Description:
Workbench suggests the TIMESTAMP type incorrectly. 

How to repeat:
 - Create a new column in a new table, 
 - set the type to "TIMEST" and observe how auto-complete 
    suggests "TIMESTAMP()",
 - select the suggestion, filrling in TIMESTAMP() as a type
 - jump to the next column and observe how the type gets 
    reverted to the previous value as TIMESTAMP() is not  a
    correct datatype.

Suggested fix:
Change the autocomplete suggestion to the correct "TIMESTAMP"

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 8.0.11 release, and here's the changelog entry:

Code completion did not provide a suggestion for the SELECT statement or
for system variables. In addition, types like TIMESTAMP were completed
with the wrong type values.

Thank you for the bug report.
