* lisp/erc/erc-pcomplete.el (erc-completion-mode): New alias for the
variable `erc-pcomplete-mode' to complement the function alias of the
corresponding minor-mode command. Given that user code operating on the
value of `erc-modules' needs to detect whether members are active, it
only makes sense to address this specially. Before this change,
applying `bound-and-true-p' to `erc-completion-mode' would always return
nil, even when the module was active. For normal aliases, that's indeed
expected because `define-erc-module' doesn't automatically define a mode
variable for a non-nil ALIAS argument. Although in the long term it
probably should, while also obsoleting the "new" alias simultaneously,
that would likely break some user code and doubtless complicate things
majorly for `pcomplete', the one in-tree outlier. The latter module
would then require changing either its preferred name, the one
advertised by `erc-modules' in its Custom definition, to `pcomplete' or
its primary name to `completion'. Both are quite churn-inducing.
