Reorders and updates the callable alias examples.
- Start with examples of valid return types first, then show uses for
different arguments
- Add example of using stdin (documents behavior from #5233)

### Motivation
* We have no recommended way to force subprocess command be
(un)threadable
* #4214
* #2119
* #5003
* It's interesting opportunity to have a way to modify specs and CP
using `SpecModifierAlias`.
### Before
```xsh
!(ssh host -T "echo 1")
# output='' # EXPECTED: 1
__xonsh__.commands_cache.threadable_predictors['ssh'] = lambda *a, **kw: True
!(ssh host -T "echo 1")
```
### After
```xsh
xthread
# Mark command as threadable.
!(xthread ssh host -T "echo 1")
# output='1'
```
Closes:
* Closes#4214
* Closes#2119
* Partially closes#5003
Implementation of `SpecModifierAlias` will help in:
* #2618
JFYI #5413

Closes#3394
### Motivation
After reading [the history of threading and
operators](https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/5444) I realized that
this was intended, to make the `!()` operator non-blocking. So let's
write about this in tutorial.
### Next steps
In the future we need to solve these points:
* Confusion around `.output` and `.out`.
* Show good cases where non-blocking is doing perfect work to people. Or
remove the non-blocking functionality [to remove
threading](https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/discussions/4710).

### Motivation
* To have an ability to manage the output format added ``$XONSH_SUBPROC_OUTPUT_FORMAT`` to switch the way to return the output lines. Default ``stream_lines`` to return text. Alternative ``list_lines`` to return the list of lines. Also supported custom lambda function.
* Additionally the [proposal to change default behavior](https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/pull/5377#discussion_r1587627131) for a single line case.
* Closes#3924 as soft solution.
### Before
```xsh
mkdir -p /tmp/tst && cd /tmp/tst && touch 1 2 3
$(ls)
# '1\n2\n3\n'
id $(whoami)
# id: ‘pc\n’: no such user: Invalid argument
du $(ls)
# du: cannot access '1'$'\n''2'$'\n''3'$'\n': No such file or directory
ls $(fzf)
# ls: cannot access 'FUNDING.yml'$'\n': No such file or directory
```
### After
```xsh
mkdir -p /tmp/tst && cd /tmp/tst && touch 1 2 3
$XONSH_SUBPROC_OUTPUT_FORMAT = 'list_lines'
$(ls)
# ['1', '2', '3']
[f for f in $(ls)]
# ['1', '2', '3']
id $(whoami)
# uid=501(user) gid=20(staff)
du $(ls)
# 0 1
# 0 2
# 0 3
ls $(fzf)
# FUNDING.yml
# etc
mkdir -p /tmp/@($(whoami))/dir
cat /etc/passwd | grep $(whoami)
```
### Notes
* It will be good to improve parser for cases like `mkdir -p /tmp/$(whoami)/dir`. PR is welcome!
* I named the default mode as `stream_lines` (instead of just `stream` or `raw`) because in fact we transform raw output into stream of lines and possibly reduce the length of output ([replacing `\r\n` to `\n`](c3a12b2a9c/xonsh/procs/pipelines.py (L380-L383))). May be some day we need to add raw "stream" output format.
* Now anybody can implement bash `IFS` behavior in [bashisms](https://github.com/xonsh/xontrib-bashisms).

* feat: add support for f-glob strings
Move xonsh_pathsearch() into the BaseParser class because it needs to use self._set_error()
Parametrize 6 backtick tests in test_parser.py into test_backtick() (and add cases for f-glob strings)
* add news
* docs: update tutorial
* fix news file
* Added reference to ``PROMPT_FIELDS`` section in ``time_format`` definition
* Forgot the news item, added now
* Generalized reference to PROMPT_FIELDS
* add "disown" internal command
This command will remove jobs from the shell's job table, allowing the command
to continue running after the shell exits. Configuration options are provided
to manage how suspended background jobs are handled after being disowned.
* job-ctrl-disown code style update
* job-ctrl-disown style updates + change arg --cont to --continue
* Trim extra "=" in doc for "disown" cmd
