Remove scripts directory in favor functions/ or root/
Remove scripts directory in favor of using the functions/ or root
for sharing scripts. Using a scripts directory does not solve the
main problem of sharing scripts with the same name, so this addition
was deemed of little value. In the future, a more robust way to avoid
name collisions when sharing scripts would be nice to have, but at
the moment having a scripts directory is not solving this problem
but just adding clutter to the configuration.

Closes #105.

fisher-config(7) -- Fisherman Configuration
===========================================
## SYNOPSIS
This document describes how to use Fisherman configuration variables.
## DESCRIPTION
Your fish user configuration, usually located in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fish/config.fish` is updated after installing Fisherman to add the global variables `$fisher_home` and `$fisher_config`.
Using the following variables, you can customize the locations of the cache, index URL, fishfile, create command aliases, etc.
## VARIABLES
* `$fisher_home`:
The home directory. If you installed Fisherman using the recommended method `curl -sL install.fisherman.sh | fish`, the location will be `$XDG_DATA_HOME/fisherman`. If you clone Fisherman and run `make` yourself, `$fisher_home` will the current working directory.
* `$fisher_config`:
The user configuration directory. This is default location of your user *fishfile*, Fisherman *key_bindings.fish* file and the *cache*, *functions*, *completions* and *conf.d* directories. `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fisherman` by default.
* `$fisher_file`:
This file keeps a list of what plugins you have installed and are currently enabled. `$fisher_config/fishfile` by default. See `fisher help fishfile` for details.
* `$fisher_cache`:
The cache directory. Plugins are downloaded first here and installed to `$fisher_config/functions` afterwards. The cache is `$fisher_config/cache` by default.
* `$fisher_index`:
The URL to the index database. To use a different index set this to a file or URL. Redirect URLs are currently not supported due to security and performance concerns. The underlying request and fetch mechanism is based in `curl(1)`.
* `$fisher_alias command=alias[,...] [command2=alias[,...]]`:
Use this variable to define custom aliases for fisher commands. See `Examples` below.
## EXAMPLES
* Create aliases for fisher `install` to *i*, *in* and *inst*; and for fisher `update` to *up*.
```
set fisher_alias install=i,in,inst update=up
```
