For commands which support operating on files (i.e. disk images), it is
desirable for bash-completion to complete matching file names. It is
also desirable to complete on block device symlinks (e.g. under
/dev/disk). To complete common use cases, often on canonical device
names, continue to try completion using canonical device names, then
fall back to matching any file incrementally as Bash does by default.[1]

Some of the fsck and mkfs commands complete differently than the others,
and differently than the desired behavior.[1] Standardize on completing
with $(lsblk -pnro name):
* fsck: Don't complete completes on all block devices and device links
under /dev immediately (which is excessive and prone to search
problems).
* mkfs, mkfs.bfs: Don't complete "/path/to/file" literally. I assume
this was copy/pasted from example code, since it does not appear to be
a valid argument unless it is a valid path, which is rare.
* fsck.cramfs, mkfs, mkfs.bfs, mkfs.cramfs, mkswap: Don't complete on
all filenames initially. The desired behavior is to complete
filenames only if there are no canonical matches.[1]
Note: A subsequent commit will add the desired fallback behavior.

Earlier completion suggested only options for the command, this changes
options to be proposed when first character of an argument is dash.

The bash completion for more(1) treats the space-separated pieces of
filenames as different files.
$ touch foo\ bar
$ more foo<TAB>
bar foo

Users who know the short options can just hit the short option instead
of tab, and it's not likely that it would be helpful to present a list
of single character options to users who don't know them, doing so
just unnecessarily trashes the list of suggestions.
