func MarkFlagCustom(flags *pflag.FlagSet, name string, f string) error {
	return flags.SetAnnotation(name, BashCompCustom, []string{f})
}
MarkFlagCustom adds the BashCompCustom annotation to the named flag in the flag set, if it exists.
Generated bash autocompletion will call the bash function f for the flag.
