Expanding IPython LaTeX (blackslash) completion for all unicode characters #12861

Description

@tomchor

The LaTeX completion feature in IPython is super useful. It would very helpful if it could extend to all unicode characters, as is the case for Julia language.

My motivation for this is that often we want to access/write unicode characters that aren't necessarily Python identifiers. If I want to access a dict that has one of those characters as a key, for example, I have to manually find that character somewhere and copy paste it into the prompt.

The disclaimer here is that I work with Julia a lot so these cases happen really often for me, but also I don't necessarily see a reason why extending the latex-completion feature to all unicode characters would be detrimental. So I say why not? :)

Thanks!
