Problem: Cannot define completion triggers and act upon it
Solution: add the new option 'isexpand' and add the complete_match()
function to return the completion matches according to the
'isexpand' setting (glepnir)
Currently, completion trigger position is determined solely by the
'iskeyword' pattern (\k\+$), which causes issues when users need
different completion behaviors - such as triggering after '/' for
comments or '.' for methods. Modifying 'iskeyword' to include these
characters has undesirable side effects on other Vim functionality that
relies on keyword definitions.
Introduce a new buffer-local option 'isexpand' that allows specifying
different completion triggers and add the complete_match() function that
finds the appropriate start column for completion based on these
triggers, scanning backwards from cursor position.
This separation of concerns allows customized completion behavior
without affecting iskeyword-dependent features. The option's
buffer-local nature enables per-filetype completion triggers.
