Force the autocompletion script generator to always write to a new
empty file, thus preventing the potential corruption of script contents.

Future updates might change the outcome of the resulting scripts and the
comments describing the script output would need to be updated every
time as well. It's not worth the effort.
Remove the comments that list script examples from the functions
generate_bash_autocomp() and generate_zsh_autocomp().

For Bash, when compspecs are found the generated script is returned as
the full set of possible completions and default completions are
disabled [1]. This leads to the behaviour that command line arguments
are not completed, only options defined by the script.
Zsh has the same issue.
Fix the issue by always adding the bash defaults to the generated
script. For zsh the corresponding file completion is always added to the
end of the argument list and the -A "*" option is added to allow
completion after positional arguments.

Apply coding style changes by reducing line breaks for a more compactly
generated script and add double quotes to fix ShellCheck findings.
Furthermore, remove the unused variable previous_word and use mapfile to
read the output of compgen into the COMPREPLY array to avoid unwanted
splitting and glob expansion.

Add functionality for generating autocompletion scripts,
allowing for tab completion of tool options for bash and zsh.
This functionality relies on reading the available options
from the util_opt struct at runtime.
The script generation happens on the build system.
