When/Why was it forgotten? git-blame thinks it was me in b0176ce6b5
(builtin/describe: introduce --broken flag, 2017-03-21)
Which do you add? (dirty and broken)

I had these questions when reading the subject (which is the
equivalent of reading the output of `git log --oneline` in the future)
I think a better wording might be

    completion: add --broken and --dirty to describe

    When the flags for broken and dirty were implemented in
    b0176ce6b5 (builtin/describe: introduce --broken flag, 2017-03-21)
    and 9f67d2e827 (Teach "git describe" --dirty option, 2009-10-21)
    the completion was not updated, although these flags are useful
    completions. Add them.

Thanks for the review. Your commit message is (obviously) much better than mine. Reroll follows.
