Although it is not the recommended approach, sourcing a completion script is the simplest way to get people to try using shell completion. Not allowing it for zsh has turned out to complicate shell completion adoption.

Also, it has caused multiple issues to be opened on the Cobra project because people could not get zsh completion to work. One can look for the string compdef in: #881 #986 #887 #1264 #1325 #1796

Further, many tools modify the zsh script provided by Cobra to allow sourcing, which kind of makes Cobra's stance, not that useful anyway.

This commit allows sourcing of the zsh completion script.

Note that putting the script on $fpath continues to be recommended approach and continues to function as before.

* ci: deprecate go 1.15 (spf13#1866)

Remove testing for go 1.15 to allow CI to pass, but don't force projects to upgrade.

* fix: conflict import name with variable (spf13#1879)

`template` is an import in `cobra.go` file and also used as a variable
name, which masks the library in the scope of that function.

* Update badge route (spf13#1884)

Based on
badges/shields#8671

* fix: func name in doc strings (spf13#1885)

Corrected the function name at the start of doc strings, as per the convention
outlined in official go documentation: https://go.dev/blog/godoc

* completions: do not detect arguments with dash as 2nd char as flag (spf13#1817)

Fixes spf13#1816

Previously, arguments with a dash as the second character (e.g., 1-ff00:0:1)
were detected as a flag by mistake. This resulted in auto completion misbehaving
if such an argument was last in the argument list during invocation.

* build(deps): bump github.com/inconshreveable/mousetrap (spf13#1872)

* Add documentation about disabling completion descriptions (spf13#1901)

* Add keeporder to shell completion (spf13#1903)

This allows programs to request the shell to maintain the order of completions that was returned by the program

* Add support for PowerShell 7.2+ (spf13#1916)

PowerShell 7.2 has changed the way arguments are passed to executables.
This was originally an experimental feature in 7.2, but as of 7.3 it is
built-in. A simple "" is now sufficient for passing empty arguments, no
back-tick escaping is required.

* test: make fish_completions_test more robust (spf13#1980)

Use temporary files instead of assuming the current directory is
writable. Also, if creating a temporary file still returns an error,
prevent the test from failing silently by replacing `log.Fatal` with
`t.Fatal`.

* powershell: escape variable with curly brackets (spf13#1960)

This fixes an issue with program names that include a dot, in our case
`podman.exe`. This was caused by the change in commit 6ba7ebb.

* Allow running persistent run hooks of all parents (spf13#2044)

Currently, only one of the persistent pre-runs and post-runs is executed.
It is always the first one found in the parents chain, starting at this command.
Expected behavior is to execute all parents' persistent pre-runs and post-runs.

Dependent projects implemented various workarounds for this:
- manually building persistent hook chains (in every hook).
- applying some kind of monkey-patching on top of Cobra.

This change eliminates the necessity for such workarounds
by allowing to set a global variable EnableTraverseRunHooks.

* Don't complete --help flag when flag parsing disabled (spf13#2061)

Fixes spf13#2060

When a command sets `DisableFlagParsing = true` it requests the
responsibility of doing all the flag parsing. Therefore even the
`--help/-f/--version/-v` flags should not be automatically completed
by Cobra in such a case.

Without this change the `--help/-h/--version/-v` flags can end up being
completed twice for plugins: one time from cobra and one time from the
plugin (which has set `DisableFlagParsing = true`).

* Add tests for flag completion registration (spf13#2053)

Different problems have been reported about flag completion registration.

* Replace all non-alphanumerics in active help env var program prefix (spf13#1940)

* Replace all non-alphanumerics in active help env var program prefix

There are other characters besides the dash that are fine in program
names, but are problematic in environment variable names. These include
(but are not limited to) period, space, and non-ASCII letters.

* Another change in docs to mention non-ASCII-alphanumeric instead of just dash

* build(deps): bump actions/checkout from 3 to 4 (spf13#2028)

* Support usage as plugin for tools like kubectl (spf13#2018)

In this case the executable is `kubectl-plugin`, but we run it as:

    kubectl plugin

And the help text should reflect the actual usage of the command.

To create a plugin, add the cobra.CommandDisplayNameAnnotation:

    rootCmd := &cobra.Command{
        Use: "plugin",
        Annotations: map[string]string{
            cobra.CommandDisplayNameAnnotation: "kubectl plugin",
        }
    }

Internally this change modifies CommandPath() for the root command to
return the command display name instead of the command name. This is
used for error messages, help text generation, and completions.

CommandPath() is expected to have spaces and code using it already
handle spaces (e.g replacing with _), so hopefully this does not break
anything.

* Improve API to get flag completion function (spf13#2063)

The new API is simpler and matches the `c.RegisterFlagCompletionFunc()`
API.  By removing the global function `GetFlagCompletion()` we are more
future proof if we ever move from a global map of flag completion
functions to something associated with the command.

The commit also makes this API work with persistent flags by using
`c.Flag(flagName)` instead of `c.Flags().Lookup(flagName)`.

The commit also adds unit tests.
