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.
Based on the conclusion in discussion #3248, this PR fix "OEM" and "Default" encoding in powershell.
1. OEM -- We need an internal fix because .Net Core has no "OEM" encoding.
The fix gives the following PowerShell Core behavior on "OEM" encoding:
- on Windows - as Windows PowerShell based on GetOEMCP() and legacy encodings (System.Text.Encoding.CodePages)
- on Unix - the same as default encoding in PowerShell Core
2. Default -- We need internal fix because CoreFX `Encoding.default` for all platforms is UTF8.
Until we complete the `Encoding RFC` we should restore behavior as in Windows PowerShell.
The fix gives the following PowerShell Core behavior on "Default" encoding:
- on Windows - as Windows PowerShell based on GetACP() and legacy encodings (System.Text.Encoding.CodePages)
- on Unix - UTF-8 without BOM (We are expecting that the same will be [in CoreFX](https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/10643))
The package 'libpsrpclient' was replaced by 'psrp' in #3271. However, this was missed when moving from project.json to MSBuild. This change makes this update.
- Removed the -TimeoutSec option and modified the expected Error to be consistent across platforms.
- Changed the port of the phony proxy to 9 which is reserved for the Discard Protocol. So even if the system is listening, it's supposed to discard that TCP request (UDP may use it for Wake-on-Lan, but doesn't affect this).
Fix by saving the cursor position, displaying the progress, and restoring the cursor back to the original position so normal formatting (e.g. table output) can continue.
Closes#3453.
* Help was incorrectly returning multiple instances of the same help file if it existed under a culture path and the parent was in the search path as well
* updated test to use generated help file rather than an actual one
* Fixed test to have module in $pshome path and casing of en-US culture

1. Add autoload for test modules
2. Move TestHostCS.psm1 to 'test\tools\Modules\' folder
3. Remove explicit load TestHostCS.psm1 from test files
- FullCLR build is disabled in this change.
- FullCLR build related functionalities in `build.psm1` and `AppVeyor.psm1` are disabled. They are not cleaned up from `build.psm1` and `AppVeyor.psm1` yet. We need to adopt .NET Core 2.0 to verify the portable module concept, and if that works well, we will remove the Windows PowerShell source code and clean up our scripts.
- `dnxcore50` and `portable-net5+win8` target framework monikers are removed.
- Dependency on `Microsoft.NETCore.Portable.Compatibility` is removed. It's not necessary, but it may come back when we work on supporting the `portable module`. Its necessity can be reviewed at that time.
- I didn't spend the time to try building powershell in Visual Studio 2017. We should have a separate issue for that. It's tracked by #3400
The `TypeCatalogParser` project is replaced by a MSBuild target to gather the dependency information.
Due to .NET Core SDK issue [#1021](https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/1021), our meta-package project `Microsoft.PowerShell.SDK` starts to generate an empty assembly during the build and that results in an empty assembly `Microsoft.PowerShell.SDK.dll` appear in `publish` folder and in `.deps.json` file. We cannot simply remove the assembly because it's now part of the TPA, and removing it will cause powershell to crash at startup. We have to live with this empty assembly until that .NET Core SDK issue is fixed. It's tracked by #3401.
