Description

Would be great if there was a function hooking into the jupyter-inspect machinery that would prompt for a symbol and display the results for that symbol.

My vision for this is that you could also hook into the completion machinery and have an interface similar to describe-function/describe-variable but for Julia symbols.

I'll submit a PR if interest.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the existing `jupyter inspect` implementation to understand how inspection requests are sent and results displayed. Then design an interactive prompt that uses the same machinery to ask the user for a symbol and show its documentation.
