Add support for current version of Fish subshell with any prompt

Description

The ticket https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3232 introduced a way to show the prompt with the fish subshell. However, it does include its own version of the prompt, which causes two prompts to be printed for the current version of Fish. Additionally, Fish supports right-justified prompt as well, which conflicts with mc causing the prompt to completely disappear when panels are shown.

This change removes the additional prompt introduced by https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3232. As a workaround, it also clears any right-justified portion of the prompt in case it is present. This obviously might remove a portion of the prompt, but at least it makes the left-justified part visible.

I was going to write a patch for this now, cloned the repo, run `git log', and found out it was already fixed for the next release! Good work!

BTW, the comments below "case SHELL_FISH:" about a fancy prompt and a TODO are irrelevant now, according to my tests, and should be removed too!
