Merge lp:~ben-hutchings/ensoft-sextant/autocomplete-fix into lp:ensoft-sextant

[Ben Hutchings]

Web gui now has a hard limit on how many functions it is willing to get for the autocomplete menu. If there are more than this number of functions in the program, the empty list will be returned. Maximum number of functions is set to 75 at present - more than this leads to drop down lists not displaying properly sometimes.

Substring search in function names. Debouncing (one second timer at present).

[Ben Hutchings (ben-hutchings)]

Also the limit is hardcoded in web/server.py, not db_api.py.
