Jan Tojnar bee71e1bb1 Add a fish completion script
This is only rudimentary support as allowed by `NIX_GET_COMPLETIONS`.

In the future, we could use complete’s `--wraps` argument to autocomplete arguments for programs after `nix shell -c`.

function _nix_complete
# Get the current command up to a cursor.
# - Behaves correctly even with pipes and nested in commands like env.
# - TODO: Returns the command verbatim (does not interpolate variables).
# That might not be optimal for arguments like -f.
set -l nix_args (commandline --current-process --tokenize --cut-at-cursor)
# --cut-at-cursor with --tokenize removes the current token so we need to add it separately.

# Can be an empty string.

# also contains the program name (argv[0]) so we would need to subtract 1.
# But the variable also misses the current token so it cancels out.
