AFAICT, the above description of the problem is inaccurate.  The
*Completions* buffer would pop up in previous versions as well, but
only after a second TAB.  Whereas the in-buffer completion would show
after the first TAB.  Now in Emacs 30 after the first TAB nothing
happens, and after the second TAB you see the same display as
previously after the second TAB: both in-buffer completion and the
*Completions* buffer popped up.

So I think the problem is that the first TAB does NOT show in-buffer
completion anymore in the above scenario.
