implement limits on command substitution output

This makes command substitutions impose the same limit on the amount
of data they accept as the `read` builtin. It does not limit output of
external commands or builtins in other contexts.

Fixes #3822

 - `complete` now has a `-k`/`--keep-order` flag to keep the order of the OPTION_ARGUMENTS (#361).
 - A "--delimiter" option to `read` as a better alternative to the `IFS` variable (#4256).
 - `set` has a new `--show` option to show lots of information about variables (#4265).
+- Command substitution output is now limited to 10 MB by default (#3822).
 
 ## Other significant changes
 - `read` now requires at least one var name (#4220).
