Subject: [PATCH] Hack snippets chooser to use autocomplete

Users wanted to have partial search when Contacts are selected by the
Chooser. The Chooser doesn't have the feature to use partial matches and
our postgres_search doesn't support it in its search() method anyway.
Try to get away with changing the Chooserd to use autocomplete().
