Description

It would be amazing if httpie could default-install completions for the awesome fish shell.

Reference: https://fishshell.com/docs/current/#where-to-put-completions

Example of other great tools that does this:

ll  /usr/share/fish/vendor_completions.d
.rw-r--r-- 4.4k root root 25 Apr 13:48 bat.fish
.rw-r--r--  51k root root 11 Mar  2:24 docker.fish
.rw-r--r--  12k root root  9 May 17:38 rg.fish

Research direction
The issue requests adding fish shell completions for HTTPie. The maintainers have not provided specific implementation guidance. Contributors should review the fish shell documentation on completions (https://fishshell.com/docs/current/#where to put completions) and study existing completions in other tools like bat, docker, and rg. The completion file should be placed in the appropriate vendor completions.d directory or generated dynamically. Check issue comments for any additional requirements or discussions. The current repository setup may need to include the completion file in installation steps.
