Goes towards implementing #10598, which asks for a spread operator in
lists, in records, and when calling commands (continuation of #11006,
which only implements it in lists)
# Description
This PR is for adding a spread operator that can be used when building
records. Additional functionality can be added later.
Changes:
- Previously, the `Expr::Record` variant held `(Expression, Expression)`
pairs. It now holds instances of an enum `RecordItem` (the name isn't
amazing) that allows either a key-value mapping or a spread operator.
- `...` will be treated as the spread operator when it appears before
`$`, `{`, or `(` inside records (no whitespace allowed in between) (not
implemented yet)
- The error message for duplicate columns now includes the column name
itself, because if two spread records are involved in such an error, you
can't tell which field was duplicated from the spans alone
`...` will still be treated as a normal string outside records, and even
in records, it is not treated as a spread operator when not followed
immediately by a `$`, `{`, or `(`.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will be able to use `...` when building records.
```
> let rec = { x: 1, ...{ a: 2 } }
> $rec
╭───┬───╮
│ x │ 1 │
│ a │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
> { foo: bar, ...$rec, baz: blah }
╭─────┬──────╮
│ foo │ bar │
│ x │ 1 │
│ a │ 2 │
│ baz │ blah │
╰─────┴──────╯
```
If you want to update a field of a record, you'll have to use `merge`
instead:
```
> { ...$rec, x: 5 }
Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice
× Record field or table column used twice: x

# Description
Close: #10278
This pr introduces `o>>`, `e>>`, `o+e>>` to allow redirection to append
to a file.
Examples:
```nushell
echo abc o>> a.txt
echo abc o>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf o+e>> a.txt
```
~~TODO:~~
~~1. currently internal commands with `o+e>` redirect to a variable is
broken: `let x = "a.txt"; echo abc o+e> $x`, not sure when it was
introduced...~~
~~2. redirect stdout and stderr with append mode doesn't supported yet:
`cat asdf o>>a.txt e>>b.ext`~~
~~For these 2 items, I'd like to fix them in different prs.~~
Already done in this pr
# Description
This PR enables a new feature that shows which externals are found in
your path via the syntax highlighter as you type.
This idea could use some improvement where it caches the items in your
path and on some trigger, expires that cache and creates a new on. Right
now, all it does is call the `which` crate on every character you type.
This could be problematic if you have hundreds of paths in your PATH or
if some of your paths in your Path point to extraordinarily slow file
systems. WSL pointing to Windows comes to mind. Either way, I've thrown
it up here for people to try and provide feedback. I think the novelty
of showing what is valid and what isn't is pretty cool. I believe
fish-shell also does this, IIRC.

# Description
Fixes: #10271
Given the following script:
```shell
# test.sh
echo aaaaa
echo bbbbb 1>&2
echo cc
```
This pr makes the following command possible:
```nushell
bash test.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
```
## General idea behind the change:
When nushell redirect stderr message to external file
1. it take stdout of external stream, and pass this stream to next
command, so it won't block next pipeline command from running.
2. relative stderr stream are handled by `save` command
These two streams are handled separately, so we need to delegate a
thread to `save` command, or else we'll have a chance to hang nushell,
we have meet a similar before: #5625.
### One case to consider
What if we're failed to save to an external stream? (Like we don't have
a permission to save to a file)?
In this case nushell will just print a waning message, and don't stop
the following scripts from running.
# User-Facing Changes
## Before
```nushell
❯ bash test2.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
aaaaa
cc

╭───┬───╮

╰───┴───╯
```
BTY, after this pr, the following commands are impossible either, it's
important to make sure that the implementation doesn't introduce too
much costs:
```nushell
❯ echo a e> a.txt e> a.txt
Error: × Can't make stderr redirection twice
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ echo a e> a.txt e> a.txt

╭─[entry #2:1:1]

· ─┬
· ╰── try to remove one

```
# Description
`ShellError::FlagNotFound` had a note that said it may be removable so
this PR removes it instead of updating it to named fields per #10700
I can't see this error being used since it was introduced with #4364. I
can't find why or where it was used before that date, though. There was
a large merge with that PR but I can't penetrate the secrets of git to
find out where its earlier history went.

# Description
Slightly refactors the cell path functions (`insert_data_at_cell_path`,
etc.) for `Value` to fix a few bugs and ensure consistent behavior.
Namely, case (in)sensitivity now applies to lazy records just like it
does for regular `Records`. Also, the insert behavior of `insert` and
`upsert` now match, alongside fixing a few related bugs described below.
Otherwise, a few places were changed to use the `Record` API.
# Tests
Added tests for two bugs:
- `{a: {}} | insert a.b.c 0`: before this PR, doesn't create the
innermost record `c`.
- `{table: [[col]; [{a: 1}], [{a: 1}]]} | insert table.col.b 2`: before
this PR, doesn't add the field `b: 2` to each row.
# Description
These make it easy to make a Span that covers an entire argument and the
span of all arguments in a Call.
Call::arguments_span() is useful for errors where a command may accept
arguments or the pipeline, but not both.
Argument::span() is useful for errors where an arguments is incompatible
with one or more other arguments.
In particular, I wish to use this to create an error for an
implementation of #9563 that either allows arguments to set limits:
```nushell
limits set RLIMIT_NOFILE --soft 255 --hard 1024
```
Or pipeline:
```nushell
{name: RLIMIT_NOFILE, soft: 255} | limits set
```
But not both:
```
❯ [{name: RLIMIT_NOFILE, soft: 255, hard: 1024}] | limits set AS --soft 5 --hard 5
Error: nu:🐚:incompatible_parameters
× Incompatible parameters.

# Description
This PR fixes a minor bug that prevented this command from running.
```nushell
table --list | each {|r| print ($r); print (ls | first 3 | table --theme $r)}
```
Here's the output now of the first few themes.
It prevented it from running because "default" wasn't a real table
theme. Now "default" is a synonym of rounded.
Also tweaked the error message when a bad theme name is provided.

# Description
Compatible with `Vec::truncate` and `indexmap::IndexMap::truncate`
Found useful in #10903 for `drop column`
# Tests + Formatting
Doctest with the relevant edge-cases
# Description
Add an extension trait `IgnoreCaseExt` to nu_utils which adds some case
insensitivity helpers, and use them throughout nu to improve the
handling of case insensitivity. Proper case folding is done via unicase,
which is already a dependency via mime_guess from nu-command.
In actuality a lot of code still does `to_lowercase`, because unicase
only provides immediate comparison and doesn't expose a `to_folded_case`
yet. And since we do a lot of `contains`/`starts_with`/`ends_with`, it's
not sufficient to just have `eq_ignore_case`. But if we get access in
the future, this makes us ready to use it with a change in one place.
Plus, it's clearer what the purpose is at the call site to call
`to_folded_case` instead of `to_lowercase` if it's exclusively for the
purpose of case insensitive comparison, even if it just does
`to_lowercase` still.
# User-Facing Changes
- Some commands that were supposed to be case insensitive remained only
insensitive to ASCII case (a-z), and now are case insensitive w.r.t.
non-ASCII characters as well.

# Description
Replaces the only usage of `Value::follow_cell_path_not_from_user_input`
with some `Record::get`s.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change for `nu-protocol`, since
`Value::follow_cell_path_not_from_user_input` was deleted.
Nushell now reports errors for when environment conversions are not
closures.
# Description
This is pretty complementary/orthogonal to @IanManske 's changes to
`Value` cellpath accessors in:
- #10925
- to a lesser extent #10926
## Steps
- Use `R.remove` in `Value.remove_data_at_cell_path`
- Pretty sound after #10875 (tests mentioned in commit message have been
removed by that)
- Update `did_you_mean` helper to use iterator
- Change `Value::columns` to return iterator
- This is not a place of honor
- Use `Record::get` in `Value::get_data_by_key`
# User-Facing Changes
None intentional, potential edge cases on duplicated columns could
change (considered undefined behavior)
# Tests + Formatting
(-)
Matches the general behavior of `Vec::drain` or
`indexmap::IndexMap::drain`:
- Drop the remaining elements (implementing the unstable `keep_rest()`
would not be compatible with something like `indexmap`)
- No `AsRef<[T]>` or `Drain::as_slice()` behavior as this would make
layout assumptions.
- `Drain: DoubleEndedIterator`
Found useful in #10903
# Description
Where appropriate, this PR replaces instances of
`Value::get_data_by_key` and `Value::follow_cell_path` with
`Record::get`. This avoids some unnecessary clones and simplifies the
code in some places.
# Description
Our config exists both as a `Config` struct for internal consumption and
as a `Value`. The latter is exposed through `$env.config` and can be
both set and read.
Thus we have a complex bug-prone mechanism, that reads a `Value` and
then tries to plug anything where the value is unrepresentable in
`Config` with the correct state from `Config`.
The parsing involves therefore mutation of the `Value` in a nested
`Record` structure. Previously this was wholy done manually, with
indices.
To enable deletion for example, things had to be iterated over from the
back. Also things were indexed in a bunch of places. This was hard to
read and an invitation for bugs.
With #10876 we can now use `Record::retain_mut` to traverse the records,
modify anything that needs fixing, and drop invalid fields.
# Parts:
- Error messages now consistently use the correct spans pointing to the
problematic value and the paths displayed in some messages are also
aligned with the keys used for lookup.
- Reconstruction of values has been fixed for:
- `table.padding`
- `buffer_editor`
- `hooks.command_not_found`
- `datetime_format` (partial solution)
- Fix validation of `table.padding` input so value is not set (and
underflows `usize` causing `table` to run forever with negative values)
- New proper types for settings. Fully validated enums instead of
strings:
- `config.edit_mode` -> `EditMode`
- Don't fall back to vi-mode on invalid string
- `config.table.mode` -> `TableMode`
- there is still a fall back to `rounded` if given an invalid
`TableMode` as argument to the `nu` binary
- `config.completions.algorithm` -> `CompletionAlgorithm`
- `config.error_style` -> `ErrorStyle`
- don't implicitly fall back to `fancy` when given an invalid value.
- This should also shrink the size of `Config` as instead of 4x24 bytes
those fields now need only 4x1 bytes in `Config`
- Completely removed macros relying on the scope of `Value::into_config`
so we can break it up into smaller parts in the future.
- Factored everything into smaller files with the types and helpers for
particular topics.
- `NuCursorShape` now explicitly expresses the `Inherit` setting.
conversion to option only happens at the interface to `reedline`
# Description
Changes the `captures` field in `Closure` from a `HashMap` to a `Vec`
and makes `Stack::captures_to_stack` take an owned `Vec` instead of a
borrowed `HashMap`.
This eliminates the conversion to a `Vec` inside `captures_to_stack` and
makes it possible to avoid clones altogether when using an owned
`Closure` (which is the case for most commands). Additionally, using a
`Vec` reduces the size of `Value` by 8 bytes (down to 72).
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking API change for `nu-protocol`.

This is easy to do with rust-analyzer, but I didn't want to just pump
these all out without feedback.

Consequences of #10841
This does not yet make the assumption that columns are always
duplicated. Follow the existing logic here
- Use saner record API in `nu-engine/src/eval.rs`
- Use checked record construction in `nu-engine/src/scope.rs`
- Use `values` iterator in `nu-engine/src/scope.rs`
- Use `columns` iterator in `nu_engine::get_columns()`
- Start using record API in `value/mod.rs`
- Use `.insert` in `eval_const.rs` Record code
- Record API for `eval_const.rs` table code

# Description
Pretty much all operations/commands in Nushell assume that the column
names/keys in a record and thus also in a table (which consists of a
list of records) are unique.
Access through a string-like cell path should refer to a single column
or key/value pair and our output through `table` will only show the last
mention of a repeated column name.
```nu
[[a a]; [1 2]]
╭─#─┬─a─╮
│ 0 │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
```
While the record parsing already either errors with the
`ShellError::ColumnDefinedTwice` or silently overwrites the first
occurence with the second occurence, the table literal syntax `[[header
columns]; [val1 val2]]` currently still allowed the creation of tables
(and internally records with more than one entry with the same name.
This is not only confusing, but also breaks some assumptions around how
we can efficiently perform operations or in the past lead to outright
bugs (e.g. #8431 fixed by #8446).
This PR proposes to make this an error.
After this change another hole which allowed the construction of records
with non-unique column names will be plugged.
## Parts
- Fix `SE::ColumnDefinedTwice` error code
- Remove previous tests permitting duplicate columns
- Deny duplicate column in table literal eval
- Deny duplicate column in const eval
- Deny duplicate column in `from nuon`
# User-Facing Changes
`[[a a]; [1 2]]` will now return an error:
```
Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice
× Record field or table column used twice
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ [[a a]; [1 2]]
· ┬ ┬
· │ ╰── field redefined here
· ╰── field first defined here
╰────
```
this may under rare circumstances block code from evaluating.
Furthermore this makes some NUON files invalid if they previously
contained tables with repeated column names.
# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for each of the different evaluation paths that materialize
tables.
