Make shell-script-candidates completer run in the background

Read output from the script as it comes and update the candidate
list progressively.

Disable updating of the list when a completion has been explicitely
selected.

 == Development version
 
+* `shell-script-candidates` completion now runs the script asynchronously
+  while displaying and updating results live.
+
 * `%val{window_range}` elements are now emitted as different strings
 
 * `+` only duplicates identical selections a single time to avoid surprising
