Tab completion failing on session.view

[Tristan Croll]

Not sure if it's related to #1802 or not, but there's some weirdness popping up in tab-completion in the shell. In a freshly-opened ChimeraX session, attempting to tab-complete on session.view. does nothing. Neither pressing tab twice on the bare . to bring up a list of options, nor once on session.view.center_of to autocomplete. dir session.view lists all members correctly, and session.view.center_of_rotation returns a sensible value. Tab completion still works fine on other entities (e.g. all three levels of session.models.list).

Apparently tab completion doesn't work on properties. 'view' is a property of session. session.main_view is the actual attribute/object.

Strange - that *was* working previously. Probably another "feature" of 
the new iPython version?
