As discussed in the mailing list, unfortunately this might break APIs
due to the subtle differences between new and old-style classes (see #2398).
This reverts commit d4afa1554b from PR #2179.
```
timeit result for 10000 iterations of expanding '/d' (lowered the count in the code afterwards)
# 2.7.5 3.3.2
# FilesCompleter 75.1109 69.2116
# FastFilesCompleter 0.7383 1.0760
```
- does not display prefix dir (like bash, not like compgen), py.test /usr/<TAB> does not show /usr/bin/ but bin/
- separate out most argcomplete related stuff in new file _argcomplete.py
(could probably be in the py library)
- allow positional arguments to be interspaced with optional arguments
( + test in test_parseopt.py )
- removed double argument in tox.ini
- add documentation on installing argcomplete (>=0.5.7 as needed for
Python 3), might need improving/incorporation in index.
This does not work on 2.5 yet. I have patches for argcomplete
(with/print()/"".format) but I am not sure they will be accepted.
Agreed with hpk not to push for that.
Removing argcomplete and leaving completion code active now works by early
exit, so <TAB> no longer re-runs the programs without parameters
(which took long for py.test)
test calls bash with a script that redirects filedescriptor 8 (as used by
argcomplete), so the result can be tested.
