Description
Python script nodes can select which function to execute within the script environment's script, however this is done via a rather opaque regex operation. We should find a library provider or just investigate support for function signature selection from react-codemirror.

Research direction
Start at the Python script node's function-selection logic and review the existing opaque regex behavior. Investigate whether react-codemirror or another library supports function signature selection, then define completion as a proper library- or editor-supported approach replacing the current search behavior.
