Enforce call stack depth limit for all calls (#11729)
# Description Previously, only direcly-recursive calls were checked for recursion depth. But most recursive calls in nushell are mutually recursive since expressions like `for`, `where`, `try` and `do` all execute a separte block. ```nushell def f [] { do { f } } ``` Calling `f` would crash nushell with a stack overflow. I think the only general way to prevent such a stack overflow is to enforce a maximum call stack depth instead of only disallowing directly recursive calls. This commit also moves that logic into `eval_call()` instead of `eval_block()` because the recursion limit is tracked in the `Stack`, but not all blocks are evaluated in a new stack. Incrementing the recursion depth of the caller's stack would permanently increment that for all future calls. Fixes #11667 # User-Facing Changes Any function call can now fail with `recursion_limit_reached` instead of just directly recursive calls. Mutually-recursive calls no longer crash nushell. # After Submitting <!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date. -->
