dda0c8178d docs: Remove "Variable scope for functions" chapter
This didn't need to be separately.

Also rename "More on universal variables" because it's the chapter on
universal variables.

9e1c8a70bf docs/string: Add a -- example to the match section
This keeps tripping people up. We can't mention it *everywhere*, but
lets see if it works just in "match", since that sees to be where
people hit it most.

ddcb14c8f8 docs: Make color variables envvar definitions
This allows linking them from elsewhere (currently fish_indent) and
also improves the formatting - the code formatting here isn't actually a good look.

4c39aeed87 abbr: Let --function use a mandatory argument
This now means `abbr --add` has two modes:

```fish
abbr --add name --function foo --regex regex
```

```fish
abbr --add name --regex regex replacement
```

This is because `--function` was seen to be confusing as a boolean flag.

d2cd6c1cd6 docs: Remove the term "wrapper"
This committed the sin of introducing a concept by giving it two
names:

> An alias, or wrapper, around ``ls`` might look like this

The term "wrapper" doesn't pull its weight here. It's simpler to just
call them aliases throughout. We do use "a simple wrapping function"
in another place, but that's to define "alias", not as a separate name.

e08f4db1f9 Rename abbreviation cursor "sentinel" to "marker"
Also default the marker to '%'. So you may write:

    abbr -a L --position anywhere --set-cursor "% | less"

or set an explicit marker:

   abbr -a L --position anywhere --set-cursor=! "! | less"

01039537b0 Remove abbreviation triggers
Per code review, this does not add enough value to introduce now.
Leaving the feature in history should want want to revisit this

35a4688650 Rename abbreviation triggers
This renames abbreviation triggers from `--trigger-on entry` and
`--trigger-on exec` to `--on-space` and `--on-enter`. These names are less
precise, as abbreviations trigger on any character that terminates a word
or any key binding that triggers exec, but they're also more human friendly
and that's a better tradeoff.

1402bae7f4 Re-implement abbreviations as a built-in
Prior to this change, abbreviations were stored as fish variables, often
universal. However we intend to add additional features to abbreviations
which would be very awkward to shoe-horn into variables.

Re-implement abbreviations using a builtin, managing them internally.

Existing abbreviations stored in universal variables are still imported,
for compatibility. However new abbreviations will need to be added to a
function. A follow-up commit will add it.

Now that abbr is a built-in, remove the abbr function; but leave the
abbr.fish file so that stale files from past installs do not override
the abbr builtin.

d640e0d0d6 docs/language: Some slight tweaks
It reads nicer to not have the "see also" thing right in the first
paragraph. I'm not even done reading this, why are you sending me
elsewhere?

(of course if it's a hotlink on a specific word that's different)
