The `--generated-content-path` and `--upload-path` defaults were the fixed
shared locations `/tmp/generated/content` and `/tmp/localai/upload`. On any
multi-user host these collide across accounts: macOS routes `/tmp` to the
shared `/private/tmp` for every user, so whichever account starts LocalAI
first creates the parent with 0750 perms and every other account then fails
startup with:
unable to create ImageDir: "mkdir /tmp/generated/content: permission denied"
unable to create UploadDir: "mkdir /tmp/localai/upload: permission denied"
The same happens on Linux once a stale root-owned `/tmp/generated` (e.g. from
a prior `sudo` run) is left behind. This bites the desktop launcher and any
app embedding the raw binary (Wingman, nib-desktop), which start `local-ai
run` with no path flags.
Default both paths under the OS temp dir (`os.TempDir()`, honoring `$TMPDIR`;
already per-user on macOS) namespaced by the current UID
(`TMPDIR/localai-<uid>/...`), so accounts never collide while the paths stay
ephemeral. Wired via new kong vars in main.go so every consumer of the raw
binary inherits the fix. All content subdirs (audio, images) derive from
`GeneratedContentDir`, so they are fixed transitively.
As defense in depth, the launcher also anchors these two paths under its own
per-user data directory (mirroring the #10610 fix for data/config), extracted
into a testable `BuildRunArgs`.

feat: add shell completion support for bash, zsh, and fish
- Add core/cli/completion.go with dynamic completion script generation
- Add core/cli/completion_test.go with unit tests
- Modify cmd/local-ai/main.go to support completion command
- Modify core/cli/cli.go to add Completion subcommand
- Add docs/content/features/shell-completion.md with installation instructions
The completion scripts are generated dynamically from the Kong CLI model,
so they automatically include all commands, subcommands, and flags.
