Custom completion for aliases

It is now possible to have custom completion for aliases, for example to complete with another command completion, or with your own completion.
Examples:
- create alias /forcejoin with completion of /sajoin:
/alias -completion %%sajoin forcejoin /quote forcejoin
- create alias /mybuf with custom completion:
/alias -completion #weechat|#weechat-fr mybuf /buffer
You can change completion if alias is already created:
/set alias.completion.forcejoin "%%sajoin"
You can use empty string to prevent any completion for command (default is to complete using target command):
/set alias.completion.forcejoin ""
And you can remove a completion:
/unset alias.completion.forcejoin
Completion is automatically removed when you remove an alias with /unalias
