Global Recipe Completion

[jtmonroe]

When completions happen with a local justfile present, global recipes are ignored. All this does is allow for them to appear. A better strategy may be to consume the -g|--global-justfile argument and use that to inspire the autocomplete. However, since running just <GLOBAL_RECIPE> without the -g flag works, I think this may violate the best approach.

That does not work for me

You are right, I forgot I had fallback on the justfile! It may be better to consume the -g argument then. Thoughts?

This should work better now. It aligns better with existing behaviours and the presence of the --global-justfile | -g flag.

I switched to using Clap's dynamic completion engine in #3167. The new completion engine calls into the just binary to get completions. This allows us to implement custom completion logic in Rust for all supported shells, instead of having to patch in support for each individual shell.

I created #2406 to track improvements to the new completion engine in one place.

The new completion engine attempts to respect command line flags like --global-justfile as much as possible, so this should work.
