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

18e332772d functions: Add "--no-details" flag and use it in funced

e1d19cf571 Don't touch $SHLVL if not interactive
It's not super clear what $SHLVL is useful for, but the current
definition is essentially
"number of shells in the parent processes + 1"

which isn't *super useful*?

Bash's behavior here is a bit weird in that it increments $SHLVL
basically always, but since it auto-execs the last process it will
decrement it again, so in practice it's often not incremented.

E.g.

```
> echo $SHLVL
1
> bash -c 'echo $SHLVL; bash'
2
>> echo $SHLVL
2
```

Both bashes here end up having the same $SHLVL because this is
equivalent to `echo $SHLVL; exec bash`. Running `echo $SHLVL` and then
`bash -c 'echo $SHLVL'` in an interactive bash will have a different
result (1 and 2) because that doesn't *exec* the inner bash.

That's not something we want to get into, so what we do is increment
$SHLVL in every interactive fish. Non-interactive fish will simply
import the existing value.

That means if you had e.g. a bash that runs a fish script that ends up
opening a new fish session, you would have a $SHLVL of *2* - one for the
bash, and one for the inner fish.

We key this off is_interactive_session() (which can also be enabled
via `fish -i`) because it's easy and because `fish -i` is asking for
fish to be, in some form, "interactive".

That means most of the time $SHLVL will be "how many shells am I deep,
how often do I have to `exit`", except for when you specifically asked
for a fish to be "interactive". If that's a problem, we can rethink it.

Fixes #7864.

93eaa61294 Split up documentation
This breaks apart the massive "index" document into

1. An "index" document that explains how to install and set up fish
and links to the other documents
2. A "fish-language" document that describes the syntax and semantics
of the language
3. A "fish-interactive" document that describes how to use fish
interactively

No change to the content has been made, only the parts have been moved
from index and some of the formatting (links and header levels) were
fixed.

See #7348.

c96a07dc96 Revert "Prevent redirecting internal processes to file descriptors above 2"
FDs are inherited, and redirecting those is harmless, and forbidding
that is worse than allowing all.

5b4db4a6ea docs: Remove some useless wrappers
The "classic" theme is a mostly useless wrapper around the basic theme
that just adds a collapsible sidebar (that we no longer have).

Moving to basic directly drops a layer of indirection and a file that
needs to be transferred over the net.

Same thing goes for "default.css" which literally just includes
classic.css (WHYYYY???)

(also this removes some useless javascript)

12e059adf8 docs: Hardcode a list of short builtins for unmatched search
Unfortunately this has both stopwords and a length limit, and things
like "and" just are tough to search.

So what we do is leave everything as it is, but when a search fails,
we show a list of things that are hard to search for, currently that's
"and", "for", "if" and such.

11a373f121 Prevent redirecting internal processes to file descriptors above 2
The user may write for example:

    echo foo >&5

and fish would try to output to file descriptor 5, within the fish process
itself. This has unpredictable effects and isn't useful. Make this an
error.

Note that the reverse is "allowed" but ignored:

    echo foo 5>&1

this conceptually dup2s stdout to fd 5, but since no builtin writes to fd
5 we ignore it.

5a0aa7824f Saturate exit codes to 255 for all builtins
After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and
`functions --query`.

This commit:
- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
  not state the exit code in its API.
- Updates the CHANGELOG to reflect the change to all builtins.

6dd6a57c60 Saturate return value in builtin_set_query
builtin_set_query returns the number of missing variables. Because the
return value passed to the shell is an 8-bit unsigned integer, if the
number of missing variables is a multiple of 256, it would overflow to 0.

This commit saturates the return value at 255 if there are more than 255
missing variables.

b3626d48e7 Highlight keywords differently
This introduces a new variable $fish_color_keyword that will be used
to highlight keywords. If it's not defined, we fall back on
$fish_color_command as before.

An issue here is that most of our keywords have this weird duality of
also being builtins *if* executed without an argument or with
`--help`.

This means that e.g.

    if

is highlighted as a command until you start typing

    if t

and then it turns keyword.

594d51e7eb Add a separate --profile-startup option to profile startup
This goes to a separate file because that makes option parsing easier
and allows profiling both at the same time.

The "normal" profile now contains only the profile data of the actual
run, which is much more useful - you can now profile a function by
running

   fish -C 'source /path/to/thing' --profile /tmp/thefunction.prof -c 'thefunction'

and won't need to filter out extraneous information.
