/* Helper function for the Python command completers (both "pure"
   completer and brkchar handler).  This function takes COMMAND, TEXT
   and WORD and tries to call the Python method for completion with
   these arguments.

   This function is usually called twice: once when we are figuring out
   the break characters to be used, and another to perform the real
   completion itself.  The reason for this two step dance is that we
   need to know the set of "brkchars" to use early on, before we
   actually try to perform the completion.  But if a Python command
   supplies a "complete" method then we have to call that method
   first: it may return as its result the kind of completion to
   perform and that will in turn specify which brkchars to use.  IOW,
   we need the result of the "complete" method before we actually
   perform the completion.  The only situation when this function is
   not called twice is when the user uses the "complete" command: in
   this scenario, there is no call to determine the "brkchars".

   Ideally, it would be nice to cache the result of the first call (to
   determine the "brkchars") and return this value directly in the
   second call (to perform the actual completion).  However, due to
   the peculiarity of the "complete" command mentioned above, it is
   possible to put GDB in a bad state if you perform a TAB-completion
   and then a "complete"-completion sequentially.  Therefore, we just
   recalculate everything twice for TAB-completions.

   This function returns the PyObject representing the Python method
   call.  */
