* lisp/simple.el (next-completion): Handle first completion specially.

When completions-header-format is nil and completion-show-help is nil,
the first completion is at the beginning the buffer, so 'M-<down>'
missed it and moved to the second completion.  Handle this case by
setting/checking the special text-property 'first-completion' that
is nil at the first call (bug#60411).
