webkit-patch should use optcomplete to provide bash/zsh autocompletion

Would be easy to use thirdparty.autoinstalled to install:

I'm not sure how nice it will play with our multi-level command stuff.  But it would be an awesome feature to have.

There may also be more modern python libraries for this stuff.

Nevermind, it was clearly designed with our use in mind!

Turns out someone already made a manual attempt:

It was me. Over the last few days, I was just thinking that this should be internal to webkit-patch (but haven't made fwd progress on that at all).

I've been using webkit-tools-completion.sh. It's awesome. +1 to building it in.
