[PATCH] Completion: Fix various wording issues



Following again on workers/44242.

Patch #3: Fix various wording issues in these functions — eliminate redundant
labels, correct misspellings, generally make things more consistent.

The last issue i noticed with these is that _mkdir offers symbolic mode
completion for zf_mkdir (_chmod special-cases zf_chown, so it doesn't have the
same issue). We could just special-case that again, but maybe it'd be more
robust if we gave _file_modes an option that tells it to only offer octal
modes. That way, it'd always be consistent across functions
