21f5032a55 docs: Don't speak of "initialization files"
The file is called "config.fish", not "init.fish". We'll call it
"configuration" now.

"Initialization" might be slightly more precise, but in an irritating
way.

Also some wording improvements to the section. In particular we now
mention config.fish *early*, before the whole shebang.

cfc8d14a8d docs: Force sections to be full-width
Otherwise there's this weird *gap*, where the sections are narrow even
tho there's plenty of space?

So you have this screen layout:

```table
| sidebar | text        |
| sidebar | narr        |
| sidebar | ower        |
| sidebar | than        |
| sidebar | need        |
| sidebar | ed          |
```

For some gosh-forsaken reason.

33f3c03dae Allow on-job-exit handlers to be added for any pid in the job
Prior to this change, a function with an on-job-exit event handler must be
added with the pgid of the job. But sometimes the pgid of the job is fish
itself (if job control is disabled) and the previous commit made last_pid
an actual pid from the job, instead of its pgroup.

Switch on-job-exit to accept any pid from the job (except fish itself).
This allows it to be used directly with $last_pid, except that it now
works if job control is off. This is implemented by "resolving" the pid to
the internal job id at the point the event handler is added.

Also switch to passing the last pid of the job, rather than its pgroup.
This aligns better with $last_pid.

d5a30ed103 docs: Split off links to other pages into its own section
This is an attempt to make these more visible - the intro section
explains what this is, and then we mention where to go, and after that
we go into installation and stuff.

I don't think putting "where to go" *after* the installation
instruction is correct, but maybe it is? For the time being, we keep
the order as it is.

240fb9fd45 docs: Unbreak sphinx' man directories
Apparently new sphinxen want to create an *additional* section

2b74affaf0 Add prompt selector
It's a bit weird to *have* to fire up a browser to get fish_config to
choose a prompt.

So this adds a `prompt` subcommand to `fish_config`:

- `fish_config prompt list` shows all the available prompt names
- `fish_config prompt show` demos the available sample prompts
- `fish_config prompt choose` sources a prompt
- `fish_config prompt save` makes the choice permanent

A bare `fish_config` or `fish_config browse` opens the web UI.

Part of #3625.

TODO: This shows the right prompt on a new line. Showing it in-line is awkward
to do because we'd have to move it to the right.

2cea5b8eb1 Add a "prompt_login" helper function
This prints a description of the "host". Currently that's

`(chroot:debianchroot) $USER@$hostname`

with the chroot part when needed.

This also switches the default and terlar prompts to use it, the other
prompts have slightly different coloring or logic here.

58885fbd0b docs: Handle undefined LINK_SUFFIX
When building the docs with an old sphinx (like e.g. on Debian), this
would break links in the search results.

This happens because we've nabbed the searchtools.js from a sphinx to
add our special handling of short builtins like "and", "end", "cd" (as
part of #7757).

I don't believe this will change *a lot* in practice, so it's probably
still okay, but this hack is still worthwhile.

math: Make function parentheses optional (#7877)
* math: Make function parentheses optional

It's a bit annoying to use parentheses here because that requires
quoting or escaping.

This allows the parens to be omitted, so

math sin pi

is the same as

math 'sin(pi)'

Function calls have the lowest precedence, so

math sin 2 + 6

is the same as

math 'sin(2 + 6)'

* Add more tests

* Add a note to the docs

* even moar docs

e1d19cf571 Don't touch $SHLVL if not interactive
It's not super clear what $SHLVL is useful for, but the current
definition is essentially
"number of shells in the parent processes + 1"

which isn't *super useful*?

Bash's behavior here is a bit weird in that it increments $SHLVL
basically always, but since it auto-execs the last process it will
decrement it again, so in practice it's often not incremented.

E.g.

```
> echo $SHLVL
1
> bash -c 'echo $SHLVL; bash'
2
>> echo $SHLVL
2
```

Both bashes here end up having the same $SHLVL because this is
equivalent to `echo $SHLVL; exec bash`. Running `echo $SHLVL` and then
`bash -c 'echo $SHLVL'` in an interactive bash will have a different
result (1 and 2) because that doesn't *exec* the inner bash.

That's not something we want to get into, so what we do is increment
$SHLVL in every interactive fish. Non-interactive fish will simply
import the existing value.

That means if you had e.g. a bash that runs a fish script that ends up
opening a new fish session, you would have a $SHLVL of *2* - one for the
bash, and one for the inner fish.

We key this off is_interactive_session() (which can also be enabled
via `fish -i`) because it's easy and because `fish -i` is asking for
fish to be, in some form, "interactive".

That means most of the time $SHLVL will be "how many shells am I deep,
how often do I have to `exit`", except for when you specifically asked
for a fish to be "interactive". If that's a problem, we can rethink it.

Fixes #7864.
