[KARAF-208] when reusing the karaf shell outside of OSGi where there's only one shell scope, it would be nice to avoid prefixing the command names with the scope or with "*:" which is confusing

Description

e.g. you get output like this...

in/scalate nosuchcommand
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Command not found:  *:nosuchcommand
        at org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.shell.Closure.execute(Closure.java:225)
        at org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.shell.Closure.executeStatement(Closure.java:162)
        at org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.shell.Pipe.run(Pipe.java:101)
        at org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.shell.Closure.execute(Closure.java:79)
        at org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.shell.CommandSessionImpl.execute(CommandSessionImpl.java:71)
        at org.apache.karaf.shell.console.Main.run(Main.java:155)
        at org.apache.karaf.shell.console.Main.run(Main.java:91)
        at org.fusesource.scalate.tool.ScalateMain$.main(ScalateMain.scala:14)
        at org.fusesource.scalate.tool.ScalateMain.main(ScalateMain.scala)

or on tab completion you tend to get all commands replicated with their command name, plus scope:foo.

e.g. tab completion inside scalate looks like this...

confexport           create               exit                 help                 run                  scalate:confexport   scalate:create       scalate:exit         scalate:help         scalate:run          scalate:tojade
scalate:toscaml      tojade               toscaml

and help shows this...

> bin/scalate help
