Improve wrong flag help (#16427)

# Description

Currently, when Nushell encounters an unknown flag, it prints all
options in the help string. This is pretty verbose and uses the
`formatted_flags` signature method, which isn't used anywhere else. This
commit refactors the parser to use `did_you_mean` instead, which only
suggest one closest option or sends the user to `help` if nothing close
is found.


# User-Facing Changes (Bug fixes and other changes)

## Improved error messages for misspelled flags

Previously, the help text for a missing flag would list all of them,
which could get verbose on a single line:

```nushell
~> ls --full-path
Error: nu::parser::unknown_flag

  × The `ls` command doesn't have flag `full-path`.
   ╭─[entry #8:1:4]
 1 │ ls --full-path
   ·    ─────┬─────
   ·         ╰── unknown flag
   ╰────
  help: Available flags: --help(-h), --all(-a), --long(-l), --short-names(-s), --full-paths(-f), --du(-d), --directory(-D), --mime-type(-m), --threads(-t). Use
        `--help` for more information.
```

The new error message only suggests the closest flag:

```nushell
> ls --full-path
Error: nu::parser::unknown_flag

  × The `ls` command doesn't have flag `full-path`.
   ╭─[entry #23:1:4]
 1 │ ls --full-path
   ·    ─────┬─────
   ·         ╰── unknown flag
   ╰────
  help: Did you mean: `--full-paths`?
```
