11a373f121 Prevent redirecting internal processes to file descriptors above 2
The user may write for example:

    echo foo >&5

and fish would try to output to file descriptor 5, within the fish process
itself. This has unpredictable effects and isn't useful. Make this an
error.

Note that the reverse is "allowed" but ignored:

    echo foo 5>&1

this conceptually dup2s stdout to fd 5, but since no builtin writes to fd
5 we ignore it.

5a0aa7824f Saturate exit codes to 255 for all builtins
After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and
`functions --query`.

This commit:
- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
  not state the exit code in its API.
- Updates the CHANGELOG to reflect the change to all builtins.

6dd6a57c60 Saturate return value in builtin_set_query
builtin_set_query returns the number of missing variables. Because the
return value passed to the shell is an 8-bit unsigned integer, if the
number of missing variables is a multiple of 256, it would overflow to 0.

This commit saturates the return value at 255 if there are more than 255
missing variables.

b3626d48e7 Highlight keywords differently
This introduces a new variable $fish_color_keyword that will be used
to highlight keywords. If it's not defined, we fall back on
$fish_color_command as before.

An issue here is that most of our keywords have this weird duality of
also being builtins *if* executed without an argument or with
`--help`.

This means that e.g.

    if

is highlighted as a command until you start typing

    if t

and then it turns keyword.

7eb616b787 docs: Make some things subsections
E.g. autoloading and aliases are both about functions, variable scope
and overrides are both about variables.

It makes sense to group these together, and this might allow us to
collapse some of the TOC later.

594d51e7eb Add a separate --profile-startup option to profile startup
This goes to a separate file because that makes option parsing easier
and allows profiling both at the same time.

The "normal" profile now contains only the profile data of the actual
run, which is much more useful - you can now profile a function by
running

   fish -C 'source /path/to/thing' --profile /tmp/thefunction.prof -c 'thefunction'

and won't need to filter out extraneous information.

ca3d226659 docs: Fix TOC text and put them in a div
This allows us to flex them together, so now you get one column on the
left with the title "Documents" and one on the right saying
"Sections" on narrow screens.

On wide screens it doesn't say "Table Of Contents" twice.

This should make it clearer

3d180b7c50 docs: Make TOC appear first on narrow screens
This used to put the TOC last, which is the last place you'd want it.

It's not perfect and we do some hacky layoutery to achieve it, but it
should generally be usable.

cbc9de3663 docs: Make the lines in the code examples shorter
We should typically avoid scrolling even at max-width.

An exception here is the output of `functions` - this prints one very
long line, but it's really not important what's in there specifically,
it's just to illustrate the kind of output you'd get.

117e663efe docs/theme: Remove horizontal scrolling on small screens
This clips overflowing padding/margins and thereby removes
non-"content" that's just off-screen, making the site scrollable.

The exception here is for tables - we allow scrolling the *section*
divs for those (because I have no idea how to only make the <table>
scrollable), if necessary of course.

Add a foot note explaining the apparent contradiction.
