I don't want to be a GSoC mentor, and Jesse is not very active in
GtkSourceView these days.

Nothing prevents you from implementing a new GtkSourceCompletionProvider
in gnome-builder, in a way that it can simply be copied to Gtef or
GtkSourceView later without too much changes required. So, do not depend
on other gnome-builder code, write a self-contained class. And
GtkSourceView and Gtef don't use g_autoptr variables, so please avoid
those as well.

Hapy hacking,
