…ssions we don't have in Docker Compose environment.
Since PHP 5.4 the short array syntax `[]` may be used instead of `array()`.

The autocomplete test was too fragile and difficult to debug. It was
causing frequent failures in CI and was testing functionality that
could be better tested through other means.

Removed:
- playwright.autocomplete.config.js
- ensure-categories-seeded.php
- setup-autocomplete-test-data.php
- docker:test:playwright-autocomplete task from Taskfile.yml
- Autocomplete test step from CircleCI config
