Description:
When a variable is redefined in the same cell, tab-completions still show attributes of the previous type instead of the new one.
Reproduce
In [1]: a = 1
In [2]: a = []
a.<TAB> # shows completions like as_integer_ratio, real, etc.Expected behavior:
Completions should reflect the current type of the variable — in this case, list attributes such as append, extend, etc.
Cause:
In the _attr_matches function, if the object is already defined, we do not consider the lines above in the current cell.
