We no longer use muparser, but tinyexpr.
tinyexpr does not have:
- "Statistical functions" like min, max, avg
- Multiple expressions separated with ","

56d9134534 contained an LRU cache plus
changes to the documentation; 95162ef19d
reverted both.
This commit re-adds the documentation changes, which are still correct.
This implements an LRU cache of recently seen math expressions. When
executing math inside loops and the like this can provide a 33% decrease
in the time to execute the `math` command.
We need our `math` builtin to behave like `bc` with respect to rounding
floating point values to integer to avoid breaking to many existing
uses. So when scale is zero round down to the nearest integer.
Another change for #3157.
The MuParser supports the concept of multiple expressions separated by
commas. This implements support for that so that you can do things like
this:
set results (math '1+1, 4*2, 9^2')
This is the second baby step in resolving #3157. Implement a bare minimum
builtin `math` command. This is solely to ensure that fish can be built
and run in the Travis build environments. This is okay since anyone running
`builtin math` today is already getting an error response.
Also, more work is needed to support bare var references, multiple result
values, etc.
The previous change to use `argparse` for parity with every other
builtin and function introduced a regression. Invocations that start
with a negative number can fail because the negative value looks like an
invalid flag.
This makes it easy for the user to request floating point output with the
desired number of digits after the decimal point (not to be confused with
significant digits).
Note that this is just a thin wrapper so someone can say `math -s3 10 / 3`
rather than `math "scale=3; 10 /3"`.
Resolves#1643
Rework for Doxygen >1.8. Moved large parts of the documentation to a

builtin, case, cd, commandline, count, else, emit, fish_config, funced,
function, functions, history, math, mimedb, nextd, not, popd, prevd,
pushd, pwd, random, read, set, set_color, switch, test, trap, type,
