Closes #3135.

This adds a FAQ entry for a recurring shell completion question: why Click can ask the shell to handle file/path completions, but cannot generally display one custom completion string while inserting another across Bash, Zsh, and Fish.

The answer points readers back to the shell completion customization docs for shell_complete, custom ParamType.shell_complete, and shell-specific completion integrations.

Validation:

  • tox -e docs
  • generated HTML contains the new FAQ section and resolves the shell-completion cross-reference
  • git diff --check
  • review-fix-loop: documentation FAQ is consistent with the current shell completion implementation
