Adds warning to `url join` when input key is not supported as suggested
by @amtoine in #10506.
It just adds a `println!` statement but it seems like that is all that
is done for other warnings, e.g.,

> [!NOTE]
> This PR description originally used examples where the `generator`
closure returned a list. It has since been updated to use records
instead.
The `unfold` command allows users to dynamically generate streams of
data. The stream is generated by repeatedly invoking a `generator`
closure. The `generator` closure accepts a single argument and returns a
record containing two optional keys: 'out' and 'next'. Each invocation,
the 'out' value, if present, is added to the stream. If a 'next' key is
present, it is used as the next argument to the closure, otherwise
generation stops.
The name "unfold" is borrowed from other functional-programming
languages. Whereas `fold` (or `reduce`) takes a stream of values and
outputs a single value, `unfold` takes a single value and outputs a
stream of values.
### Examples
A common example of using `unfold` is to generate a fibbonacci sequence.
See
[here](6ffdac103c/src/sources.rs (L65))
for an example of this in rust's `itertools`.
```nushell
> unfold [0, 1] {|fib| {out: $fib.0, next: [$fib.1, ($fib.0 + $fib.1)]} } | first 10
───┬────
0 │ 0
1 │ 1
2 │ 1
3 │ 2
4 │ 3
5 │ 5
6 │ 8
7 │ 13
8 │ 21
9 │ 34
───┴────
```
This command is particularly useful when consuming paginated APIs, like
Github's. Previously, nushell users might use a loop and buffer
responses into a list, before returning all responses at once. However,
this behavior is not desirable if the result result is very large. Using
`unfold` avoids buffering and allows subsequent pipeline stages to use
the data concurrently, as it's being fetched.
#### Before
```nushell
mut pages = []
for page in 1.. {
let resp = http get (
{
scheme: https,
host: "api.github.com",
path: "/repos/nushell/nushell/issues",
params: {
page: $page,
per_page: $PAGE_SIZE
}
} | url join)
$pages = ($pages | append $resp)
if ($resp | length) < $PAGE_SIZE {
break
}
}
$pages
```
#### After
```nu
unfold 1 {|page|
let resp = http get (
{
scheme: https,
host: "api.github.com",
path: "/repos/nushell/nushell/issues",
params: {
page: $page,
per_page: $PAGE_SIZE
}
} | url join)
if ($resp | length) < $PAGE_SIZE {
{out: $resp}
} else {
{out: $resp, next: ($page + 1)}
}
}
```

# Description
Closes#10441
Uses `String::to_lowercase()` when the file's extension `ext` is parsed
to allow `from_decl(format!("from {ext}"))` to return the desired output
regardless of extension case.
It doesn't work with sqlite files since those are handled earlier in the
parsing but I think is good- since there's no standard file extension
used by sqlite so a user will likely want case sensitivity in that case.
This also has the (possibly undesired) effect of making `open`
completely case insensitive, e.g. `open foo.JSON` will work on a file
named `foo.json` and vice versa. This is good on Windows as it treats
`foo.json` and `foo.JSON` as the same file, but may not be the desired
behaviour on Unix.
If this behaviour is undesired I assume it would be fixed with a
`#[cfg(not(unix))]` attribute on the `to_lowercase()` operation but that
produces slightly "uglier" code that I didn't wish to submit unless
necessary.
old behaviour:
new behaviour:

You can now either pass a string with the name of the executable or a

`$env.config.buffer_editor`/`$env.EDITOR`/`$env.VISUAL`
Both the external buffer editor of reedline (by default bound to

those variables in the following order:
1. `$env.config.buffer_editor`
2. `$env.EDITOR`
3. `$env.VISUAL`
Example:
```
$env.EDITOR = "nvim" # The system-wide EDITOR is neovim
$env.config.buffer_editor = ["vim" "-p2"] # Force vim to open two tabs (not particularly useful)
$env.config.buffer_editor = null # Unset `buffer_editor` -> Uses `$env.EDITOR` ergo nvim

# Description
because we already have `null` as the value of the type `nothing` and as

redundant `$nothing` built-in variable 😋
this PR is the first step, deprecating `$nothing`.
a followup PR will remove it altogether and wait for 0.87 👍⚙️ **details**: a new `NOTHING_VARIABLE_ID = 3` has been added,
parsing `$nothing` will create it, finally a `Value::Nothing` will be
produced and a warning will be reported.
this PR already fixes the `toolkit.nu` module so that it does not throw
a bunch of warnings each time 👌

Closes#5436
When I opened this issue more than a year ago, I mainly wanted the
following capacity: easily access the full env and have the hability to
update it when a new version of `nushell` comes out.
With this PR I can now do the following:
```nu
source-env ~/.config/nushell/defaults/env.nu
source ~/.config/nushell/defaults/config.nu
# Update nushell default config & env file (run this after a version update)
def update-defaults [] {
config env --default | save -f ~/.config/nushell/defaults/env.nu
config nu --default | save -f ~/.config/nushell/defaults/config.nu
}
```
Which is more than enough for me. Along with `nushell` respecting the
XDG spec on macOS (`dirs-next` should be banned for CLI tools on macOS),
this should be one of the last hurdle before fully switching for me!

# Description
Fixes: #10450
This pr differentiating between `--x: bool` and `--x`
Here are examples which demostrate difference between them:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x };
a --x # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
a # it's allowed, and the value of `$x` is false, which behaves the same to `def a [--x] { $x }; a`
```
For boolean flag with default value, it works a little bit different to
#10450 mentioned:
```nushell
def foo [--option: bool = false] { $option }
foo # output false
foo --option # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
foo --option true # output true
```
# User-Facing Changes
After the pr, the following code is not allowed:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x }; a --x
```
Instead, you have to pass a value to flag `--x` like `a --x false`. But
bare flag works in the same way as before.
## Update: one more breaking change to help on #7260
```
def foo [--option: bool] { $option == null }
foo
```
After the pr, if we don't use a boolean flag, the value will be `null`
instead of `true`. Because here `--option: bool` is treated as a flag
rather than a switch

# Description
While reviewing #10350 I noticed that a `HashSet<usize>` was used to
deduplicate the incoming rows, which are then sorted after cloning to a
separate `Vec`. This sounds like a candidate for a `BTreeSet` which
guarantees the ordering.
In the process I removed some dead code.
- Use `BTreeSet` instead of `HashSet`
- Remove dead `skip` logic
- Use `BTreeSet` directly in `NthIterator`
- Consume `BTreeSet` through `Peekable<IntoIter>`

# Description
This new command `into value` is a command that tries to infer the type
of data you have in a table. It converts each cell to a string and then
runs a set of regular expressions on that string. This was mostly
cobbled together after looking at how polars does similar things. The
regular expressions were taken straight form polars and tweaked.

It's definitely not perfect. There are ways it will fail because on
regular expressions not working on all formats. My hope is that people
will pick this up and add more regular expressions and if there are
problems with the existing ones, change them. This is meant as a
"starter command" with easy entry for newcomers that are looking to chip
in and help out.
Also, some tests probably need to be added to ensure what we have now
doesn't break with updates.

# Description
Fixes: #10410
So the following script is possible:
```nushell
def a [b: any = null] { let b = ($b | default "default_b"); }
a "given_b"
```
## About the change
When parsing signature, and nushell meets something like `a: any`, it
force the parser to treat `a` as `any` type. This is what
`arg_explicit_type` means, it's only set when we goes into
`ParseMode::TypeMode`, and it will be reset to `false` if the token goes
to next argument.
so, when we have something like this: `def a [b: any = null] { $b }`,
the type of `$b` won't be overwritten.
But if we have something like this: `def a [b = null] { $b }`, the type
of `$b` is not annotated, so we make it to be `nothing`(which is the
type of null)

# Description
`str replace --string` has been deprecated in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/10038 and should be removed
before 0.85.
this PR removes the `--string` option from `str replace` completely.
# User-Facing Changes
`str replace --string` will no longer work and will give an error
instead of a warning.

# Description
We made the decision that our floating point type should be referred to
as `float` over `decimal`.
Commands were updated by #9979 and #10320
Now make the internal codebase consistent in referring to this data type
as `float`.
Work for #10332
# User-Facing Changes
`decimal` has been removed as a type name/symbol.
Instead of
```nushell
def foo [bar: decimal] decimal -> decimal {}
```
use
```nushell
def foo [bar: float] float -> float {}
```
Potential effect of `SyntaxShape`'s `Display` implementation now also
referring to `float` instead of `decimal`
# Details
- Rename `SyntaxShape::Decimal` to `Float`
- Update `Display for SyntaxShape` to `float`
- Update error message + fn name in dataframe code
- Fix docs in command examples
- Rename tests that are float specific
- Update doccomment on `SyntaxShape`
- Update comment in script
# Tests + Formatting
Updates the names of some tests
# Description
this commit adds the handling of Value::List when BodyType is Json
it also adds the corresponding test (trying to send a list)

note: test are not actually make scenes cause `nu!` strips colors.
(Ideally it would need a flag to not do so)
note: It does does does ... slower down quite a bit rendering... (
PS: Maybe it's better being a flag to `table` rather then a
configuration option?
PS: I am not sure why the logic was removed in a first place
This PR is in reference to #10215.
This PR changes `select` to work even if multiple equal items were
provided.
This would previously error, but now works
```nushell
let arg = [ 1 a ]
[[a b c]; [1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]]
| select $arg
```
# User-Facing Changes
Nothing too radical, just experience improvements. Users won't need to
pass the values through `unique` beforehand.
# Description
Currently we support "multiplication" of strings, resulting in a terse
way to repeat a particular string.
This can have unintended side effects when dealing with mixed data (e.g.
after parsing data that is not all numbers).
Furthermore as we frequently fall-back to strings while parsing source
code, this introduced a runaway edge case in const evaluation (#10212)
Work for #10233
## Details
- Remove python-like string multiplication.
- Workaround for indentation
- This should probably be addressed with a purpose built command
- Remove special const-eval error test
# User-Facing Changes
**Major breaking change!**
`"string" * 42` will stop working. (This was used for example in the
stdlib)
We should bless a good alternative before landing this
---------
Co-authored-by: JT <547158+jntrnr@users.noreply.github.com>
Elide the reference for `Copy` type (`usize`)
Use the canonical deref where possible.
* `&Box` -> `&`
* `&String` -> `&str`
* `&PathBuf` -> `&Path`
Skips the ctrl-C handler for now.
# Description
The pythonism that multiplying a scalar integer with a list results in a
repeated concatenation of the list, is ambiguous with other possible
interpretations and thus actively harmful to clear semantics in nushell.
Another possible reading of this scalar/vector product would be trying
to perform elementwise multiplication with the scalar.
Before we bless this alternative as a more reasonable design the best
course of action is to remove this pythonism.
Work related to #10233
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change as this turns `int * list` or `list * int` into hard
errors.
# Tests + Formatting
Remove the associated test
# Description
This PR tried to add a few more columns to the Linux `ps -l` command.
Those columns are:
* start_time
* user_id
* priority
* process_threads
There are a few that I left commented out that could be added but the
screen was beginning to look crowded. So, I left out:
* group_id
* session_id
* tgp_id (which could be helpful for eventual job control)
And there's like 100 more things that could be added that didn't seem
especially useful right now.

# Description
This changes `echo` to work more closely to what users of other shells
would expect:
* when redirected, `echo` works as before and sends values through the
pipeline
* when not redirected, `echo` will print values to the screen/terminal
# User-Facing Changes
A standalone `echo` now will print to the terminal, if not redirected.
The `echo` command is no longer const eval-able, as it will now print to
the terminal in some cases.

<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library

fixes#8551
# Description
Use `open::commands` function to get list of command available for
starting given path. run commands directly, providing environment, until
one of them is successful.
example of output if start was not successful:
```
~\code\nushell> start ..\nustart\a.myext 09/12/2023 01:37:55 PM
Error: nu:🐚:external_command
× External command failed
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ start ..\nustart\a.myext
· ─────────┬────────
· ╰── No command found to start with this path
╰────
help: Try different path or install appropriate command
Command `cmd /c start "" "..\nustart\a.myext"` failed with exit code: 1
```
# User-Facing Changes
`start` command now provides environment to the external command. This
is how it worked in `nu 0.72`, see linked issue.
# Tests + Formatting
`start` command didn't have any tests and this PR does not add any.
Integration-level tests will require setup specific to OS and
potentially change global environment on testing machine. For unit-level
test it is possible to test `try_commands` function. But is still runs
external commands, and robust test will require apriori knowledge which
commands are necessary successful to run and which are not.
# Description
Similar to #9979
# User-Facing Changes
`random decimal` will now raise a warning and can be removed in an
upcoming release.
New command is named `random float`
# Tests + Formatting
Tests updated and improved.
# Description
We keep "into decimal" for a release and warn through a message that it
will be removed in 0.86.
All tests are updated to use `into float`
# User-Facing Changes
`into decimal` raises a deprecation warning, will be removed soon.
Use `into float` as the new functionally identical command instead.
```
~/nushell> 2 | into decimal
Error: × Deprecated command

# Description
This generally makes for nicer APIs, as you are not forced to use an
existing allocation covering the full `String`.
Some exceptions remain where the underlying type requirements favor it.
# User-Facing Changes
None
