Description
We may provide completion for list-like objects in package such as .Machine, .Platform, and objects defined in packages such as R6 classes since their elements are known.
In contrast with https://github.com/Ikuyadeu/vscode-R/pull/165 which provides completion for elements in list-like objects in a live R session, languageserver may do similar for list-like objects in packages.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the completion implementation and the behavior described in the referenced vscode-R pull request. Identify how package-defined list-like objects, including .Machine, .Platform, and R6 classes, expose known elements, then verify completion behavior for those objects in packages rather than a live R session. No specific file or test is named, so the appropriate test location and exact completion scope still need investigation.
