commands: rename 'fixer' to 'formatter', to be less misleading The word "fixer" sounds too much as if the command would be able to fix mistakes or correct errors. Especially when seen next to "linter", it sounds as if one does a syntax check and the other fixes the found mistakes. (Although the command might in theory be used for this, it is not its intended purpose.)
