Rewrite the `abbr` function to store each abbreviation in a separate
variable. This greatly improves the efficiency. For the common case
it is 5x faster. For pathological cases it is upwards of 100x faster.
Most people should be able to unconditionally define abbreviations in
their config.fish without a noticable slow down.

The primary motivation for --keep-order for `complete` was to support
something like commit history completions, which are returned by git in
reverse chronological order and make no sense alphabetically (they are
SHA1 hashes).
See https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/361 for more info.
* Make npm run-script completion faster with `jq`
When jq is available, it's actually faster to invoke jq and parse the `package.json`
invoking the `npm` command.
Also, prior to this commit, both `__fish_complete_npm` and `__fish_npm_run` were being run
whenever completions for `npm run` subcommand was being used, which was actually making
repetitive work (invoking npm command twice). This pull request is supposed to make completion
without `jq` faster as well
* Refactor npm.fish for code reutilization
Created function to handle both cases of npm run completion parse, with or without `jq` completion.
* Remove unecessary blank line
The recent change to switch `psub` to use `argparse` caused it to use
a fifo by default because it inadvertently fixed a long standing bug in
the fish script. This changes the behavior back to `psub --file` being
the default behavior and introduces a `--fifo` flag. It also updates the
documentation to make it clearer when and why `--fifo` mode should not
be used.
Fixes#4222
While updating the `history` function to use `argparse` I realized it is
useful to define an option that can be used in three ways. First by
using the short flag; e.g., `-n NNN`. Second by using the long flag;
e.g., `--max NNN`. Third, as an implicit int flag; e.g., `-NNN`. This
use case is now supported by a spec of the form `n#max`.
A recent regression to the `alias` command points out the need for more
unit tests of its behavior. I also decided to use it as an opportunity
to normalize the output of just `alias` to list aliases.
The previous change to use `argparse` for parity with every other
builtin and function introduced a regression. Invocations that start
with a negative number can fail because the negative value looks like an
invalid flag.
