484c1484c9 Customisable extra configuration, completion and function directories
- Add options to the autotools build to set the path for the "vendor"
   or "extra" configuration snippets, functions and completions
   directories.

 - Remove the vendor_completions directory from the Xcode build, as
   these are relocatable and compiling the paths in does not make sense.

This allows packaging tools like Homebrew and Nix to use a common
directory outside of the main prefix for third-party completions, and
to make these available for programmatic discovery through `pkg-config`.

Closes #2113

cb6d5d76c8 update lexicon for latest docs
Closes #2699

Fixes issues with:
* 'string' function synopsis
* Redirection display issues
* Better file & path detection
* Rendering of % & @ chars in both html and man
* @ symbol in tutorial

Improves robustness by implementing an @EOL marker to prevent hold buffer dumping extra chars after the end of an expression.

Added new '{{' and '}}' meta-chars for when you want curly braces in a regexp that was previously tripping up the lexicon.

Improve man/html presentation consistency for
* string
* printf
* prompt_pwd
* type

Use cli-styling for 'practical' examples.

Add <bs> tag for presenting content with preceding backslash.

9d2b53450a limit size of cd history to 25 directories
The existing implementation grows the $dirprev array without bounds. Besides
causing what would appear to be a memory leak it also makes the nextd and
prevd commands more expensive than they need to be. It also makes it harder to
create a useful "menu" cd command.

In addition to implementing a reasonable limit on the size of the $dirprev
array I've reformatted the code using fish_indent.

Update the documentation to include mentions of the $dirprev and $dirnext
variables as well as the limit on how much directory history is kept.

Fixes 2836

f2246dfb34 reduce number of Unicode private-use characters
This narrows the range of Unicode codepoints fish reserves for its own
use from U+E000 thru U+F8FE (6399 codepoints) to U+F600 thru U+F73F (320
codepoints). This is still not ideal since fish shouldn't be using any
Unicode private-use codepoints but it's a step in the right direction.

This partially addresses issue #2684.

c1b384e5d3 Add functions and configuration snippets hierarchy
This allows "vendors" (i.e. third-party upstreams interested in
supporting fish) to add auto-loaded functions and eager-loaded
configuration "snippets", while still allowing both the user and the administrator to
fully override all of that.

This has been inspired by systemd's configuration hierarchy, and implements a similar scheme
whereby files with the same name in higher-ranking directories override files in lower-ranking ones.

62b76b26b4 Reinstate failglob behaviour for most commands
Expand globs to zero arguments (nullglob) only for set, for and count.

The warning about failing globs, and setting the accompanying $status,
now happens regardless of mode, interactive or not.

It is assumed that the above commands are the common cases where
nullglob behaviour is desirable.
More importantly, doing this with `set` is a real feature enabler,
since the resulting empty array can be passed on to any command.

The previous behaviour was actually all nullglob (since commit
cab115c8b9), but this was undocumented;
the failglob warning was still printed in interactive mode,
and the documentation was bragging about failglob behaviour.

This changes the default escape timeout for the default keybindings (emacs
mode) to 300ms and the default for vi keybindings to 10ms.

I couldn't resist fixing a few nits in the fish_vi_key_bindings.fish file
since I was touching it to set the escape timeout.

b88e31b3f1 fix several build warnings
This fixes all but one of the warnings documented in issue #2685. The
sole remaining warning is from the

    string split '' abc

example in doc_src/string.txt. That example results in the man page
displaying

    string split {} abc

I leave it to someone else to fix that problem (I'll open an issue
specifically for it since it took some effort to track down the source
of the warning).

Resolves issue #2685.

ef31aa94f8 clarify the documentation of builtin random
The random builtin command may or may not produce values with a truly

make the command consistent with similar shells (e.g., bash, zsh) which
produce a range of [0..32767].

* Reorder the option descriptions to match the order as seen in usage.
* Update some of the option descriptions.
* Fix the documentation for -C to show that it must be `-CSTRING`
  instead of `-C STRING`.
* Document the behavior of `-C` with no argument.
* Tweak some of the explanatory text after the option list.
* Delete `--authoritative` and `--unauthoritative` from the
  documentation entirely. Those options appear to not actually do
  anything in the new parser.

dfaefb97ff remove "normal" from the basic color name table
The special token "normal" should not be in the basic sixteen color table
because a) it is not a color, and b) it is special cased with the result of
resetting the terminal colors (usually via a ANSI X3.64 CSI [0m sequence).

0a0acc8a2e add support for ANSI "bright" colors
This adds support for the ANSI x3.64 "bright" colors in the basic sixteen
color palette. This is especially useful when trying to use the base colors
as a background color. The "bright" variants tend to be more useful as
background colors compared to the non-bright variants.

This also fixes a bug in so far as palette number 7 is actually grey and
not white whereas palette number 15 is white. At least on the terminal
emulators on which I've tested this change (Ubuntu xterm & uxterm, Mac
OS X Terminal & iTerm2).

Resolves issue #1464.
