Very often we need to work with tables (say extracted from unstructured data or some
kind of final report, timeseries, and the like).
It's inevitable we will be having columns that we can't know beforehand what their names
will be, or how many.
Also, we may end up with certain cells having values we may want to remove as we explore.
Here, `update cells` fundamentally goes over every cell in the table coming in and updates
the cell's contents with the output of the block passed. Basic example here:
```
> [
[ ty1, t2, ty];
[ 1, a, $nothing]
[(wrap), (0..<10), 1Mb]
[ 1s, ({}), 1000000]
[ $true, $false, ([[]])]
] | update cells { describe }
───┬───────────────────────┬───────────────────────────┬──────────
# │ ty1 │ t2 │ ty
───┼───────────────────────┼───────────────────────────┼──────────
0 │ integer │ string │ nothing
1 │ row Column(table of ) │ range[[integer, integer)] │ filesize
2 │ string │ nothing │ integer
3 │ boolean │ boolean │ table of
───┴───────────────────────┴───────────────────────────┴──────────
```
and another one (in the examples) for cases, say we have a timeseries table generated and
we want to remove the zeros and have empty strings and save it out to something like CSV.
```
> [
[2021-04-16, 2021-06-10, 2021-09-18, 2021-10-15, 2021-11-16, 2021-11-17, 2021-11-18];
[ 37, 0, 0, 0, 37, 0, 0]
] | update cells {|value| i
if ($value | into int) == 0 {
""
} {
$value
}
}
───┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────

* Support completion when cursor inside an argument
Bash supports completion even when cursor is in an argument, this is very useful for some fixup after the initial completion.
Let add this feature as well.

* Add test for when cursor inside an argument
To support test this case, let's also take the position into account.

* Change path join signature
* Appending now works without flag
* Column path operation is behind a -c flag
* Move column path arg retrieval to a function
Also improves errors
* Fix path join tests
* Propagate column path changes to all path commands
* Update path command examples with columns paths
* Modernize path command examples by removing "echo"
* Improve structured path error message
* Fix typo
It is implemented as a preliminary check when parsing a call and relies
on a fact that a token that successfully parses as a range is unlikely
to be a valid path or command name.
