GNU Make.

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.

d247c121a2 Check-in MuParser source
First step in fixing issue #3157 is to check-in the source code and hook
it into our build system.

The inclusion of the MuParser source adds the MIT License to those that
apply to fish. Update our documentation to reflect that fact.

The MuParser documentation is at
http://beltoforion.de/article.php?a=muparser.  The source was downloaded
from https://github.com/beltoforion/muparser/releases. It is also hosted
on Github, https://github.com/beltoforion/muparser/. I did not download
it from Github because that source contained just a couple of cleanup
changes which don't affect its behavior.

058e23720f Clarify notes on dependency errors, tests, and VCS integration.
An optional feature that suggests you install Python is okay;
core-dumping is not.

The note on tests was about fish development tests, not the `test`
builtin for conditional syntax.

Specifically mention git, hg, and svn in the VCS section.

146c62c603 getopt isn't used anymore, and getent itself is optional.
getopt doesn't work very well in the BSDs, and getent has plenty of
fallbacks to replace it when it's not available.

765891cc4e clarify where to post questions
We've gotten feedback from the Stackexchange team that too many fish
questions asked on stackoverflow don't really belong there. So clarify
the README to also point users at superuser for questions not related to
fish script.

1f06e5f0b9 add better support for IWYU and fix things
Remove the "make iwyu" build target. Move the functionality into the
recently introduced lint.fish script. Fix a lot, but not all, of the
include-what-you-use errors. Specifically, it fixes all of the IWYU errors
on my OS X server but only removes some of them on my Ubuntu 14.04 server.

Fixes #2957

8b67a1b26f make testing on local servers hermetic
I noticed while fixing issue #2702 that the fish program being tested
was sourcing config.fish files outside of the current build. This also
happens when Travis CI runs the tests but isn't an issue there because
of how Travis is configured to execute the tests.

I also noticed that running `make test` was polluting my personal fish
history; which will become a bigger problem if and when the fishd universal
var file is moved from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME to $XDG_DATA_HOME.

This change makes it possible for an individual to run the tests on
their local machine secure in the knowledge that only the config.fish and
related files from their git repository will be used and doing so won't
pollute their personal fish history.

Resolves #469

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.
