248200520e functions/help: Prefer xdg-open/cygstart over open
Some systems like Debian have "open" as a symlink to "openvt" (for... historical
reasons).

See #5756.

4c61691377 functions/help: Don't eval to check for lynx
This called `eval $fish_browser --version` to figure out if it is
lynx.

That's really not worth it just to support edge-cases using a rather
unusual browser, to work around a bug in it.

Instead we just see if the browser name starts with "lynx", which
should work in 99.9% of cases.

121d61cf31 Revert "help: Use variable-as-command instead of eval"
We do a bunch of escaping before to make `eval` work, and that needs to be removed as well or fragment-urls don't work.

This reverts commit e9568069a7.

99ecaec175 Use system web browser under WSL
Launch `cmd.exe /c "start URL"` under WSL for both `fish_config` and
`help`. This works around #4299 but does not address the underlying
issue (#1132).

80b658e247 Work around OS X issue with dropped #fragment in launched URLs
The previous hack used to work around an OS X issue/bug where launching
a URL with a #fragment appended would drop the fragment by using
`osascript` does not seem to work any more. Append the section name as a
query string (in addition to, not instead of #section) and then use some
basic javascript appended to the user doc HTML template to parse that
and jump to the correct section (if the section was dropped).

Closes #4480

338311af1e Install custom LSS script to /usr/local/share/fish on make install
Decided to move doc_src/fish.lss to share/lynx.lss, which just makes
more sense all around. Accordingly, now using {$__fish_datadir} instead
of {$__fish_help_dir} in help.fish.

Makefile now installs the custom lss on make install

8b858f2fcc Use a custom Lynx style sheet (LSS file) to work around Lynx bug
Lynx uses a very naïve method of applying styles to HTML elements by
hashing the element type and the class name to generate a map of
hash:style. After the hash is calculated, Lynx does not go back and
check whether or not the actual string values match the LSS properties.

See the following links on the Links mailing list:
 * http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lynx-dev/2015-12/msg00037.html
 * http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lynx-dev/2015-12/msg00039.html

This patch copies the default Lynx stylesheet but removes highlighting
and other styles that would result in unreadable text (due to not enough
contrast with the background color), and if the `help` builtin detects
that the best web browser to use is Lynx, it instructs it to use this
modified stylesheet.

2b425ad221 Don't use xdg-open if running in terminal mode (i.e. no Xorg)
If the $DISPLAY environment variable is not set, xdg-open should not be
used to load the web browser. Just because it is installed does not mean
that the user exclusively runs in an X session.

Needed for Lynx detection to work around #4170

11a60c8374 reformat all fish scripts
I hate doing this but I am tired of touching a fish script as part of
some change and having `make style` radically change it. Which makes
editing fish scripts more painful than it needs to be. It is time to do
a wholesale reformatting of these scripts to conform to the documented
style as implemented by the `fish_indent` program.

89206d8654 Fix user browser for help in Cygwin
Fixes the invocation of a user-specified browser by the `help` command on Cygwin.

- Use `cygstart` to launch the browser with escaped quotes to avoid problems with spaces in the path to the browser, (e.g. Program Files).
- Use `cygpath` to convert the base help dir to a Windows path before constructing the fie URL to pass to the browser.

5fca92994f help.fish: Fix the sed expression to find anchors with id or name
Previously the expression only searched for anchors with a name
attribute, but doxygen 1.7.1 is producing anchors with the id attribute
instead. The sed expression allows both cases for compatibility.

I also used single quotes for the sed expression to avoid escaping
double quotes.
