Subject: [PATCH] bash completion: Improve responsiveness of git-log completion

Junio noticed the bash completion has been taking a long time lately.
Petr Baudis tracked it down to 72e5e989b ("bash: Add space after
unique command name is completed.").  Tracing the code showed
we spent significant time inside of this loop within __gitcomp,
due to the string copying overhead.

  [28.146109654] _git common over
  [28.164791148] gitrefs in
  [28.280302268] gitrefs dir out
  [28.300939737] gitcomp in
  [28.308378112] gitcomp pre-case
* [28.313407453] gitcomp iter in
* [28.701270296] gitcomp iter out
  [28.713370786] out normal

Since __git_refs avoids this string copying by forking and using
echo we use the same trick here when we need to finish generating
the names for the caller.
