Add zsh completion #518

Closed gperciva closed 2 years ago

gperciva commented 2 years ago

This builds on #517 to serve as step 2/2 to replace #226.

I expect to make a few more nitpick fixes tomorrow, but I thought it was worth putting it up here so that you could see where #517 was moving towards; in particular, how the misc/describe-options.txt were going to be used.

You might be wondering about the new arguments --write-argparse and --write-zsh in contrast to --update-bash.

--update-bash modifies an existing bash completion file, whereas the --write-* options creates a new one from scratch.

If I was writing the bash stuff from scratch, I'd use shtab to generate a bash completion file from scratch. (And I'm not ruling that out in the future.) But for now, I figured that it wasn't worth touching the bash stuff.

Ready for review.
