MI: Add new command -complete
There is a CLI command 'complete' intended to use with emacs. Such a command
would also be useful for MI frontends, when separate CLI and MI channels cannot
be used. For example, on Windows (because of lack of PTYs) or when GDB is used
through SSH session.
This commit adds a new '-complete' MI command.
