[PATCH v3 07/29] completion: prompt: fix color for Zsh

From
Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>

We don't need PROMPT_COMMAND in Zsh; we are already using %F{color} %f, which in turn use %{ and %}, which are the equivalent of Bash's \[ and \].

We can use as many colors as we want and output directly into PS1 (or RPS1) without the risk of buffer wrapping issues.
