I agree that `vlog` is probably a better fit here, but still think we should 
change it across `CodeComplete.cpp` in a single commit, rather than partially 
apply the guidelines to different parts of the file.

However, if everyone agrees we should use `vlog` here, happy to use `vlog` too 
and also send a patch to update all the rest of the usages.
The situation I'm trying to avoid is:
1. We commit `vlog` here.
2. Someone argues that using `log` is actually better and we decide to not 
change other usages to `log`.
3. We end up with inconsistent choices across this file: `vlog` for signature 
help and `log` for code completion.

But if there's an agreement that we should use `vlog` everywhere, more than 
happy to change it :-)
