c2970f9618 Reformat all files
This runs build_tools/style.fish, which runs clang-format on C++, fish_indent on fish and (new) black on python.

If anything is wrong with the formatting, we should fix the tools, but automated formatting is worth it.

864bb1f7a6 Add string-replace-fewer-backslashes feature
This disables an extra round of escaping in the `string replace -r`
replacement string.

Currently, to add a backslash to an a or b (to "escape" it):

    string replace -ra '([ab])' '\\\\\\\$1' a

7 backslashes!

This removes one of the layers, so now 3 or 4 works (each one escaped
for the single-quotes, so pcre receives two, which it reads as one literal):

    string replace -ra '([ab])' '\\\\$1' a

This is backwards-incompatible as replacement strings will change
meaning, so we put it behind a feature flag.

The name is kinda crappy, though.

Fixes #5474.

8a96f283ba Allow setting feature flags on the command line
This introduces a new command line option --features which can be used for
enabling or disabling features for a particular fish session.

Examples:
  fish --features stderr-nocaret
  fish --features 3.0,no-stderr-nocaret
  fish --features all

Note that the feature set cannot be changed in an existing session.

14f766b66d Add support for feature flags
This introduces a new type features_t that exposes feature flags. The intent
is to allow a deprecation/incremental adoption path. This is not a general
purpose configuration mechanism, but instead allows for compatibility during
the transition as features are added/removed.

Each feature has a user-presentable short name and a short description. Their
values are tracked in a struct features_t.

We start with one feature stderr_nocaret, but it's not hooked up yet.
