222a07e907 Allow compressed man pages in help
It seems Fedora compresses our whopping 340k of man pages.

Fixes #3130.

Inspired by @TieDyedDevil's work there.

cad1dc5293 Fix #1978:"ul: unknown escape sequence" when asking for help
It seems that `ul` can't handle the escape sequences for bold text that `nroff` generates on my system.  Fixed by either removing `| ul`, or adding `-c` to the `nroff` command.

Needs testing for old (OSX?) versions of nroff.

c78e56c509 Update various strings for translation, avoid _ for non-translations
Use __ instead of _ as a placeholder for ignored variables in `read`
statements.

76c6985f82 A little extra tweaking so builtin_print_help looks better
The terminal width magic that __fish_print_help learned doesn't help
when builtin_print_help runs it in a subshell. Instead, add an
undocumented --tty-width flag to __fish_print_help that's used to pass
the terminal width.

ac8c5910eb Rewrite __fish_print_help to produce better results
As a result of this rewrite, the output now:

* Expands to fit the terminal width, like `man` does
* Preprocesses the manpage with `tbl` just in case, since `man` does
  this, even though I doubt any fish manpages use `tbl` formatting.
* Handle bold/underline with the `ul` command as it was designed for
  instead of trying to fake it with `sed`.
* Compresses blank lines as `man` does with the default `less -is`
  pager.

61ebc12dd4 Minor polish like adding missing whitespace, switch to using --argument switch in function definitions to make code more readable, add a few minor saftey checks, etc.
