feat(completion): smart parenthesis detection to avoid duplicate parens

When the next non-whitespace character after the cursor is already '(',
skip inserting parentheses and parameter placeholders in the snippet.
This prevents duplicate parens when completing a function name that
already has arguments written after it.

Uses the original file content (not Clang's internal buffer) for
lookahead to correctly detect the next token.
