bug#70707: 30.0.50; [PATCH] ; Check the process param in function (python-shell-completion-at-point)

[Lin Sun]

> Hi,
>
> There is an unexpected error message happening with function
> `python-shell-completion-at-point`.
> > Wrong type argument: processp, nil
> It happened because the function does NOT check the process param.
> The patch will check the param and display a user error message gracefully.
>
> Steps to reproduce the issue.
> 1. $ emacs -q /tmp/a.py # start emacs and open a python source file
> 2. type "C-c C-p" (or M-x run-python) to start a python shell
> 3. type exit() to stop the python process but the buffer still exists
> 4. Switch to *python* buffer, then M-x
> python-shell-completion-at-point  will get the error message
>
> Please help review the patch. Thanks. Regards
>

Hi Kobarity, Please help review the patch for checking process and
emitting user-error when it's not available. Thanks.
