Improve pkg-config command bash completion.

Fedora has switched to pkgconf, but the bash completion is not as good as with pkg-config.

More precisely, the completion of the option names like --modversion.

Freedesktop pkg-config does not provide a bash-completion file. If there was one, it was specific to the fedora packaging.

I don't think it is appropriate to include a bash completion file with pkgconf, because other people would want other shell completion files, too.

I find it a bit strange to implement that downstream in each distro.

I think the only problem that I have with the bash completion with pkgconf is:
