See the changelog additions for user-visible changes.
Since we enable/disable terminal protocols whenever we pass terminal ownership,
tests can no longer run in parallel on the same terminal.
For the same reason, readline shortcuts in the gdb REPL will not work anymore.
As a remedy, use gdbserver, or lobby for CSI u support in libreadline.
Add sleep to some tests, otherwise they fall (both in CI and locally).
There are two weird failures on FreeBSD remaining, disable them for now

Design and implementation borrows heavily from Kakoune.
In future, we should try to implement more of the kitty progressive
enhancements.
Closes#10359
Unless the editor changed to a different file for some reason.
Note that the Kakoune integration uses -always to export the cursor even if
the user temporarily suppressed hooks - possibly a "fish_indent" hook.
Fish functions are great for configuring fish but they don't integrate
seamlessly with the rest of the system. For tasks that can run outside fish,
writing scripts is the natural approach.
To edit my scripts I frequently run
$EDITOR (which my-script)
Would be great to reduce the amount typing for this common case (the names
of editor and scripts are usually short, so that's a lot of typing spent on
the boring part).
Our Alt+o binding opens the file at the cursor in a pager. When the cursor
is in command position, it doesn't do anything (unless the command is actually
a valid file path). Let's make it open the resolved file path in an editor.
In future, we should teach this binding to delegate to "funced" upon seeing
a function instead of a script. I didn't do it yet because funced prints
messages, so it will mess with the commandline rendering if used from
a binding. (The fact that funced encourages overwriting functions that
ship with fish is worrysome. Also I'm not sure why funced doesn't open the
function's source file directly (if not sourced from stdin). Persisting the
function should probably be the default.)
Alternative approach: I think other shells expand "=my-script" to
"/path/to/my-script". That is certainly an option -- if we do that we'd want
to teach fish to complete command names after "=". Since I don't remember
scenarios where I care about the full path of a script beyond opening it in
my editor, I didn't look further into this.
Closes#10266
If I alias "e" to "emacsclient" it will probably accept the same options.
Let's dereference the alias so we can detect support for passing the cursor
position in more cases.
This does not solve the problem for recursive cases (e.g. alias of another
alias). If we want to handle that we would need cycle detection.
edit_command_buffer uses the "norm" command for moving the cursor to a column
with the "|" primitive. The problem is that the user can remap "|". Fix this
by using the "norm!" variant which ignores user mappings (see ":h norm").
Closes#8971
micro only parses the [FILE]:LINE:COL syntax
if the parsecursor option is enabed
in the meanwhile, the +LINE:COL syntax is unambiguous and always valid
*Problem:*
edit_command_buffer uses `cat` to return the modified content.
If a person has an alias for `cat` to a different command such `bat`** the editing will not be useful anymore since bat decorates the text with frames, line counts, etc
*Solution*
Appending command to cat, fish will ignore the alias and execute the real command according to this https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/command.html

Fixes#6138
Naturally this does not work for many other editors/aliases,
but it's still nice that we can make it work for some common
editors without requiring any configuration.
Of course this approach is not terribly flexible; but it's
alwyas possible to just wrap edit_command_buffer and set an
EDITOR that knows about the cursor position. It doesn't
feel important enough to add a configuration option.
This implements a standard function and bindings for editing the command
line in an external editor. This feature has been requested multiple
times in the past year with various solutions cut and pasted into those
issues. This change combines the best aspects of those solutions.
Fixes#1215
