[PATCH 11/14] test: completion: tests for __gitcomp regression

From

There's a regression in the completion since the introduction of __gitcomp.

Go to any directory that doesn't contain a git repository, like /tmp. Then type the following:

  git checkout --<tab>

You will see nothing. That's because `git checkout --git-completion-helper` fails when you run it outside a git repository.

You might change to a directory that has a git repository, but it's too late, because the empty options have been cached.

It's unclear how many commands are affected, but this patch attempts to at least detect some already in the testing framework.
