[chrony-dev] [PATCH 1/1] client: re-work tab-completion to work with libedit 20180525-3.1

[Lonnie Abelbeck <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

client: re-work tab-completion to work with libedit 20180525-3.1
Remove spaces from tab-completion results and now break on a space
Tested with both readline and editline (libedit)

Ref: libedit 20180525-3.1 escapes spaces in tab-completion

The key was to use the readline/libedit global "rl_line_buffer" to look-back from "start" to determine which command options should be matched, if any.

Patch attached.
