Is there an easy way to test whether --format=cpu|gpu|opencl|cuda is
supported or not? (So that I can provide bash completion if it is
supported, but don't suggest completions that aren't supported?
Should I just check --list=build-info and enable it if the format
interface version is >= 11 and we have a jumbo version?

This should already work with bash completion, because I complete dy to
dynamic, then to dynamic_, and then list all the individual dynamic formats.

Currently bash completion does this:
$ ./john --format=hmac-
hmac-md5     hmac-sha224  hmac-sha384
hmac-sha1    hmac-sha256  hmac-sha512

Should I add a hmac-* (of course, only if there already are multiple
possible completions)?
Should this also depend on jumbo + format version >= 11?

--format=*256*

I think I'll not support that in bash completion, even if you decide to
add support for it.
