[Bug 1715226] [NEW] okular command line completion filters valid files

[pbhj]

Public bug reported:

When issuing a command from a shell (bash, standard user; via Yakuake)
such as "okular ~/home/stuff/" tab auto-completion shows the list of
files that will autocomplete.

Unfortunately it filters out valid files making entry of those files
almost impossible. In my case it's a docx file - opening okular and then
using the File > Open... command works perfectly.

Tab-autocompletion makes it appear as if the file doesn't even exist
(which confused me no end), the files with the wrong extension [or
possibly magic number, I didn't test] are hidden.

Right click from Dolphin, "open with" and choosing okular fails silently
- seems like it could be a related bug?
