Rewrite run_external.rs (#12921)
This PR is a complete rewrite of `run_external.rs`. The main goal of the
rewrite is improving readability, but it also fixes some bugs related to
argument handling and the PATH variable (fixes
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/6011).

I'll discuss some technical details to make reviewing easier.

## Argument handling

Quoting arguments for external commands is hard. Like, *really* hard.
We've had more than a dozen issues and PRs dedicated to quoting
arguments (see Appendix) but the current implementation is still buggy.

Here's a demonstration of the buggy behavior:

```nu
let foo = "'bar'"
^touch $foo            # This creates a file named `bar`, but it should be `'bar'`
^touch ...[ "'bar'" ]  # Same
```

I'll describe how this PR deals with argument handling.

First, we'll introduce the concept of **bare strings**. Bare strings are
**string literals** that are either **unquoted** or **quoted by
backticks** [^1]. Strings within a list literal are NOT considered bare
strings, even if they are unquoted or quoted by backticks.

When a bare string is used as an argument to external process, we need
to perform tilde-expansion, glob-expansion, and inner-quotes-removal, in
that order. "Inner-quotes-removal" means transforming from
`--option="value"` into `--option=value`.

## `.bat` files and CMD built-ins

On Windows, `.bat` files and `.cmd` files are considered executable, but
they need `CMD.exe` as the interpreter. The Rust standard library
supports running `.bat` files directly and will spawn `CMD.exe` under
the hood (see
[documentation](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/process/index.html#windows-argument-splitting)).
However, other extensions are not supported [^2].

Nushell also supports a selected number of CMD built-ins. The problem
with CMD is that it uses a different set of quoting rules. Correctly
quoting for CMD requires using
[Command::raw_arg()](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/os/windows/process/trait.CommandExt.html#tymethod.raw_arg)
and manually quoting CMD special characters, on top of quoting from the
Nushell side. ~~I decided that this is too complex and chose to reject
special characters in CMD built-ins instead [^3]. Hopefully this will
not affact real-world use cases.~~ I've implemented escaping that works
reasonably well.

## `which-support` feature

The `which` crate is now a hard dependency of `nu-command`, making the
`which-support` feature essentially useless. The `which` crate is
already a hard dependency of `nu-cli`, and we should consider removing
the `which-support` feature entirely.

## Appendix

Here's a list of quoting-related issues and PRs in rough chronological
order.

[^1]: The idea that backtick-quoted strings act like bare strings was
introduced by Kubouch and briefly mentioned in [the language
reference](https://www.nushell.sh/lang-guide/chapters/strings_and_text.html#backtick-quotes).

[^2]: The documentation also said "running .bat scripts in this way may
be removed in the future and so should not be relied upon", which is
another reason to move away from this. But again, quoting for CMD is
hard.

Avoid taking unnecessary ownership of intermediates (#12740)
# Description

Judiciously try to avoid allocations/clone by changing the signature of
functions

- **Don't pass str by value unnecessarily if only read**
- **Don't require a vec in `Sandbox::with_files`**
- **Remove unnecessary string clone**
- **Fixup unnecessary borrow**
- **Use `&str` in shape color instead**
- **Vec -> Slice**
- **Elide string clone**
- **Elide `Path` clone**
- **Take &str to elide clone in tests**

# User-Facing Changes
None

# Tests + Formatting
This touches many tests purely in changing from owned to borrowed/static
data

Tests: clean up unnecessary use of pipeline() (#10170)
As described in Issue #8670, removed `pipeline()` wherever its argument
contained no line breaks.

[#8670](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8670)**

- Removed the `r#"..."#` raw string literal syntax, which is unnecessary
when there are no special characters that need quoting from the tests
that use the `nu!` macro.
- `cwd:` and `pipeline()` has not changed

remove let-env, focus on mutating $env (#9574)
# Description

For years, Nushell has used `let-env` to set a single environment
variable. As our work on scoping continued, we refined what it meant for
a variable to be in scope using `let` but never updated how `let-env`
would work. Instead, `let-env` confusingly created mutations to the
command's copy of `$env`.

So, to help fix the mental model and point people to the right way of
thinking about what changing the environment means, this PR removes
`let-env` to encourage people to think of it as updating the command's
environment variable via mutation.

Before:

```
let-env FOO = "BAR"
```

Now:

```
$env.FOO = "BAR"
```

It's also a good reminder that the environment owned by the command is
in the `$env` variable rather than global like it is in other shells.

# User-Facing Changes

BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE

This completely removes `let-env FOO = "BAR"` so that we can focus on
`$env.FOO = "BAR"`.

Make env-related tests more resilient (#7423)
# Description

Fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/6708

The error message of environment variable not found could change
depending on the `$env` content which can produce random failures on
different systems. This PR hopefully makes the tests more resilient.
