AutoComplete menu can appear off screen

Tim M
This is a small one, but if you are typing text on a long line that is near
the right margin (of a maximised window) the auto complete menu doesn't adjust
itself so it doesn't appear off the end of the screen.

e.g.

        self should: [ result apply: mockContext on: aWriteStream] raise: NotFoundError
matching: [:ex | ex messageText shouldMatch: 'Not found:*Some Pre Text'.
ex mess<<<  

Where there is <<< I got a clipped menu, when it tried to complete on messageText

This is an issue with Scintilla. Occassionally I do some work on it and
submit changes (actually I did a lot of work on the autocompletion to speed
it up for large lists and sort out other issues), but apart from that it is
not something over which we have direct control.
