The current implementation used to extract PS1 prompt for ovs-vsctl is
broken on recent Bash releases.
Starting from Bash 4.4 it's possible to use @P expansion in order to get
the quoted PS1 directly.
This commit makes the 2 bash completion files to use @P expansion in order
to get the quoted PS1 on Bash >= 4.4.
