Subject: completion: do not add trailing space when completing --exec-path

--exec-path looks like to the completion script like an unambiguous
successful completion, but it is wrong.  The user could be trying to
do

	git --exec-path; # print name of helper directory

or

	git --exec-path=/path/to/alternative/helper/dir <subcommand>

so the most helpful thing to do is to leave out the trailing space and
leave it to the operator to type an equal sign or carriage return
according to the situation.
