8f8c4cdd17 Implement new read --null flag
The `--null` flag to `read` makes it split incoming lines on NUL instead
of newlines. This is intended for processing the output of a command
that uses NUL separators (such as `find -print0`).

Fixes #1694.

973dd6ffbd read: Support arrays, character splitting
Enhance the `read` builtin to support creating an array with the --array
flag. With --array, only a single variable name is allowed and the
entire input is tokenized and placed into that variable as an array.

Also add custom behavior if IFS is empty or unset. In that event, split
the input on every character, instead of the previous behavior of doing
no splitting at all.

62d86b3d18 Fix documentation on variable scopes for read
The `read` docs incorrectly asserted that -g was the default for
variables. In actuality it behaves the same way that `set` does.

76e1cda495 Set single-line default prompt
Fish now doesn't join the fish_prompt output. This breaks the default
fish_prompt. Make default fish_prompt single-line. Fixes #203.

Add -l flag to 'read' documentation. Remove ambiguous '-x' description.
Fixes #157.
