Description

In #5, @chubin mentioned a new interface for live suggestions in cheat.sh:

$ curl cheat.sh/python/create+empty?query=complete
create empty list
create empty array
create empty file
create empty dict
create empty set

(See here: https://github.com/mre/vscode-snippet/issues/5#issuecomment-430407443)

This is a tracking ticket for this feature. As soon as it becomes available, we should add it to vscode-snippet, as it provides a lot of value in my opinion.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the cheat.sh live suggestion API endpoint and implement a new command or handler that fetches suggestions using the `?query=complete` parameter, then display them in a VS Code quick pick or completion item.
