Hi,

This patch adds missing tab completion support in psql for:

- SERVER keyword after ALTER/CREATE SUBSCRIPTION <name>
- CONNECTION keyword after ALTER/CREATE FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER <name>

Currently, typing "ALTER SUBSCRIPTION sub1 SERVER" and pressing Tab
does not complete server names, even though the SERVER keyword itself
is already suggested. Similarly, CONNECTION is not suggested as a
completion candidate for FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER commands, despite being
a valid option.

The patch is generated against the current master branch.

Regards,
Atsuo Yamaguchi
