Improved tab completion for PostgreSQL parameters in enums

If you do tab completion in a situation like A, you will see ["on"] instead

A : "ALTER SYSTEM SET wal_compression TO "

I made a patch for this problem.

This would break the completion of enum entries that require quotes to
work properly for some of their values, like
default_transaction_isolation.

I do not think this is an improvement. It will result in omitting
quotes in some cases where they're not optional. Try it with a
value such as "all", for example.

Thank you for comments.

I understand these comments, and the proposal was withdrawn.
