What to build

dot kde save's tab-completion (cmd_complete in commands/kde/kde.py) currently only enumerates schema-backed identifiers via iter_schema_identifiers — it was built as a side effect of the diff task (0003) and never revisited when the shortcuts mechanism (0005) landed. Extend cmd_complete to also enumerate shortcut identifiers.

Source the shortcut identifiers live via kglobalaccel, mirroring how schema identifiers are freshly parsed from .kcfg files on every call: call allMainComponents() to get every registered component's componentUnique, then allActionsForComponent() per component (already used by _resolve_shortcut_action_id) to get every actionUnique, yielding kglobalshortcutsrc.<componentUnique>.<actionUnique> candidates. No caching — walk fresh on every invocation.

Print shortcut identifiers as their own block, after the existing schema-backed block — not merged into one interleaved sorted list. Keep them plain, with no friendly-name description text, matching the existing schema-identifier output style.

If the D-Bus walk fails for any reason — a non-zero busctl exit (RuntimeError, already raised by _kglobalaccel_call) or busctl itself being missing (OSError from subprocess.run) — swallow it silently: omit the shortcuts block, still print the schema block, and emit no stderr diagnostic.

Freeform identifiers (e.g. kxkbrc.Layout.Options) are explicitly out of scope for this task: there is no schema to enumerate them from, so this stays a permanent, accepted completion gap, not something to fix here.

Acceptance criteria

  • python3 kde.py complete includes every currently-registered kglobalshortcutsrc.<componentUnique>.<actionUnique> identifier, sourced live via allMainComponents/allActionsForComponent
  • Schema-backed identifiers print first, followed by shortcut identifiers, as two distinct blocks — not interleaved into one merged sorted list
  • Shortcut identifiers print plain, with no friendly-name description text
  • If the D-Bus walk raises RuntimeError or OSError, the shortcuts block is omitted, the schema block still prints normally, and nothing is written to stderr
  • Freeform identifiers remain unlisted by cmd_complete (unchanged, confirmed not a regression)
  • Verified manually against a live session — no new automated tests, consistent with the existing shortcuts-mechanism test carve-out (spec's testing decisions, 0005's Implementation Notes)
