I agree: shells/fish itself should follow upstream which has switched to
rust.
However, since this is a leaf port, we could reimport the old C++-based
fish simply as shells/fish3 (there's perhaps a bit of pain for removing
the conflict between the two versions if we want to do that).
My understanding is most of the pain of librsvg comes from it being an
important dependency for graphics-based programs, so it has to be
supported in the same port.
