Move shell completion to the mvt command and generate one script for every MVT command

Setting up shell completion had nothing to do with the acquisition of one
platform, yet it was a command of mvt-ios and mvt-android, each
generating the script of the program it ran under only. Completion now
leaves the platform CLIs for mvt, which emits one script covering mvt,
mvt-ios and mvt-android, installed as a single file loaded when the shell
starts. Click names the completion function of each program after the
program, so the three scripts concatenate without colliding, and fish
takes the file in conf.d rather than one named after a single command.

With one script there is nothing left for the platform commands to
generate, so their completion command goes, and with it the banner
suppression which was keyed on the command name: mvt-ios and mvt-android
now print the banner for every command they have.

The long help line says which commands the completion covers, so a
short_help keeps "mvt --help" from truncating it.

To enable it, you need to register a completion script with your shell, which varies depending on the shell you are using.
The following describes how to generate the command completion scripts and add them to your shell configuration.
`mvt completion` generates one script which covers `mvt`, `mvt-ios` and `mvt-android`. The following describes how to generate that script and add it to your shell configuration.
> **Note: You will need to start a new shell for the changes to take effect.**
### For Bash
```bash
# Generate bash completion scripts
mvt-ios completion bash > ~/.mvt-ios-complete.bash
mvt-android completion bash > ~/.mvt-android-complete.bash
# Generate the bash completion script
mvt completion bash > ~/.mvt-complete.bash
```
Add the following to `~/.bashrc`:
```bash
# source mvt completion scripts
[ -f ~/.mvt-ios-complete.bash ] && . ~/.mvt-ios-complete.bash
[ -f ~/.mvt-android-complete.bash ] && . ~/.mvt-android-complete.bash
# source the mvt completion script
[ -f ~/.mvt-complete.bash ] && . ~/.mvt-complete.bash
```
### For Zsh
```bash
# Generate zsh completion scripts
mvt-ios completion zsh > ~/.mvt-ios-complete.zsh
mvt-android completion zsh > ~/.mvt-android-complete.zsh
# Generate the zsh completion script
mvt completion zsh > ~/.mvt-complete.zsh
```
Add the following to `~/.zshrc`:
```bash
# source mvt completion scripts
[ -f ~/.mvt-ios-complete.zsh ] && . ~/.mvt-ios-complete.zsh
[ -f ~/.mvt-android-complete.zsh ] && . ~/.mvt-android-complete.zsh
# source the mvt completion script
[ -f ~/.mvt-complete.zsh ] && . ~/.mvt-complete.zsh
```
### For Fish
```bash
# Generate fish completion scripts
mkdir -p ~/.config/fish/completions
mvt-ios completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/mvt-ios.fish
mvt-android completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/mvt-android.fish
# Generate the fish completion script
mkdir -p ~/.config/fish/conf.d
mvt completion fish > ~/.config/fish/conf.d/mvt-completion.fish
```
Fish loads completion files from `~/.config/fish/completions` automatically.
Fish loads the files in `~/.config/fish/conf.d` automatically.
### Automatic Installation
MVT can write the completion file and update the relevant shell configuration for Bash and Zsh when you pass `--install`:
```bash
mvt-ios completion bash --install
mvt-android completion bash --install
mvt completion bash --install
```
Replace `bash` with `zsh` or `fish` as needed. For Fish, `--install` writes the completion file into `~/.config/fish/completions`.
Replace `bash` with `zsh` or `fish` as needed. For Fish, `--install` writes the completion file into `~/.config/fish/conf.d` and changes no shell configuration.
!!! note
Earlier versions generated one script per command, with `mvt-ios completion`
and `mvt-android completion`. Files written by them keep working. When you
switch to the single script, remove the old files and the lines which load
them from your shell configuration.
