Allow operator in constants (#10212)

This pr fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10200

# Description

Allow unary and binary operators in constants, e.g.

```bash
const a = 1 + 2
const b = [0, 1, 2, 3] ++ [4]
```

# User-Facing Changes

Now constants can contain operators.

# Tests + Formatting

- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`

# After Submitting

None
