I have added slightly tweaked (more win32-friendly) versions of these
to ipy_stock_completers.py.

Also, the stock completers are now installed in default
ipy_user_config.py. Run %upgrade to get the wheels rolling.

Esp. the %cd completer really is a major comfort improvement in shell
usage, everyone should try it out!
