1. Make separate subpackage with completion files with proper requires 
   (prefered method).
2. Put %{_sysconfdir}/bash_completion.d to some "filesystem" or something 
   package (unlikely).

Make your choice. IMO "1" is preffered one. Take a look at other packages 
how to do it.

Require bash_completion for directory only is insane. I can even not have 
bash...
