bash_completion: match more narrowly
This greatly helps completion performance for most commands that deal
with files.
In a working dir with 150,000 files, where we want to complete the name
of a modified file under a path beginning with "a", from the root of
the working dir:
(old) hg status -nm . 1.7 sec
(new) hg status -nm "glob:a**" 0.3
Even "hg add" becomes a little faster, in spite of being the worst
case (matching untracked files).
