bda147c7d3 Correct math docs
This was an oversight when math was changed to default to float output.

Also some more jokey stuff. Jokey stuff is nice.

5b1731331e [math] Add subsection headers to the docs
Otherwise this is printed as "math-syntax" in the man page.

9fc3d1215b [math] Check for runtime errors
When number is infinite, not a number, larger than LONG_MAX or smaller
than LONG_MIN, print a corresponding error and return STATUS_CMD_ERROR.

This should fix the worst of the problems, by at least making them clear.

Fixes #4479.
Fixes #4768.

234ebb5d7b [math] Fix docs
We no longer use muparser, but tinyexpr.

tinyexpr does not have:

- "Statistical functions" like min, max, avg

- Multiple expressions separated with ","

634feac600 [docs] Remove mention of cached variables from math
The variable cache was removed in
95162ef19d, so this is now wrong.

91a0ba9be5 Revert part of "Revert "Cache math expressions""
56d9134534 contained an LRU cache plus
changes to the documentation; 95162ef19d
reverted both.

This commit re-adds the documentation changes, which are still correct.

95162ef19d Revert "Cache math expressions"
This reverts commit 56d9134534.

An LRU cache in the shell for math seems like overkill.

56d9134534 Cache math expressions
This implements an LRU cache of recently seen math expressions. When
executing math inside loops and the like this can provide a 33% decrease
in the time to execute the `math` command.

b816cd6d50 Change how math rounds integer results
We need our `math` builtin to behave like `bc` with respect to rounding
floating point values to integer to avoid breaking to many existing
uses. So when scale is zero round down to the nearest integer.

Another change for #3157.

24d251ff4b Implement support for multiple math expressions
The MuParser supports the concept of multiple expressions separated by
commas. This implements support for that so that you can do things like
this:

    set results (math '1+1, 4*2, 9^2')

41a7b9457c Implement bare minimum builtin math command
This is the second baby step in resolving #3157. Implement a bare minimum
builtin `math` command. This is solely to ensure that fish can be built
and run in the Travis build environments. This is okay since anyone running
`builtin math` today is already getting an error response.

Also, more work is needed to support bare var references, multiple result
values, etc.

98449fec51 fix math regression
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.

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
