the correct setting to use in settings.json is "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine": "Tag Parser"

The intelliSenseMode setting is used in c_cpp_properties.json in order to have a working autocomplete with standard libraries.

I tried a lot of other suggestions, but putting "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine": "Tag Parser" in settings.json is what fixed the annoying 'include' squiggles for me.
