Feature request: Show prompt suggestions while typing (not only when input is empty)

Feature Request

Currently, prompt suggestions only appear when the input box is empty. Once the user starts typing, suggestions disappear immediately.

Desired behavior: Allow an option to show contextual suggestions/autocomplete even when the user has already typed some text in the input box — similar to how IDE autocomplete works.

Use case: When typing a partial command or description, it would be helpful to see relevant suggestions based on the current input, project context, and conversation history, rather than only seeing them on an empty prompt.

Suggested implementation: A configuration option like CLAUDE_CODE_SUGGEST_WHILE_TYPING=true or a setting in /config to enable this behavior.
