS/Kite side of things. No @ccordoba12 ?

Yeah, it's not something we can solve here.
