[repl] Actions tab completion should work

[hunner]

What happens:
Opening the repl and typing talon.actions.<tab> only tab-completes talon.actions.registry.

What should happen:
All of the actions should be listed, such as talon.actions.key and talon.actions.insert

Motivation:
Actions are the building-blocks of talon files, and discovery is important to adoption.

What if for now I just make actions.registry not tab-completable, and make actions. give you something like actions.list(), that pretty prints them all

[hunner]

It seems like anything that is in the python public-api should be tab completable if possible, whether they are methods or classes. Talon actions appear to be dynamically-registered function namespaces that are constructed separately from the python class structure and are meant to be called as talon commands, not via python scripts directly.

Maybe the intended interaction from the repl is not self-evident. Under talon.actions.registry.actions all the actions are visible, but talon.actions.registry overlaps with the talon.actions.* namespace that actions are "registered" into.

What if the registry was moved to talon.actions_registry and talon.actions.* was purely just for registered actions? That would make the python -> action interface fairly uniform, and nothing would overlap (say if I registered an action called registry.actions).

I did my list() solution in the latest release.

The repl is for experimentation, not really for documentation. In the future there will be a significantly better form of auto-documentation for stuff like actions that will also be easily accessible to people who aren't comfortable with Python.

actions.X does not work like you think it does at all, which makes it difficult to tab complete at the moment, sorry. It's not a static interface, the actual actions aren't and cannot be real properties on it, and the repl's autocompletion is a black box handled by python's rlcompleter.

The actions.registry property wasn't intended to be a public property people would actually use, it's just an implementation detail and is hidden now.

Small note, you can access e.g. actions directly in the repl with no import. No need to do talon.actions
