Specify replacement regions to allow fuzzy completion suggestions

Specify replacement regions for completion suggestions so fuzzy matching autocompletion engines can offer more flexible completion suggestions.

User can type data. and get the suggestion anyNA.data.frame then hit <CR> and the inserted result would be anyNA.data.frame. When the user tries to do this as of now the inserted result is data.anyNA.data.frame.

not sure how vscode handles this, but I feel like unless user has already typed in aggregate.data., this one shouldn't be there?
