Summary

Completion object used and returned by IPython completers.

Extended Summary

This act as a middle ground Completion object between the jedi.api.classes.Completion object and the Prompt Toolkit completion object. While Jedi need a lot of information about evaluator and how the code should be ran/inspected, PromptToolkit (and other frontend) mostly need user facing information.

Which range should be replaced replaced by what.
Some metadata (like completion type), or meta information to displayed to the use user.

For debugging purpose we can also store the origin of the completion (jedi, IPython.python_matches, IPython.magics_matches...).
