1. Register completion for multiple commands …

   Shell startup files may contain lots of 'register-python-argcomplete'
   calls, for as many scripts as require it.
   
   However, this can have a significant impact on shell startup time,
   because each one requires starting a Python interpreter and invoking
   'complete'.
   
   Optimise this by allowing 'register-python-argcomplete' to accept
   multiple commands. In Bash, the whole list of completable commands
   can be passed to a single 'complete' call. Tcsh requires a separate
   'complete' call for each command, but we can at least avoid the
   overhead of starting Python each time.
   
   On my machine, the time to register ~10 completed scripts decreases
   from about 0.4s to 0.05s with this change.
