Description:
The zsh autocompletion function is called "screen", which means that trying to start "screen" will launch this function instead of the actual screen program. To fix the issue and be consistent with other zsh autocompletion functions, the file /usr/share/zsh/site-functions/screen should be renamed to /usr/share/zsh/site-functions/_screen

Additional info:
* zsh v5.0.8-1
* screen v4.3.0-1


Steps to reproduce:
* Start zsh
* Type "screen" at the prompt.

Expected result: screen starts, actual result: an error message is printed: "_arguments:comparguments:312: can only be called from completion function"
