rootiest 084e6fb9ca refactor(functions): standardize documentation, metadata, and wrappers
- Add comprehensive `--description` flags to all fish functions for better `help` and `functions` output.
- Introduce and correct `--wraps` flags to ensure proper completions for aliased commands (e.g., `top` wrapping `btop`, `zellij`, `upgrade` wrapping `paru`).
- Prepend descriptive comments before function definitions for better source readability.
- Add standard copyright and SPDX license identifiers to shell scripts.
- Enhance script robustness by ensuring consistent terminal checks (Kitty, WezTerm) and graceful fallbacks in window/tab spawning functions (`spwin`, `tab`).
- Implement graceful fallbacks to basic core utilities when preferred modern alternatives are missing (e.g., `top` falling back to system `top` if `btop` is missing, `view` falling back to `less` or `cat` if `nvim` is unavailable).
- Improve overall code consistency across the `functions/` directory.

# Function to run a command in the background, detached from the terminal.
# This prevents the command from being terminated when the terminal is closed.
# All output (stdout and stderr) is discarded.
#
# Usage:
# bkg <command> [arguments...]
#
# Example:
# bkg firefox
# bkg code .
#
# Execute bkg
function bkg --description 'Execute bkg'
# Check if a command was provided as an argument.
if test -z "$argv[1]"
echo "Usage: bkg <command> [arguments...]"
return 1
end
# Run the command using nohup to make it immune to hangups (like closing the terminal).
# Redirect both stdout and stderr to /dev/null to discard all output.
# The final ampersand (&) sends the entire process to the background.
nohup $argv &>/dev/null &
