Summary

• Support registering a cover-all completer for native commands PowerShell/PowerShell#25230

PR PowerShell/PowerShell#25230 adds the parameter -NativeFallback to Register-ArgumentCompleter to support registering a cover-all completer for native commands.

So, the doc about this cmdlet needs to be updated accordingly.

Details

• When a native command doesn't have a specific completer for it, the cover-all completer will be used for it.
• This will make it easy for a module like Microsoft.PowerShell.UnixTabCompletion to hook up with PowerShell to provide tab completion for many native commands on Linux and macOS systems.

After the change, a new parameter set gets added to Register-ArgumentCompleter:

Register-ArgumentCompleter -ScriptBlock <scriptblock> [-NativeFallback] [<CommonParameters>]

Please see the PR description for details and more context.
