* Add input and output types to $nu.scope.commands
This commit changes the schema: instead of
command.signature: table
we now have
command.signatures: list<table>
with one signature for every input-output type pair.
* Represent signatures as a map from input_type to signature
* Sort signature entries
* Drop command name from signature tables
* Don't use "rest" as name of rest parameter; use empty string instead
* Bug fix: was creating records with repeated keys
E.g.
$nu.scope.commands | where name == 'hash sha256' | get signatures.0 | table -e
$nu.scope.commands | where name == 'transpose' | get signatures.0 | table -e
* removes unused features.
* Adds back multithreading feature to sysinfo.
* Adds back alloc for percent-encoding
* Adds updated lock file.
* Missed one sysinfo.
* `indexmap` just defaults
* Revert `miette``default-features=false`

This adds support for (limited) mutable variables. Mutable variables are created with mut much the same way immutable variables are made with let.
Mutable variables allow mutation via the assignment operator (=).
❯ mut x = 100
❯ $x = 200
❯ print $x
200
Mutable variables are limited in that they're only tended to be used in the local code block. Trying to capture a local variable will result in an error:
❯ mut x = 123; {|| $x }
Error: nu::parser::expected_keyword (link)
× Capture of mutable variable.
The intent of this limitation is to reduce some of the issues with mutable variables in general: namely they make code that's harder to reason about. By reducing the scope that a mutable variable can be used it, we can help create local reasoning about them.
Mutation can occur with fields as well, as in this case:
❯ mut y = {abc: 123}
❯ $y.abc = 456
❯ $y
On a historical note: mutable variables are something that we resisted for quite a long time, leaning as much as we could on the functional style of pipelines and dataflow. That said, we've watched folks struggle to work with reduce as an approximation for patterns that would be trivial to express with local mutation. With that in mind, we're leaning towards the happy path.
