81dd4a4536 [math] Remove more bare variable support
Prior to this fix, a "bare variable" in math like 'x + 1' would be
looked up in the environment, i.e. equivalent to '$x + 1'. This appears
to have been done for performance. However this breaks the orthogonality
of fish; performance is not a sufficient justification to give math this
level of built-in power, especially because the performance of math is
not a bottleneck. The implementation is also ugly.

Remove this feature so that variables must be prefixed with the dollar
sign and undergo normal variable expansion. Reading 'git grep' output
does not show any uses of this in fish functions or completions.

Also added to changelog.

Fixes #4393

c95b9f06e1 Implement support for bare vars by math
This change allows you to type `math x + 3` rather than `math $x + 3`.

Another step to resolving issue #3157.

d97c22df2d add floating point output to math command
This makes it easy for the user to request floating point output with the
desired number of digits after the decimal point (not to be confused with
significant digits).

Note that this is just a thin wrapper so someone can say `math -s3 10 / 3`
rather than `math "scale=3; 10 /3"`.

Resolves #1643
