contrib: Add bash completion for new bitcoin command

Adds a bash completion script for the new bitcoin command-line
tool, which unifies the main Bitcoin Core executables under a
single interface. This feature improves usability, reduces errors,
and makes the command-line tools more easily discoverable for users
working in a Linux bash environment.

The completion script dynamically lists available commands and options
by parsing `bitcoin --help` and `bitcoin help`. It also incorporates
the existing bash completions for `bitcoind`, `bitcoin-cli`, and
`bitcoin-tx`, depending on the argument provided (node, rpc, or tx).
This ensures that all relevant completions are available seamlessly
through a single interface without modifying core functionality.

No functional changes to core code are introduced; this is an optional
enhancement placed under `contrib/` for easy installation and use.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a new bash tab-completion helper script for a new 'bitcoin' command-line wrapper tool. It only lives in the contrib/ directory (optional add-on files) and does not change any Bitcoin Core wallet, networking, or consensus code. There is no security issue visible in the change.

Recommended action

No security action required; review as normal contrib/UX improvement if desired.
