Description
#### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm opening this issue/future request as suggested [in this post](https://discourse.holoviz.org/t/code-completion-with-param-when-a-class-implements-the-init-method/8877/2).
I am implementing a class which requires the `__init__` method to accept some arguments. The only issue is that by implementing it, I lose the code completion capability (at least in Jupyter Notebook, where I do have code completion turned on). Here is an example:
```py
import param
class Test(param.Parameterized):
first_param = param.Integer(default=2, doc="first")
second_param = param.Dict(default={}, doc="second")
third_param = param.Selector(default="a", objects=["a", "b", "c"], doc="third")
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
```
If you type `Test(first_` in a new cell, no completion is shown. If you comment out the `__init__` method, code completion works fine.
#### Describe the solution you'd like
Regardless of the arguments written in the `__init__` method, I would like to be able to use code completion on parameters that are created with `param`.
#### Describe alternatives you've considered
None, because I am attempting to refactor an existing module and I would like to maintain back-compatibility for as much as possible.
