repl: improve REPL disabling completion on proxies and getters

dario-piotrowicz · targos · commit 3a3eb6852d22 · 2025-07-17T16:57:11.000+02:00
#57909 introduced the disabling of REPL tab completion on object containing proxies and getters (since such completion triggers code evaluation which can be unexpected/disruptive for the user) the solution in 57909 did not address all possible such cases, the changes here improve on such solution by using acorn and AST analysis to cover most if not all possible cases PR-URL: #58891 Reviewed-By: James M Snell <jasnell@gmail.com>
