Bug Description

There is no way to easily install shell completion support for command line apps for snaps.

Having a special file in the snap directory which will be picked by snapd (like for desktop files) and fuel them into the right bash/zsh and other popular directories will be great so that command line usability under snapd delivers a similar experience that other distribution methods.
