sub-issue of #10698 according to @sholderbach
(Description largely edited, since the scope of the PR changed)
# Description
Context: `ShellError::OnlySupportsThisInputType` was a duplicate of
`ShellError::PipelineMismatch`
so I
- replaced some occurences of PipelineMismatch by
OnlySupportsThisInputType
For another PR
- replace the remaining occurences
- removed OnlySupportsThisInputType from nu-protocol

# Description
Small refactoring where I rename commands from "SubCommand" to its
proper name. Motivations: better clarity (although subjective), better
searchable, consistency.
The only commands I didn't touch were "split list" and "ansi gradient"
because of name clashes.

# Description
We removed the regex crate long ago but there were a few instances where
we could not remove it because fancy-regex did not have a split/splitn,
and maybe other functions. Those functions now exist in the latest
fancy-regex crate so we can now remove it.

# Description
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.
Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.
# User-Facing Changes
`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
Breaking change in the plugin protocol:
In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
The same rename also takes place for the methods on
`SimplePluginCommand` and `PluginCommand`

# Description
This PR introduces a new `Signals` struct to replace our adhoc passing
around of `ctrlc: Option<Arc<AtomicBool>>`. Doing so has a few benefits:
- We can better enforce when/where resetting or triggering an interrupt
is allowed.
- Consolidates `nu_utils::ctrl_c::was_pressed` and other ad-hoc
re-implementations into a single place: `Signals::check`.
- This allows us to add other types of signals later if we want. E.g.,
exiting or suspension.
- Similarly, we can more easily change the underlying implementation if
we need to in the future.
- Places that used to have a `ctrlc` of `None` now use
`Signals::empty()`, so we can double check these usages for correctness
in the future.

Unresolved questions:
- [ ] Do const commands need special marks in the docs?
# Description
When implementing a `Command`, one must also import all the types
present in the function signatures for `Command`. This makes it so that
we often import the same set of types in each command implementation
file. E.g., something like this:
```rust
use nu_protocol::ast::Call;
use nu_protocol::engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack};
use nu_protocol::{
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, PipelineData,
ShellError, Signature, Span, Type, Value,
};
```
This PR adds the `nu_engine::command_prelude` module which contains the
necessary and commonly used types to implement a `Command`:
```rust
// command_prelude.rs
pub use crate::CallExt;
pub use nu_protocol::{
ast::{Call, CellPath},
engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack},
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, IntoSpanned,
PipelineData, Record, ShellError, Signature, Span, Spanned, SyntaxShape, Type, Value,
};
```
This should reduce the boilerplate needed to implement a command and
also gives us a place to track the breadth of the `Command` API. I tried
to be conservative with what went into the prelude modules, since it
might be hard/annoying to remove items from the prelude in the future.
Let me know if something should be included or excluded.
# Description
Following #11851, this PR adds one final conversion function for
`Value`. `Value::coerce_str` takes a `&Value` and converts it to a
`Cow<str>`, creating an owned `String` for types that needed converting.
Otherwise, it returns a borrowed `str` for `String` and `Binary`
`Value`s which avoids a clone/allocation. Where possible, `coerce_str`
and `coerce_into_string` should be used instead of `coerce_string`,
since `coerce_string` always allocates a new `String`.
# Description
This PR renames the conversion functions on `Value` to be more consistent.
It follows the Rust [API guidelines](https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html#ad-hoc-conversions-follow-as_-to_-into_-conventions-c-conv) for ad-hoc conversions.
The conversion functions on `Value` now come in a few forms:
- `coerce_{type}` takes a `&Value` and attempts to convert the value to
`type` (e.g., `i64` are converted to `f64`). This is the old behavior of
some of the `as_{type}` functions -- these functions have simply been
renamed to better reflect what they do.
- The new `as_{type}` functions take a `&Value` and returns an `Ok`
result only if the value is of `type` (no conversion is attempted). The
returned value will be borrowed if `type` is non-`Copy`, otherwise an
owned value is returned.
- `into_{type}` exists for non-`Copy` types, but otherwise does not
attempt conversion just like `as_type`. It takes an owned `Value` and
always returns an owned result.
- `coerce_into_{type}` has the same relationship with `coerce_{type}` as
`into_{type}` does with `as_{type}`.
- `to_{kind}_string`: conversion to different string formats (debug,
abbreviated, etc.). Only two of the old string conversion functions were
removed, the rest have been renamed only.
- `to_{type}`: other conversion functions. Currently, only `to_path`
exists. (And `to_string` through `Display`.)
This table summaries the above:
| Form | Cost | Input Ownership | Output Ownership | Converts `Value`
case/`type` |
| ---------------------------- | ----- | --------------- |
---------------- | -------- |
| `as_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | No |
| `into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | No |
| `coerce_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | Yes |
| `coerce_into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{kind}_string` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{type}` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking API change for `Value` in `nu-protocol` which is exposed as
part of the plugin API.
# Description
This updates all the positional arguments (except with
`--features=dataframe` or `--features=extra`) to start with an uppercase
letter and end with a period.
Part of #5066, specifically [this
comment](/nushell/nushell/issues/5066#issuecomment-1421528910)
Some arguments had example data removed from them because it also
appears in the examples.
There are other inconsistencies in positional arguments I noticed while
making the tests pass which I will bring up in #5066.
# User-Facing Changes
Positional arguments are now consistent

# Description
Replace `.to_string()` used in `GenericError` with `.into()` as
`.into()` seems more popular
Replace `Vec::new()` used in `GenericError` with `vec![]` as `vec![]`
seems more popular
(There are so, so many)
# Description
As part of the refactor to split spans off of Value, this moves to using
helper functions to create values, and using `.span()` instead of
matching span out of Value directly.
Hoping to get a few more helping hands to finish this, as there are a
lot of commands to update :)

# Description
This doesn't really do much that the user could see, but it helps get us
ready to do the steps of the refactor to split the span off of Value, so
that values can be spanless. This allows us to have top-level values
that can hold both a Value and a Span, without requiring that all values
have them.
We expect to see significant memory reduction by removing so many
unnecessary spans from values. For example, a table of 100,000 rows and
5 columns would have a savings of ~8megs in just spans that are almost
always duplicated.

# Description
This command also flat-maps and doesn't create a table like `split
column`
We should probably reconsider the flatmap behavior like in #9739
but for the #9812 hotfix this is an unwelcome breaking change.
# User-Facing Changes
None
# Tests + Formatting
- Fix signature of `split row`
- Add test for output signature
# Description
With the current typechecking logic this property has no effect.
It was only used in the example testing, and provided some indication of
this vectorizing property.
With #9742 all commands that previously declared it have explicit list
signatures. If we want to get it back in the future we can reconstruct
it from the signature.
Simplifies the example testing a bit.
# User-Facing Changes
Causes a breaking change for plugins that previously declared it. While
this causes a compile fail, this was already broken by our more
stringent type checking.
This will be a good reminder for plugin authors to update their
signature as well to reflect the more stringent type checking.
# Description
This PR tights input/output type-checking a bit more. There are a lot of
commands that don't have correct input/output types, so part of the
effort is updating them.
This PR now contains updates to commands that had wrong input/output
signatures. It doesn't add examples for these new signatures, but that
can be follow-up work.
# User-Facing Changes
BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE
This work enforces many more checks on pipeline type correctness than
previous nushell versions. This strictness may uncover incompatibilities
in existing scripts or shortcomings in the type information for internal
commands.

# Description
Verified on discord with maintainer
Change adds regex separators in split rows/column/list. The primary
motivating reason was to make it easier to split on separators with
unbounded whitespace without requiring a lot of trim jiggery. But,
secondary motivation is the same as the set of all motivations for
adding split regex features to most languages.
# User-Facing Changes

# Description
Our `ShellError` at the moment has a `std::mem::size_of<ShellError>` of
136 bytes (on AMD64). As a result `Value` directly storing the struct
also required 136 bytes (thanks to alignment requirements).
This change stores the `Value::Error` `ShellError` on the heap.
Pro:
- Value now needs just 80 bytes
- Should be 1 cacheline less (still at least 2 cachelines)
Con:
- More small heap allocations when dealing with `Value::Error`
- More heap fragmentation
- Potential for additional required memcopies
# Further code changes
Includes a small refactor of `try` due to a type mismatch in its large
match.
# User-Facing Changes
None for regular users.
Plugin authors may have to update their matches on `Value` if they use
`nu-protocol`
Needs benchmarking to see if there is a benefit in real world workloads.
**Update** small improvements in runtime for workloads with high volume
of values. Significant reduction in maximum resident set size, when many
values are held in memory.

# Description
The `ShellError` enum at the moment is kind of messy.
Many variants are basic tuple structs where you always have to reference
the implementation with its macro invocation to know which field serves
which purpose.
Furthermore we have both variants that are kind of redundant or either
overly broad to be useful for the user to match on or overly specific
with few uses.
So I set out to start fixing the lacking documentation and naming to
make it feasible to critically review the individual usages and fix
those.
Furthermore we can decide to join or split up variants that don't seem
to be fit for purpose.
Feel free to add review comments if you spot inconsistent use of
`ShellError` variants.

`echo` tends to confuse new Nu users; they expect it to work like
`print` when it just passes a value to the next stage of the pipeline.
We haven't quite figured out what to do about `echo` in the long run,
but I think a good start is to remove `echo` from command examples where
it would be unnecessary and arguably unidiomatic.

Make split row works more like python or rust, especially, when the

Here are examples:
python:
```python
In [6]: "\nasdf\nghi\n".split("\n")
Out[6]: ['', 'asdf', 'ghi', '']
```
rust:
```rust
fn main() {
let x = "\nabc\ndef\n";
let y = x.split("\n").collect::<Vec<&str>>();
println!("{:?}", y); // outputs: ["", "abc", "def", ""]
}
