Suggest calling method when first argument is `self`

Closes: #66782

I've explored different approaches for this MR but I think the most straightforward is the best one.

I've tried to find out if the methods for given type exist (to maybe have a better suggestion), but we don't collect them anywhere and collecting them is quite problematic. Moreover, collecting all the methods would require rewriting big part of the code and also could potentially include performance degradation, which I don't think is necessary for this simple case.
