umount /f/b<TAB> → /foo/bar

[Daniel Shahaf <d.s@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like «umount /f/b<TAB>» to complete to «umount /foo/bar».  Currently
it doesn't, due to _canonical_paths_add_paths() doing its own matching
obliviously to matchspecs in effect.

I tried to patch this.  I got it partly working: with the following
patch, «umount /f/b<TAB>» would honour matchspecs but «umount ../f/b<TAB>»
would not.  See the '###' comment within for the point I'm stuck at.

Hints?

Cheers,

Daniel
