Make completion scripts part of the debian package

See original GitHub issue

Step 1 I installed dvc on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine with the following commands:

sudo wget https://dvc.org/deb/dvc.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dvc.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dvc

Step 2 To enable bash completion I downloaded completion script to /etc/bash_completion.d directory as described in https://dvc.org/doc/user-guide/autocomplete

It would be nice if completion script would be automatically installed with Debian package so step 2 wouldn’t be required.

@shcheklein @Naba7 We can definitely start by including the ones we have already into our packages. After #2069 is solved, the new release will simply include the updated scripts automatically.

@nik123 I guess that in this case, a “manual” check should be enough.
