Hi,

When benchmarking an application I got annoyed at how basic the tab
completion for ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE/ENABLE TRIGGER and DROP TRIGGER
is. So here is a patch improving the tab completion around triggers. For
consistency I have also added the same completions to rules since their
DDL is almost identical.

Thanks for this patch; I'm playing around with rules at the moment and it was
very useful. A quick review:

- applies cleanly to HEAD

- does what it claims, i.e. adds tab completion support for this syntax:

    ALTER TABLE table { ENABLE | DISABLE } [ ALWAYS | REPLICA ] { RULE | 
TRIGGER } rule_or_trigger
    DROP TRIGGER trigger ON relation { CASCADE | RESTRICT }
    DROP RULE rule ON relation { CASCADE | RESTRICT }

- code style is consistent with the project style

One issue - the table's internal triggers will also be listed. which can result 
in
something like this:

database=> ALTER TABLE object_version DISABLE TRIGGER <TAB>
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916401"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916422"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916358"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916402"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916238"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916359"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916406"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916239"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916398"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916407"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916263"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916399"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916411"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916264"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916478"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916412"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916298"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916479"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916416"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916299"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916513"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916417"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916328"  
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916514"
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_a_1916421"  "RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_1916329"  
ts_vector_update

This is a bit of an extreme case, but I don't think manually manipulating
internal triggers (which can only be done as a superuser) is a common enough
operation to justify their inclusion. I suggest adding
'AND tgisinternal is FALSE' to 'Query_for_trigger_of_table' to hide them.
