Description

**Describe the bug**
When requesting completions for the word pri, the builtin print is missing from the returned items. Reproduces inside a function body, and also at module level once any import exists in the file. At module level in a completely empty file, print is returned. Responses always carry isIncomplete: true.

Research direction

Start by reproducing completion requests for `pri` inside a function and at module level after adding an import, then compare them with an empty module where `print` is returned. Trace the completion handling for responses with `isIncomplete: true`; done when the builtin `print` appears in all described scopes.
