I see search-completions.el uses C-v and M-v to scroll completions
from the minibuffer.

But then you can't use C-s to search in the minibuffer history.

This is the same problem as in bug#3746 where we need the same key C-s
to search in the comint history and in the comint output buffer.

PS: You can see the implementation of isearch in comint mode
I just sent to bug#3746.
