WIP -- add simple bash completion support (#3131)
* add simple bash completion support

* add "completions" subdir to meson

* start extending completion to extra args

* file complete for every arg after 1

* add completion for enums, file, ints, doubles

* docs, try to improve directory completion

though dir completion is not working correctly, I'm not sure why

Shell completions for vips

Basic shell completions for the vips program. Internally, these use the -c argument to vips to list argument options.

Example

$ vips relational<TAB>
relational        relational_const  
$ vips relational_const ~/pics/k2.<TAB>
~/pics/k2.avif  ~/pics/k2.hdr   ~/pics/k2.pdf   ~/pics/k2.tif
~/pics/k2.bmp   ~/pics/k2.heic  ~/pics/k2.pfm   ~/pics/k2.v
~/pics/k2.csv   ~/pics/k2.jp2   ~/pics/k2.pgm   ~/pics/k2.vips
~/pics/k2.fits  ~/pics/k2.jpg   ~/pics/k2.png   ~/pics/k2.webp
~/pics/k2.flif  ~/pics/k2.jxl   ~/pics/k2.ppm   
~/pics/k2.gif   ~/pics/k2.pbm   ~/pics/k2.ppt   
$ vips relational_const ~/pics/k2.jpg x.v less<TAB>
less    lesseq  
$ vips relational_const ~/pics/k2.jpg x.v lesseq 12

Install

vips-completion.bash

Usually copy to /etc/bash_completion.d to install, but it depends on your system.
