The external-commands-only completion was briefly added in 3.1.0 and removed
in 3.1.1 (see #6798), which means we can remove some dead code.
Maybe we should just remove __fish_complete_external_command - it could break
users, but then again, we don't really have a way to stop people from starting
to use this deprecated function. The underscores ought to communicate that
this is function is private to fish but that is not enforced.
Fixes#6798
This re-adds some false positives: functions, builtins and abbreviations
are suggested after commands like sudo but I don't think anyone had
complained about that.
Fix 'string length: Unknown option': add `--` before $subcommand
Fix count $subcommand always = 1 with `sudo` and `doas`:
give argv as array to __fish_complete_subcommand

Using bare vars is more efficient because it makes the builtin `math`
expression cache more useful. That's because if you prefix each var with
a dollar-sign then the fish parser expands it before `math` is run.
Something like `math x + 1` can be cached since the expression is the
same each time it is run. But if you do `math $x + 1` and x==1 then you're
effectively executing `math 1 + 1`. And if x==2 the next time then you're
running `math 2 + 1`. Which makes the expression cache much less effective.
I hate doing this but I am tired of touching a fish script as part of
some change and having `make style` radically change it. Which makes
editing fish scripts more painful than it needs to be. It is time to do
a wholesale reformatting of these scripts to conform to the documented
style as implemented by the `fish_indent` program.
