[PATCH 07/24] Remove "show" command completers

The default command completer is symbol_completer, but it makes no
sense for a "show" command to complete on symbols, or anything else,
really.

I wonder whether we should instead make the default be no completer.
That seems like a much larger/complicated audit/change, so I'd like to
move forward with this version, as it'll be covered by tests.  I
noticed this because a following patch will add a new
gdb.base/settings.exp testcase that exercises all sorts of details of
settings commands, including completing the show commands, using new
representative "maint test-settings <type or settings command>"
commands.

gdb/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* cli/cli-decode.c (add_setshow_enum_cmd)
	(add_setshow_auto_boolean_cmd, add_setshow_boolean_cmd)
	(add_setshow_filename_cmd, add_setshow_string_cmd)
	(add_setshow_string_noescape_cmd)
	(add_setshow_optional_filename_cmd, add_setshow_integer_cmd)
	(add_setshow_uinteger_cmd, add_setshow_zinteger_cmd)
	(add_setshow_zuinteger_unlimited_cmd, add_setshow_zuinteger_cmd):
	Remove "show" completer.
