Re #4311. Return the methods of the proxied object.
This helps tab-completion in IPython return the methods that we want to see.

Re #4311. Return the docstring of the proxied object.
This helps the correct documentation string show up in the IPython console. I've also turned on automatic docstring generation in our sip call.

I rebased this onto master, just to check that things are looking good after the IPython merge (they are). That's the reason for the 'extra' commits above.

Now we can see the auto-completion by using the tab key. It works fine.

The short answer is yes - IPython should have stupendous auto-completion capabilities!
However, full IPython integration into MantidPlot is likely to be some way away. In the meantime it's going to be all-change with the python exposure of MantidPlot features so I'll try to address this as part of that.
It looks like we're missing a trick by not using the '-a' command-line option when running sip (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/sip4/command_line.html).
