Tab completion shows all my abbreviations instead of completing a file #12838

Description

Issue body actions

#12764 puts all my abbreviations with --position=anywhere or --command=foo into tab completion. Tab completing file paths is unusable because it is filled up with abbreviations. Also, tab completion with a single file in the directory no longer populates the file name.

In my dotfiles, I have 1 abbreviation using --position=anywhere, and many more using --command=git. Both types are shown by tab completion (regardless of the command).


The use case described in #12764 was:

right now if I don't know the exact abbr in non-command position, I can't use the abbr... but when I am learning abbrs, if I can tab complete to see choices, that helps me learn

The current implementation doesn't seem like a worthwhile change for how breaking it is 😦
