Bash completion V2 with completion descriptions (#1146)

Browse source 
* Bash completion v2

This v2 version of bash completion is based on Go completions.
It also supports descriptions like the other shells.

Signed-off-by: Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@montreal.ca>

* Only consider matching completions for formatting

Signed-off-by: Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@montreal.ca>

* Use bash compV2 for the default completion command

Signed-off-by: Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@montreal.ca>

* Update comments that still referred to bash completion

For backward compatibility, Cobra still supports its legacy dynamic completion solution (described below). Unlike the `ValidArgsFunction` solution, the legacy solution will only work for Bash shell-completion and not for other shells. This legacy solution can be used along-side `ValidArgsFunction` and `RegisterFlagCompletionFunc()`, as long as both solutions are not used for the same command. This provides a path to gradually migrate from the legacy solution to the new solution.
**Note**: Cobra's default `completion` command uses bash completion V2. If you are currently using Cobra's legacy dynamic completion solution, you should not use the default `completion` command but continue using your own.
The legacy solution allows you to inject bash functions into the bash completion script. Those bash functions are responsible for providing the completion choices for your own completions.

For backward compatibility, Cobra still supports its bash legacy dynamic completion solution.
Please refer to [Bash Completions](bash_completions.md) for details.
### Bash completion V2
Cobra provides two versions for bash completion. The original bash completion (which started it all!) can be used by calling
`GenBashCompletion()` or `GenBashCompletionFile()`.
A new V2 bash completion version is also available. This version can be used by calling `GenBashCompletionV2()` or
`GenBashCompletionFileV2()`. The V2 version does **not** support the legacy dynamic completion (see [Bash Completions]
(bash_completions.md)) but instead works only with the Go dynamic completion solution described in this Readme.
Unless your program already uses the legacy dynamic completion solution, it is recommended that you use the bash
completion V2 solution which provides the following extra features:
- Supports completion descriptions (like the other shells)
- Small completion script of less than 300 lines (v1 generates scripts of thousands of lines; `kubectl` for example has a bash v1 completion script of over 13K lines)
- Streamlined user experience thanks to a completion behavior aligned with the other shells
`Bash` completion V2 supports descriptions for completions. When calling `GenBashCompletionV2()` or `GenBashCompletionFileV2()`
you must provide these functions with a parameter indicating if the completions should be annotated with a description; Cobra
will provide the description automatically based on usage information. You can choose to make this option configurable by
your users.
```
# With descriptions
$ helm s[tab][tab]
search (search for a keyword in charts) status (display the status of the named release)
show (show information of a chart)
# Without descriptions
$ helm s[tab][tab]
search show status
```
**Note**: Cobra's default `completion` command uses bash completion V2. If for some reason you need to use bash completion V1, you will need to implement your own `completion` command.
## Zsh completions
Cobra supports native zsh completion generated from the root `cobra.Command`.
