This series introduces option completers and adds some minor

and fixes(not bugs per se, just better/sane behavior) in vshReadlineParse.
The first patch introduces the usage of option completers to auto-complete
arguments for a particular option.
The second and third patches provide small improvements like completing
the options of type VSH_OT_ARGV or VSH_OT_DATA, and to complete multiple
options as well, if a previous option requires an argument, and that
argument has been provided.

Okay, the patches look good to me. And I would merge them right away,
but there is a slight change in behaviour in virsh after your patch 2/3.
And you even describe it in the commit message:
Previously we had:
virsh # domstate<TAB><TAB>
just "--reason" was offered. Now, after the change "--domain" is
offered
for completion too. This is important so that we know which completer
should we call for the following input for instance:
virsh # domstate --domain<TAB><TAB>
In this case we want to offer list of domains.
I'd really value output from others whether this might work or is this
change something we don't wanna do?
