/// A subcommand definition to `flatten` into your CLI
///
/// This provides a one-stop solution for integrating completions into your CLI
///
/// # Examples
///
/// The following example shows how to integrate completions into your CLI and generate completions.
///
/// 1. Build an application with derive API.
/// 2. Call `clap_complete::dynamic::shells::CompleteCommand::augment_subcommands` to add the `complete` subcommand into the application.
/// 3. Call `get_matches()`, or any of the other normal methods directly after.
///
/// For example:
///
/// ```no_run
/// // src/main.rs
/// use clap::{CommandFactory, FromArgMatches, Parser, Subcommand};
/// use clap_complete::dynamic::shells::CompleteCommand;
///
/// #[derive(Parser, Debug)]
/// #[clap(name = "dynamic", about = "A dynamic command line tool")]
/// struct Cli {
/// /// The subcommand to run complete
/// #[command(subcommand)]
/// complete: Option<CompleteCommand>,
/// /// Input file path
/// #[clap(short, long, value_hint = clap::ValueHint::FilePath)]
/// input: Option<String>,
/// /// Output format
/// #[clap(short = 'F', long, value_parser = ["json", "yaml", "toml"])]
/// format: Option<String>,
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
/// let cli = Cli::parse();
/// if let Some(completions) = cli.complete {
/// completions.complete(&mut Cli::command());
/// }
///
/// // normal logic continues...
/// }
///```
///
/// # Usage for complete subcommand:
///
/// To generate shell completion scripts and source them, we can use the following command.
///
/// **NOTE**: If you have set a custom shell configuration file,
/// please remember to modify the redirection output file in the following command.
///
/// - Bash
/// ```bash
/// echo "source <(your_program complete --shell bash --register -)" >> ~/.bashrc
/// ```
///
/// - Fish
/// ```fish
/// echo "source (your_program complete --shell fish --register - | psub)" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
/// ```
///
/// - Zsh
/// ```zsh
/// echo "source <(your_program complete --shell zsh --register -)" >> ~/.zshrc
/// ```
///
/// - Elvish
/// ```elvish
/// echo "eval (your_program complete --shell elvish --register -)" >> ~/.elvish/rc.elv
/// ```
///
/// - Powershell
/// ```powershell
/// echo "your_program complete --shell powershell --register - | Invoke-Expression" >> $PROFILE
/// ```
