Autocompletion for options with `split=...`

[Ruud Senden]

Suppose I have an option like the following:

@Option(names = "--opt", required = false, split = ",")
@Getter private SomeEnum[] values;

public static enum MyEnum { myOpt, otherOpt, someOpt }

This would allow users to enter something like this on the command line: --opt myOpt,someOpt.

However, autocompletion only seems to support a single option value:

• --opt my<tab><tab> generates --opt myOpt with a trailing space, so you'd need to do a backspace to enter a comma
• --opt myOpt,<tab><tab> doesn't show any completion candidates

Any chance that this can be improved, in particular the second item?

Sorry for the late response.
My time to work on picocli is extremely limited.
I can review pull requests but I don't see myself working on this ticket myself in the near future...
