For a completion of "/" Tramp tries to be silent, in order not to
surprise the many users which don't use Tramp with candidates like
"/adb:". They wouldn't know what's that.

The compromise is to show them only the default method "/scp:" (and
"/scpx:" due to completion), in order to give them an idea that there's
more in Emacs but the local file system.
