We already had some tab completion of commands and aliases, this improves the situation with:

Parses the string from the command line to correctly identify if we are trying to complete a command or not, such as when following a pipe, etc.
Prints the possible matches in columns.
Prints all of the commands and aliases if you tab complete an empty string.
If all of the possible matches start with the same text that is longer than the entered command, updates the entered command to this start text.

Still need to add tab completion of filenames.
