Here is a patch to support new syntax in psql tab completion
and fix bugs to complete after an open parenthesis.

Supported additonal syntax are:
  - ALTER TABLE/INDEX/TABLESPACE SET/RESET with options
  - ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN SET/RESET with options
  - ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN SET STORAGE
  - CREATE TRIGGER with events
  - CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY
  - CREATE INDEX ON (without name)
  - CREATE INDEX ... USING with pg_am.amname instead of hard-corded names.

Fixes bugs are:
  Bug 1: Double parenthesis
    =# INSERT INTO pgbench_history VALUES (<TAB>
    =# INSERT INTO pgbench_history VALUES ((      <= wrong

  Bug 2: We cannot complete words if no whitespaces around a parenthesis.
    =# CREATE INDEX idx ON pgbench_history( <TAB>
                                          ^ no whitespace here

  Bug 3: should be completed with "(" before columns.
    =# CREATE INDEX foo ON pgbench_accounts USING BTREE <TAB>
    abalance  aid       bid       filler    <= wrong, should be "("

I adjusted previous_word() to split words not only with spaces but also
with non-alphabets, and removed a hack with find_open_parenthesis().

Comments?
