[git] git add to offer a wildcard extension about autocomplete HOT 6 CLOSED

Merged again in #358, using one generator (which is now really faster!)

I like this idea a lot! To summarize: we should check to see if any of the staged files share a common prefix and then add the corresponding wildcard pattern as a suggestion?

Another user comment

I was trying to git add a folder of changes eg:

• app/web/files/change.js
• app/web/files/otherthing.js

I wanted the autocomplete to stop at git add app/web/files, but there's no way to do this outside of breaking the autocomplete interface by typing a nonsensical character, or escaping the interface.

Merged in #349, thanks to everyone!

Going to reopen this. This PR uses two generators which is going to be really slow. We should do this with 1 generator.

There are many other specs that use 2 generators, I don't think that really slow. We should benchmark this to see if it's really slow or not.
