Accept "cd dir/" again instead of using a subdirectory
Commit 69053d962 (Use menu behavior when completing change-directory, 2022-07-19) made ":cd dir/" actually run ":cd dir/first-subdir", which can be surprising. This is usually irrelevant because you rarely type the trailing slash. However it does happen after correcting an error with `<backspace>` and friends. For for example, :cd d<tab>/f<backspace> results in :cd dir/ We should probably fix user expectations here. Do this by adding "dir/" as valid completion. This requires us to allow empty candidates in "RankedMatch" but there's no harm in that. This means we need to filter out empty completions from shell-script-candidates elsewhere. Alternative fix: we could revert 69053d962. This would remove the convenient menu behavior but that wouldn't be a huge deal. Fixes #4775
