retitle 9598 C-x b completion should also display current buffer.

That's on purpose: C-x b is about moving to another buffer, so it
explicitly excludes the current buffer.

It's somewhat difficult to distinguish the "all-completions for display"
case from the "all-completions for completion" in the existing
completion framework.
But I'll see how we can get that behavior.
