dca6eee55f docs: Less "the user", more "you"
The person reading this is "you". It's completely okay and sounds
better to address them directly.

When we're talking about OS users or users of fish script the reader
writes, "the user" is still okay.

63adb6871b docs: "fish" is a normal word
We don't need to emphasize it with a monospace block.

Just on index.rst for now.

Work towards #6785.

021d4157ca Fix hybrid binding instructions
This needs to have the vi-bindings take precedence, so they need to be
executed *last*.

It just needs to tell them that they shouldn't erase all the bindings.

docs: Use \ instead of \\ in examples (#7286)
Instead of informing the bell character (hex 07), the example was using
an escaped \ followed by x07.

    $ echo \\x07
    \x07
    $ echo \x07

    $ echo \x07 | od -a
    0000000 bel  nl
    0000002
    $

* docs: Use \u instead of \\u

Instead of informing the Unicode character 慡, this example was using an
escaped \ followed by u6161.

    $ echo \\u6161
    \u6161
    $ echo \u6161
    慡

Before:

    $ string escape --style=var 'a1 b2'\\u6161 | string unescape --style=var
    a1 b2\u6161

Now:

    $ string escape --style=var 'a1 b2'\u6161 | string unescape --style=var
    a1 b2慡

ed212c631c Correct Emacs bindings in vi insert mode
The original instruction does not actually enable Emacs key bindings in Vi mode. This fixes it.

a2b2bcef6e Add a $status_generation variable that's incremented for each interactive command that produces a status.
This can be used to determine whether the previous command produced a real status, or just carried over the status from the command before it. Backgrounded commands and variable assignments will not increment status_generation, all other commands will.

65f932edd2 docs: Also mention functions and type
One of the nicest things about fish is how introspectable it is. We

implemented how. This is a step in that direction.

Let __fish_prepend_sudo use the last commandline if there is no current one (#7079)
* docs/faq: Mention prepend_sudo

[ci skip]

* __fish_prepend_sudo: Use $history[1] if commandline is empty

Currently, if you press alt+s with an empty commandline, it inserts
"sudo", which seems fairly useless.

Now, it inserts "sudo " followed by the last history entry, which
makes it a replacement for `sudo !!`.

fd45877848 docs: Link builtins
When we say "the XYZ command/builtin", we should typically include a
link. The exceptions are

- In the documentation for that command - no need to link to ulimit in
  the ulimit page
- When we've already linked before - not every thing needs to be
  clickable, or clicking it will cause the browser to mark fifty words
  as visited. This is roughly what wikipedia does for crosslinks.
