Consider a group of short options, like -xzPARAM, where x and z are options and z takes an argument.
This commit enables completion of the argument to the last option (z), both within the same
token (-xzP) or in the next one (-xz P).
complete -C'-xz' will complete only parameters to z.
complete -C'-xz ' will complete only parameters to z if z requires a parameter
otherwise, it will also complete non-option parameters
To do so this implements a heuristic to differentiate such strings from single long options. To
detect whether our token contains some short options, we only require the first character after the
dash (here x) to be an option. Previously, all characters had to be short options. The last option
in our example is z. Everything after the last option is assumed to be a parameter to the last
option.
Assume there is also a single long option -x-foo, then complete -C'-x' will suggest both -x-foo and
-xy. However, when the single option x requires an argument, this will not suggest -x-foo.
However, I assume this will almost never happen in practise since completions very rarely mix
short and single long options.

This stops reading argument names after another option appears. It does not break any previous uses and in fact fixes uses like
```fish
function foo --argument-names bar --description baz
```
* `function` command handles options after argument names (Fixes#6186)
* Removed unneccesary test
I got tired of seeing ' ... ok (0 sec)' so now with GNU date/gdate
installed there is millisecond output shown. One can get rough
nanoseconds from gdate.
This sequence can be generatd by control-spacebar. Allow it to be bound
properly.
To do this we must be sure that we never round-trip the key sequence
through a C string.
Meaning empty variables, command substitutions that don't print
anything.
A switch without an argument
```fish
switch
case ...
end
```
is still a syntax error, and more than one argument is still a runtime
error.
The none-argument matches either an empty-string `case ''` or a
catch-all `case '*'`.
Fixes#5677.
Fixes#4943.
This test uses universal variables, and so it can fail when run
multiple times.
It might be a good idea to do this in general, but for now let's just
try it here.
Previously when propagating explicitly separated output, we would early-out
if the buffer was empty, where empty meant contains no characters. However
it may contain one or more empty strings, in which case we should propagate
those strings.
Remove this footgun "empty" function and handle this properly.
Fixes#5987
I tested this manually (`littlecheck.py -s fish=fish tests/checks/eval.fish`) from the base directory, which means I got
"tests/checks/eval", while the real test gets "checks/eval".
I then reran `make test_fishscript`, but that didn't pull in the
updated test - we should really handle that better.
I'm gonna add more tests to this and I don't want to touch the old stuff.
Notice that this needs to have the output of the complete_directories
test adjusted because this one now runs later.
That's something we should take into account in future.
history now often writes to the history file asynchronously, but the history
test expects to find the text in the file immediately after running the
command. Hack a bit in history to make this test more reliable.
