# 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
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
@sholderbach pointed out some places that I could help improve the code
in the table command changes. This PR tries to implement those.

# 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
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`
