ipymagic: terminal Tab-completion overlay (Option A), and a real path bug

Browse Source 
Adds the terminal-native picker: typing the trigger and pressing Tab pops
IPython's own completion menu (same widget, works in a real terminal or a
notebook -- ipykernel's completion goes through the same IPCompleter
matcher pipeline) instead of the Qt modal. Two triggers:

  "..."   component mode: Recent, Recommended (FrequencyCounts-ranked),
          then a live substring-filterable walk of the namespace tree.
  "...h"  command mode (mnemonic: history): Recent/Recommended prior
          *commands* (eco.logs.recent_commands/frequent_commands) -- no
          namespace section, nothing to browse there.

Selecting an entry only ever inserts text at the cursor -- it never
executes, in either mode -- so the rest of the line can still be composed/
edited before submitting. This composes with the existing Qt-modal `...`
mechanism rather than conflicting with it: accepting a completion replaces
`...` in the buffer before the line is ever submitted, so if you don't use
Tab and just hit Enter, the AST-transform fallback still applies to
whatever literal `...` is left.

Real bug found while building this and wiring it through a live
IPCompleter (not just unit tests): eco.widgets.component_selector's
ComponentNode.name (and so pick_component_modal's return value) is
relative to `root` (confirmed against Alias.get_full_name(base=...), which
stops at base) -- not a standalone, globally-evaluable expression the way
this module had assumed everywhere. Both the Qt-modal path (_EllipsisPicker)
and this new completer were splicing that relative fragment in directly,
silently dropping the root's own name from the printed/inserted code.
Fixed with _full_path(root, relative_path), which reattaches the name
`root` is actually bound to (its own `.name`, matching this codebase's
`import eco.bernina as bernina` convention) -- verified against a real
IPCompleter.complete() call, not just the mocked unit tests, which is
exactly what surfaced the bug in the first place (a hand-fed "already
correct" path in the earlier Qt smoke test had been masking it).

Also fixed the smoke-test script that had encoded the same wrong
assumption, for anyone re-running it later.

silent auto-pick).
Deliberately namespace-tree-only for now -- see the module TODO below for
picking from prior *commands* (eco.logs' kernel history) as a planned
second mode, likely via a different trigger so the two don't collide.
Terminal overlay (Tab-completion mode)
--------------------------------------
In a real terminal (or a notebook -- ipykernel's completion goes through
the same IPCompleter matcher pipeline), typing the trigger and pressing
Tab pops IPython's own native completion menu -- the same widget/rendering
Python attribute completion already uses -- populated with three sections
instead of attributes: Recent, Recommended (ranked by actual use-count via
`eco.elements.recent.FrequencyCounts`, not just recency), and (component
mode only) a live, filterable walk of the whole namespace tree. This is
the preferred way to pick something in a terminal: it never blocks on a
Qt window, and -- critically -- it only ever *inserts text at the cursor*,
never executes anything, so you can keep composing/editing the line and
submit whenever you're ready yourself:
In [1]: (1 / ...<TAB>
.bernina.mono.energy recent
.bernina.attenuator.transmission recommended
.bernina.slit1.width namespace
In [1]: (1 / bernina.mono.energy
Typing more after the trigger (`...ene<TAB>`) narrows the namespace
section by substring match; Recent/Recommended stay unfiltered (picking
something you use constantly shouldn't require spelling it first).
A second trigger, `...h` (mnemonic: history), does the same for prior
*commands* (`eco.logs.recent_commands`/`frequent_commands`) instead of
components -- no namespace section (commands have no tree to browse), and
picking one always just inserts its text for further editing, the same
"never auto-executes" rule as components. Both share one on/off switch
(`start()`/`stop()`); there's no separate flag for the completion path
since it always inserts rather than executes, so there's nothing about it
that needs its own opt-out.
If you never press Tab and just hit Enter with a literal `...` still in
the line, the `...`-in-an-expression mechanism above (the Qt modal picker)
still applies as a fallback -- the two compose rather than conflict, since
accepting a Tab-completion replaces the `...` in the buffer before the
line is ever submitted, leaving nothing for the AST transform to find.
