Bug Description

Importing Traits can be expensive. Enabling the ipy_traits_completer at startup can be undesirable because of this. The attached patch delays the import of Traits until it encounters an object that looks like it subclasses from HasTraits. It then imports Traits and does the actual isinstance() check.

Pushed:

- trunk, r1245.
- 0.10.1, r1227. (oops, forgot the --author flag here, sorry, I put it right in the trunk commit).

Note, this completer got moved by Brian into 'deathrow' after the refactoring. We need to check it and update it if necessary to move it back into the mainline.
