Pull in and customise the libedit tab handler from degesch, however useless it is. It might make sense to always show all continuations on the first failure to progress in a straight way. It would be good to reprint the prompt, though the cursor may be almost anywhere and the command line several lines long, so some libedit co-ordination seems necessary.

Document the -O switch in the manual page. I don't feel comfortable making it the default as the OpenRPC standard is immature. Mention the feature in README.adoc as well.

It would be good to reprint the prompt, though the cursor may be almost anywhere and the command line several lines long, so some libedit co-ordination seems necessary. Document the `-O` switch in the manual page. I don't feel comfortable making it the default as the OpenRPC standard is immature. Mention the feature in README.adoc as well.

Implement tab completion under libedit I haven't tested it with real wide characters but it will have to do. I wasn't even sure if this piece of crap could be coerced into doing this at first, so it's a win for me. It uses a variation of the code in degesch where we /don't/ want to print the list of candidates on partial failure. Updates #1

Document OpenRPC tab completion support Now that it's functional in both frontends, we can flaunt it. I still don't want to make it the default. Closes #1
