# Description
This PR adds a directory to the `$nu` constant that shows where the
system level autoload directory is located at. This folder is modifiable
at compile time with environment variables.
```rust
// Create a system level directory for nushell scripts, modules, completions, etc
// that can be changed by setting the NU_VENDOR_AUTOLOAD_DIR env var on any platform
// before nushell is compiled OR if NU_VENDOR_AUTOLOAD_DIR is not set for non-windows
// systems, the PREFIX env var can be set before compile and used as PREFIX/nushell/vendor/autoload
// pseudo code
// if env var NU_VENDOR_AUTOLOAD_DIR is set, in any platform, use it
// if not, if windows, use ALLUSERPROFILE\nushell\vendor\autoload
// if not, if non-windows, if env var PREFIX is set, use PREFIX/share/nushell/vendor/autoload
// if not, use the default /usr/share/nushell/vendor/autoload
```
### Windows default
```nushell
❯ $nu.vendor-autoload-dir
C:\ProgramData\nushell\vendor\autoload
```
### Non-Windows default
```nushell
❯ $nu.vendor-autoload-dir
/usr/local/share/nushell/vendor/autoload
```
### Non-Windows with PREFIX set
```nushell
❯ PREFIX=/usr/bob cargo r
❯ $nu.vendor-autoload-dir
/usr/bob/share/nushell/vendor/autoload
```
### Non-Windows with NU_VENDOR_AUTOLOAD_DIR set
```nushell
❯ NU_VENDOR_AUTOLOAD_DIR=/some/other/path/nushell/stuff cargo r
❯ $nu.vendor-autoload-dir
/some/other/path/nushell/stuff
```
> [!IMPORTANT]
To be clear, this PR does not do the auto-loading, it just sets up the
folder to support that functionality that can be added in a later PR.
The PR also does not create the folder defined. It's just setting the
$nu constant.

# Description
This PR is an attempt to add a standard location for people to put
completions in. I saw this topic come up again recently and IIRC we
decided to create a standard location. I used the dirs-next crate to
dictate where these locations are. I know some people won't like that
but at least this gets the ball rolling in a direction that has a
standard directory.
This is what the default NU_LIB_DIRS looks like now in the
default_env.nu. It should also be like this when starting nushell with
`nu -n`
```nushell
$env.NU_LIB_DIRS = [
($nu.default-config-dir | path join 'scripts') # add <nushell-config-dir>/scripts
($nu.data-dir | path join 'completions') # default home for nushell completions
]
```
I also added these default folders to the `$nu` variable so now there is
`$nu.data-path` and `$nu.cache-path`.
## Data Dir Default
While I was in there, I also decided to add a cache dir
## Cache Dir Default
### This is what the default looks like in Ubuntu.
### This is what it looks like with XDG_CACHE_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME
overridden
```nushell
XDG_DATA_HOME=/tmp/data_home XDG_CACHE_HOME=/tmp/cache_home cargo r
```
### This is what the defaults look like in Windows (username scrubbed to
protect the innocent)
How my NU_LIB_DIRS is set in the images above
```nushell
$env.NU_LIB_DIRS = [
($nu.default-config-dir | path join 'scripts') # add <nushell-config-dir>/scripts
'/Users/fdncred/src/nu_scripts'
($nu.config-path | path dirname)
($nu.data-dir | path join 'completions') # default home for nushell completions
]
```
Let the debate begin.

There is a completion issue on previous version, I think @amtoine have
reproduced it before. But currently I can't reproduce it on latest main.
To avoid such regression, I added some tests for completion.

As discussed in https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12749, we no
longer need to call `std::env::set_current_dir()` to sync `$env.PWD`
with the actual working directory. This PR removes the call from
`EngineState::merge_env()`.
# Description
Refactors the code in `nu-cli`, `main.rs`, `run.rs`, and few others.
Namely, I added `EngineState::generate_nu_constant` function to
eliminate some duplicate code. Otherwise, I changed a bunch of areas to
return errors instead of calling `std::process::exit`.
# User-Facing Changes
Should be none.
# Description
Fixes#12813 where a panic occurs when syntax highlighting `not`. Also
fixes#12814 where syntax highlighting for `not` no longer works.
# User-Facing Changes
Bug fix.
