# Description
This PR adds an alternative alias implementation. Old aliases still work
but you need to use `old-alias` instead of `alias`.
Instead of replacing spans in the original code and re-parsing, which
proved to be extremely error-prone and a constant source of panics, the
new implementation creates a new command that references the old
command. Consider the new alias defined as `alias ll = ls -l`. The
parser creates a new command called `ll` and remembers that it is
actually a `ls` command called with the `-l` flag. Then, when the parser
sees the `ll` command, it will translate it to `ls -l` and passes to it
any parameters that were passed to the call to `ll`. It works quite
similar to how known externals defined with `extern` are implemented.
The new alias implementation should work the same way as the old
aliases, including exporting from modules, referencing both known and
unknown externals. It seems to preserve custom completions and pipeline
metadata. It is quite robust in most cases but there are some rough
edges (see later).

Should use custom command instead:

# User-Facing Changes
Since aliases are now basically commands, it has some new implications:
1. `alias spam = "spam"` (requires command call)
* **workaround**: use `alias spam = echo "spam"`
2. `def foo [] { 'foo' }; alias foo = ls -l` (foo defined more than
once)
* **workaround**: use different name (commands also have this
limitation)
4. `alias ls = (ls | sort-by type name -i)`
* **workaround**: Use custom command. _The common issue with this is
that it is currently not easy to pass flags through custom commands and
command referencing itself will lead to stack overflow. Both of these
issues are meant to be addressed._
5. TODO: Help messages, `which` command, `$nu.scope.aliases`, etc.
* Should we treat the aliases as commands or should they be separated
from regular commands?
6. Needs better error message and syntax highlight for recursed alias
(`alias f = f`)
7. Can't create alias with the same name as existing command (`alias ls
= ls -a`)
* Might be possible to add support for it (not 100% sure)
8. Standalone `alias` doesn't list aliases anymore
9. Can't alias parser keywords (e.g., stuff like `alias ou = overlay
use` won't work)
* TODO: Needs a better error message when attempting to do so

# Description
This does two fixes for bare words:
* It changes completions for paths to wrap a path with backticks if it
starts with a number. This helps bare words that start with numbers be
separate from unit values
* It allows bare words wrapped with backticks to be the name of a
command. Backtick values in command positions are no longer treated as
strings

I have changed `assert!(a == b)` calls to `assert_eq!(a, b)`, which give
better error messages. Similarly for `assert!(a != b)` and
`assert_ne!(a, b)`. Basically all instances were comparing primitives
(string slices or integers), so there is no loss of generality from
special-case macros,
I have also fixed a number of typos in comments, variable names, and a
few user-facing messages.
# 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.

# Description
This PR is a response to the issues raised in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/7087. It consists of two
changes:
* `export-env`, when evaluated in `overlay use`, will see the original
environment. Previously, it would see the environment from previous
overlay activation.
* Added a new `--reload` flag that reloads the overlay. Custom
definitions will be kept but the original definitions and environment
will be reloaded.
This enables a pattern when an overlay is supposed to shadow an existing
environment variable, such as `PROMPT_COMMAND`, but `overlay use` would
keep loading the value from the first activation. You can easily test it
by defining a module
```
module prompt {
export-env {
let-env PROMPT_COMMAND = (date now | into string)
}
}
```
Calling `overlay use prompt` for the first time changes the prompt to
the current time, however, subsequent calls of `overlay use` won't
change the time. That's because overlays, once activated, store their
state so they can be hidden and restored at later time. To force-reload
the environment, use the new flag: Calling `overlay use --reload prompt`
repeatedly now updates the prompt with the current time each time.
# User-Facing Changes
* When calling `overlay use`, if the module has an `export-env` block,
the block will see the environment as it is _before_ the overlay is
activated. Previously, it was _after_.
* A new `overlay use --reload` flag.

* Add two more overlay tests
* Add ModuleId to OverlayFrame
* Fix env conversion accidentally activating overlay
It activated overlay from permanent state prematurely which would
cause `overlay add` to misbehave.
* Remove unused parameter; Add overlay list test
* Remove added traces
* Add overlay commands examples
* Modify TODO
* Fix $nu.scope iteration
* Disallow removing default overlay
* Refactor some parser errors
* Remove last overlay if no argument
* Diversify overlay examples
* Make it possible to update overlay's module
In case the origin module updates, the overlay add loads the new module,
makes it overlay's origin and applies the changes. Before, it was
impossible to update the overlay if the module changed.
