Jordan Harband 35d6e5a000 [Fix] nvm.sh: detect NVM_DIR without $0/$_; fall back to the default install location instead of the working directory
When `nvm.sh` is sourced with `NVM_DIR` unset,
it derived `NVM_DIR` from the sourced file in bash
(via `BASH_SOURCE`),
and otherwise from `dirname "${_:-$0}"`.
In shells that do not set `BASH_SOURCE`
(dash, sh, ksh, and zsh under `emulate sh` or without `FUNCTION_ARGZERO`),
`$0` is the shell's or the calling script's name and `$_` is whatever was inherited,
so `NVM_DIR` became an unrelated directory:
for `sh -c '. ~/.nvm/nvm.sh'`,
as run by `system(3)` or `popen(3)`,
that is the working directory,
whose `alias/default` and `versions/` nvm then used,
and from which `nvm cache clear` and friends would operate.

Detection now uses only reliable sources:
`BASH_SOURCE` in bash,
`${(%):-%x}` in zsh
(which names the sourced file regardless of options),
and `${.sh.file}` in ksh93
(probed in a subshell first, since other shells with `KSH_VERSION` reject the syntax)
A detected source that is not a regular file
(eg, `/dev/fd/63` from `. <(…)`)
is ignored.
Otherwise, nvm uses the default install location that `install.sh` uses
(`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvm`, else `~/.nvm`)
when it contains `nvm.sh`, and if not,
it prints an error asking for `NVM_DIR` to be set and returns 1,
instead of guessing.
Setups that export `NVM_DIR` before sourcing `nvm.sh`,
as `install.sh` and the README do, are unaffected
