Make pdb completion work with alias, convenience variables etc. #110944
Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
The current pdb completion could be improved for the following scenarios:
- It should support alias if there is any
- Convenience variables (starting with the
$) should be supported as an expression - For the "command" completion, if there's no command matches, then the user is probably typing an expression to display and we should just complete as expression.
# The user probably wants $_frame
(pdb) $<tab>
