This command is going to be called from bash completion script in
the following form:
virsh complete "start --domain"
Its only purpose is to return list of possible strings for
completion. Note that this is a 'hidden', unlisted command and
therefore there's no documentation to it.

One more thing here, you're skipping to the last arg here, I guess this is the
reason why <TAB><TAB> doesn't work in the middle of the input, only at the
end.
Maybe there should be another optional parameter that would tell you where the
completion was requested.
