Tutorial auto colouring, Man page and Make fixes

Completely fixes #1557 and the underlying Doxygen changes that caused
it. Should make fish docs simpler and more robust, more consistent and
generally prettier.

todo:
- trap unmarked text as arguments in context
- test & fix sed portability - see in particular. (so far tested on BSD
(Mac) and GNU sed).
- test Makefile changes
- last round of aesthetic changes and getting that ascii fish in there…

`history` is used to list, search and delete the history of commands used.
The following options are available:
- `--merge` immediately incorporates history changes from other sessions. Ordinarily `fish` ignores history changes from sessions started after the current one. This command applies those changes immediately.
- `--save` saves all changes in the history file. The shell automatically saves the history file; this option is provided for internal use.
- `--clear` clears the history file. A prompt is displayed before the history is erased.
- `--merge` immediately incorporates history changes from other sessions. Ordinarily `fish` ignores history changes from sessions started after the current one. This command applies those changes immediately.
- `--search` returns history items in keeping with the `--prefix` or `--contains` options.
- `--delete` deletes history items.
- `--prefix` searches or deletes items in the history that begin with the specified text string.

A comma separated list of characters enclosed in curly braces will be expanded so each element of the list becomes a new parameter.
Example:
Examples:

\endfish
echo input.{c,h,txt}

echo $nonexistentvariable

`echo $nonexistentvariable` prints no output.
