* Minor changes
* Add some more tests
* Add more tab completion tests

Using powershell.exe to execute a PowerShell script using -File currently provides no way to pass $true/$false as parameter values. Current behavior is that -File accumulates passed parameters as strings only.
Fix is to special case this based on discussion with PS-Committee to support $true/$false as parsed values to parameters. Switch values is also supported as currently documented syntax doesn't work.
This change is only for Windows and appends the Windows PowerShell PSModulePath on startup via a default profile. Depending on the data/feedback we get, we can decide what to do (opt-in vs opt-out) as we get closer to a release candidate.
* ClrVersion property of $PSVersionTable is not useful with CoreCLR and end users should not be using it
that value to determine compatibility. Recommendation from dotnet team is to remove that property.
* Removed internal members used for CLRVersion
* removed CLRVersion from FullCLR build as well
* added additional information to run `start-psbootstrap -buildnative` if cmake is not found
Previously powershell.exe treated unknown arguments as a command line to execute. To align with POSIX so that things like shebang scripts work correctly, we are changing powershell.exe so that it treats unknown arguments (aka positional argument) as a file. This means that `powershell foo` will now attempt to use `foo` as a PowerShell script whereas previously `foo` would be treated as a command to execute. This doesn't affect existing usage of either -File nor -Command. Fixed tests that didn't explicitly use -Command parameter.
On Unix, it is a convention for shells to accept `-i` for an interactive shell and many
tools expect this behavior (`script` for example, and when setting powershell as the
default shell) and calls the shell with the `-i` switch. This change is breaking in
that `-i` previously could be used as short hand to match `-inputformat` which now will
need to be `-in`.
There are cases like using PowerShell via Puppet where the account being
used does not have a home directory. Updated PowerShell to use a process
specific temporary directory if HOME, CONFIG, CACHE, and DATA directories
are not available. Temporary directory is removed when last runspace
is disposed.
* corrected use of PSModulePath casing to be consistent with Windows PowerShell
addresses #3227
* addressing review feedback
make "PSModulePath" into const
fixed some test workarounds due to failures for external reasons that wasn't meant to be checked in

XDG profile directory creation can fail for accounts that do not have home directories.
The module analysis was trying to persist it's cache in an XDG profile directory.
The cache is less critical than it once was, so it's reasonable to not cache if there is no good place to do so.
Fixes#3011
* Implement -version parameter in console host (address part of https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/1084)
This does not support providing a specific version to run, but
like most other *nix commands, -version will now return the version
of the PowerShell Engine. 'powershell' is prepended to the output to
match other *nix commands. We are using gitcommitid which includes more
info about the build.
* Fix GetType() bad pattern and related issues in tests
$var.GetType() can raise an exception in tests so we should check $var
before make the call. A large part of the tests does not make this
check.
I start with searching ".GetType()" but discovered many related issues
in tests (reduntant and unneeded tests, "throw" bad pattens, bugs,
formattings (sorry!) and so on) - I had to fix them too.
* Fix after code review
* Second wave of migration GetType() -> BeOfType
Removed 'GetType().Name' patterns.
* Improve console cmdlets tests
Main improvements refer to tests of the Write-Host cmdlet.
Original tests:
1. Slow because run external processes
2. Don't test colors and -NoNewLine in fact.
1. The original tests is preserved (deleted one as redundant) but marked
by 'Slow' tag. They is preserved because they actually check the output
on the work, not a test console.
2. Add negative color tests. (Code cover grow!)
3. Add tests based on TestHostCS. This test host has been refined so we
can see colors and a new line in output.
4. Add minor fixes for test modules loads.
Also I add support for Information stream. I originally planned to use
it but not actually used. However, I have left this as a useful addition
for future tests.
I wonder that a Write-Host console output is duplicated in Information
Stream - Is it by design? I left a debug print on this matter in the
test code.
* Fix after code review
* Corrections after code review
Suppress import-module warnings
Rename Describes
Add "-Object" test
Add Stream.Information tests with TestHostCS
* Add checks for Streams.Information and add comments
Type completion would behave strangely when there were multiple aliases for a given type (currently only possible with type accelerators).
The fix is to only select the accelerator that matches what the user typed.
Closes#2295
When running on systems that do not support a virtual terminal,
the tests was incorrectly assuming escape sequences were removed.
The fix is to expect different results depending on whether or not
the host supports virtual terminal mode.
* Wire up proper ConsoleHostRawUserInterface.LengthInBufferCells for Unix
Ref https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/2502
This allows for Unix console host to properly calculate display width for
strings containing escape sequences (e.g. ANSI color), rather than
falling back to naive string.Length.
* Add basic tests for host LengthInBufferCells calculation
