Description
Describe the solution you'd like
In Golang, when you usually need to reference a exported function or a nested structure. You have to complete a part first, then type ".", repeat again. e.g.
sli // complete
slices // input .
slices. // complete
slices.Clone()
If it is a multi nested structure, it will be more painful, e.g. A.B.C.D
In Vim, I will map <C-.> to these two steps. When I want to do the same in vscodevim, I found that vscodevim. It does not seem to support <c-.>.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Begin by locating VSCodeVim's keymap handling and the implementation of multi-step completion, then compare it with the existing handling for Ctrl-. in Vim. Done means Ctrl-. performs the described repeated completion behavior, including for nested expressions.
