Await with assignment to existing variable not working

[avinizhanov]

This works fine:

try await viewModel.getDevice(id: id)

and one also works fine:

let device = try await viewModel.getDevice(id: id)

But if I try to assign result to existing variable I get error:

var device: Device?
device = try await viewModel.getDevice(id: id)

'!', <prefix expression> or '?' expected, got 'await'

Looks like problem with await, because this one also works fine:

var device: Response?
device = try viewModel.getDevice(id: id)

Plugin version: 0.17.0.123-232

Thanks! I've fixed this for the next update and reported it upstream to the Swift grammar spec: https://github.com/apple/swift-book/issues/179
