6df86c6c23 math.rst: use 4 spaces instead of a tab for indentation
I personally prefer tabs but we always use spaces, so this is much
less surprising.

4efb1b1644 math.rst: use definition lists.
Also, follow the one-line per sentence rule as that has semantic
meaning for man/groff.

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

Moar docca

* moar tests

cbd8f5f63e math: Add log2
This was already in the documentation as an example, now it is
actually working.

Fixes #7734

5872f4522d math: Add --base option
Currently a bit limited, unfortunately printf's `%a` specifier is
absolutely unreadable.

So we add `hex` and `octal` with `0x` and `0` prefixes respectively,
and also take a number but currently only allow 16 and 8.

The output is truncated to integer, so scale values other than 0 are
invalid and 0 is implied.

The docs mention this may change.

5b1c000a2e math: Add bitwise and/or functions
Just as `math "bitand(5,3)"` and `math "bitor(6,2)"`.

These cast to long long before doing their thing,
so they truncate to an integer, producing weird results with floats.

That's to be expected because float representation is *very*
different, and performing bitwise operations on floats feels quite useless.

Fixes #7281.

02d0e50b61 Fix typo (verb clarification) in math.rst
Was: "parameter expansion takes before expressions are evaluated."
Now: "parameter expansion happens before expressions are evaluated."

I suspect the original intent was to use "takes place," but I see "happens" as less idiomatic and therefore may benefit non-English-native users.
