Basic implementation for #3159
After seeing that Clink wasn't included among the other Shells, I figured it wouldn't be too much trouble to add the basics of autocomplete. I'm privy to the complications brought up in #3166. Any semblance of safety seems to fly out of the window for this kind of cross language metaprogramming
Anyways I very nearly mirrored the implementation that the elvish generator uses, targeting the Lua script requirements for Clink to autocomplete.
I'll say I'm relatively new to open source contributions, so let me know if you have any feedback, or if I should dig a little deeper into this issue!
