I've found a work around for the behavioural change:

    (setopt completion-auto-help t)
    (advice-add 'completion-at-point :after #'minibuffer-hide-completions)

So maybe we should just add something explaining this to NEWS?

The default value of completion-auto-help is t, but I had it set to
`lazy'.
If someone wants the Emacs 29 behaviour back, they'll need to ensure
completion-auto-help is t, so I think we should mention it somewhere.
Essentially, completion-auto-help now affects both the *Completions*
buffer and icomplete-in-buffer's display.
