custom comp: do not complete flags after args when interspersed is false (#1308)

If the interspersed option is set false and one arg is already set all following arguments are counted as arg and not parsed as flags. Because of that we should not offer flag completion. The same applies to arguments followed after `--`. Signed-off-by: Paul Holzinger <paul.holzinger@web.de>
