Fixed in git, e255627, in cooperation with Rishabh Dave.

(See also https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/nano-devel/2016-04/msg00071.html.)

Sorry, Rishabh, I forgot to pass --author when committing the change.  :|

It works fine for absolute paths, though -- paths that start with a slash.

To reproduce, start nano, type ^R ^T, look for the name of a directory, type M-G plus the first few letters of its name, and hit Tab.  The name will be completed.

Press Enter to go into that directory.  Now do the same again: look for the name of a directory, type M-G plus the first few letters of its name, and hit Tab.  Oops!  Doesn't work.

Now type ^K, type the same first few letters you typed at the beginning (that is: the first few letters of the directory you are now in), and hit Tab -- the name completes!  But that directory doesn't exist here!

(Bug is old -- exists since at least 2.2.2.)
