55ebf4430f Make literal "{}" expand to itself
This caused major annoyances with e.g. `find -exec`, and it's utterly
useless - "{}" expands to nothing, so why have it at all?

Fixes #1109.

7b92217273 docs: improve set -Ux language and example
By far the most common problem with universal variables being overridden
by global variables is other values being imported from the environment;
the `set -q; or set -gx` is much more of an edge case.

f2246dfb34 reduce number of Unicode private-use characters
This narrows the range of Unicode codepoints fish reserves for its own
use from U+E000 thru U+F8FE (6399 codepoints) to U+F600 thru U+F73F (320
codepoints). This is still not ideal since fish shouldn't be using any
Unicode private-use codepoints but it's a step in the right direction.

This partially addresses issue #2684.

cec1dc2095 doc: faq: avoid overwriting config.fish.
In FAQ:

> I'm seeing weird output before each prompt when using screen. What's wrong?

The command provided is

    echo 'function fish_title;end' > ~/.config/fish/config.fish

Using `>` will overwrite current config.fish.

We should use `>>` instead.

509d152e54 Tutorial auto colouring, Man page and Make fixes
Completely fixes #1557 and the underlying Doxygen changes that caused
it. Should make fish docs simpler and more robust, more consistent and
generally prettier.

todo:
- trap unmarked text as arguments in context
- test & fix sed portability - see in particular. (so far tested on BSD
(Mac) and GNU sed).
- test Makefile changes
- last round of aesthetic changes and getting that ascii fish in there…
