Bug description:  Typed variables and class members

Description:
------------
Currently it is possible to specify class types for function arguments. It
would be very helpful to also add an ability to set types for function
return values, variables (local and global) and especially for class
members. In general - to improve types checking when it is required by
programmer, it will help to eliminate hidden errors that are sometimes hard
to find now. For example:

  class Foo {
    private Foo $next;

    function Foo getNext() {
      return $this->next;
    }
  }

  class Bar {
    private Foo $foo;

    function doo(Foo $prevFoo) {
      Foo $newFoo = $prevFoo->getNext();
      $this->foo = $newFoo;
    }
  }
