src: add "missing" bash completion options

Currently, when using the bash completions for node the normal completions for filenames directories do not work. For example, after finding a node completion and then wanting to use tab completion for a filename in the test directory, it is only possible to get the name of the test directory completed, followed by a space. What is expected is to be able to continue with tab completion for directories. This commit adds options to the complete command to enable default bash completions.
