readline AutoComplete - Faster tab completion

I've made some changes that allows for faster tab completion by backspacing all the needed characters at once, as opposed to one at a time.

Prior to this change, I've noticed some issues with very slow tab completion, especially when using a readline project over an ssh connection. I think this addresses those issues.

This PR is similar to the goal of #45, but makes much smaller changes, and passes all unit tests.

Thanks so much for this project, hope this change is useful!

I see what you did. I approve this change. Nice job! Did you already run all the tests on it to validate the changes too?

@Latency Yep, all tests seem to be passing!

Can you take a look at Ctrl+W .. It looks like you could do your magic there too.

Thoughts?

I have gone ahead and merged your efforts into my build. Although my PR is outstanding for about a year, it is the latest up to date since Torondo is busy.

@Latency Oh sweet, I'll check out your fork. I can look into Ctrl+W too

What I do is configure Remote Repositories to include whomever and that way you can track their changes to be merged into your branch.

It is showing that mine is the latest branch. I am working on getting PR admin access... so we can merge it to master.

I updated target framework versions today to latest as well. I believe I have a .nupkg port ready for download on my repository under 'artifacts'.

You can configure your Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Package Manager Settings to include the location of the newly downloaded file so it can find it in NuGet to be added rather than, or in conjunction to, the NuGet,org for now.
