psql: fix variable existence tab completion
psql has the :{?name} syntax for testing for a psql variable existence. This
commit implements a tab completion for this syntax. Notably, in order to
implement this we have to remove '{' from WORD_BREAKS. It appears that
'{' here from the very beginning and it comes from the default value of
rl_basic_word_break_characters. And :{?name} is the only psql syntax using
the '{' sign. So, removing it from WORD_BREAKS shouldn't break anything.
