[PATCH v5 1/3] completion: add new __gitcompadd helper

From

<1350229971-9343-1-git-send-email-felipe.contreras@gmail.com>
The idea is to never touch the COMPREPLY variable directly.

This allows other completion systems override __gitcompadd, and do something different instead.

Also, this allows the simplifcation of the completino tests (separate patch).

There should be no functional changes.
