completion: add hack to enable file mode in bash < 4

This way we don't need all the compat stuff, different filters, and so
on. Also, now we complete exactly the same in bash 3 and bash 4.

This is the way bash-completion did it for quite some time, when bash 3
was supported. For more information about the hack:
