It's not _perfect_, but should hopefully ease the introduction a
teensy bit.
We use `timedatectl` because it's a reasonably simple command that
still uses subcommands and some generated candidates.

This printed weird things like
```fish
$ functions -x
functions: Unknown option '-x'
(Type 'help functions' for related documentation)
```
Instead, let's make it
```fish
$ functions -x
functions: Unknown option '-x'
(Type 'help functions' for related documentation)
```
This was printed basically everywhere.
The user knows what they executed on standard input.
A good example:
```fish
set c (subme 513)
```
used to print
```
fish: Too much data emitted by command substitution so it was discarded
set -l x (string repeat -n $argv x)
^
in function 'subme'
called on standard input
with parameter list '513'
in command substitution
called on standard input
```
and now it is
```
fish: Too much data emitted by command substitution so it was discarded
set -l x (string repeat -n $argv x)
^
in function 'subme' with arguments '513'
in command substitution
```
See #5434.
Now:
```
cd: Unknown option '-r'
~/dev/fish-shell/share/functions/cd.fish (line 40):
builtin cd $argv
^
in function 'cd' with arguments '-r'
in function 'f'
in function 'd'
in function 'b' with arguments '-1q --wurst'
in function 'a'
called on standard input
```
See #5434.
This printed things like
```
in function 'f'
called on standard input
in function 'd'
called on standard input
in function 'b'
called on standard input
in function 'a'
called on standard input
```
As a first step, it removes the empty lines so it's now
```
in function 'f'
called on standard input
in function 'd'
called on standard input
in function 'b'
called on standard input
in function 'a'
called on standard input
```
See #5434.
This switches env_var_t to be an immutable value type, and stores its
contents via a shared_ptr. This eliminates string copying when fetching
env_var_t values.
If a function process is deferred, allow it to be unbuffered.
This permits certain simple cases where functions are piped to external
commands to execute without buffering.
This is a somewhat-hacky stopgap measure that can't really be extended
to more general concurrent processes. However it is overall an improvement
in user experience that might help flush out some bugs too.
In a job, a deferred process is the last fish internal process which pipes
to an external command. Execute the deferred process last; this will allow
for streaming its output.
This searched for package.json in any parent, so just like finding
.git and .hg directories it _needs_ to use the physical pwd because
that's what git/hg/yarn use.
In general, if you do _any_ logic on $PWD, it should be the physical
path. Logical $PWD is basically only good for display and cd-ing
around with symlinks.

This merges a bunch of changes that clean up how the reader loop and input
works.
Prior to this fix, we abused wchar_t by cramming readline functions into
"private" regions. Readline functions then were further abused with
meta-readline functions like R_NULL or R_TIMEOUT.
This fix introduces a new type char_event_type_t which wraps up the "meta"
character types. A char event may be a null (try again), timeout, readline,
or real input character. These are all distinct values.
The reader loop is then refactored to handle these cases separately.
I believe this was selected to be artificially low for the sake
of it displaying well in prompts. But people should expect to get
the same output as can be gotten from `hostname`.
Fixes#5758
