Split the plugin crate (#12563)
# Description

This breaks `nu-plugin` up into four crates:

- `nu-plugin-protocol`: just the type definitions for the protocol, no
I/O. If someone wanted to wire up something more bare metal, maybe for
async I/O, they could use this.
- `nu-plugin-core`: the shared stuff between engine/plugin. Less stable
interface.
- `nu-plugin-engine`: everything required for the engine to talk to
plugins. Less stable interface.
- `nu-plugin`: everything required for the plugin to talk to the engine,
what plugin developers use. Should be the most stable interface.

No changes are made to the interface exposed by `nu-plugin` - it should
all still be there. Re-exports from `nu-plugin-protocol` or
`nu-plugin-core` are used as required. Plugins shouldn't ever have to
use those crates directly.

This should be somewhat faster to compile as `nu-plugin-engine` and
`nu-plugin` can compile in parallel, and the engine doesn't need
`nu-plugin` and plugins don't need `nu-plugin-engine` (except for test
support), so that should reduce what needs to be compiled too.

The only significant change here other than splitting stuff up was to
break the `source` out of `PluginCustomValue` and create a new
`PluginCustomValueWithSource` type that contains that instead. One bonus
of that is we get rid of the option and it's now more type-safe, but it
also means that the logic for that stuff (actually running the plugin
for custom value ops) can live entirely within the `nu-plugin-engine`
crate.

# User-Facing Changes
- New crates.
- Added `local-socket` feature for `nu` to try to make it possible to
compile without that support if needed.

Deprecate register and add plugin use (#12607)
# Description

Adds a new keyword, `plugin use`. Unlike `register`, this merely loads
the signatures from the plugin cache file. The file is configurable with
the `--plugin-config` option either to `nu` or to `plugin use` itself,
just like the other `plugin` family of commands. At the REPL, one might
do this to replace `register`:

```nushell
> plugin add ~/.cargo/bin/nu_plugin_foo
> plugin use foo
```

This will not work in a script, because `plugin use` is a keyword and
`plugin add` does not evaluate at parse time (intentionally). This means
we no longer run random binaries during parse.

The `--plugins` option has been added to allow running `nu` with certain
plugins in one step. This is used especially for the `nu_with_plugins!`
test macro, but I'd imagine is generally useful. The only weird quirk is
that it has to be a list, and we don't really do this for any of our
other CLI args at the moment.

`register` now prints a deprecation parse warning.

This should fix #11923, as we now have a complete alternative to
`register`.

# User-Facing Changes

- Add `plugin use` command
- Deprecate `register`
- Add `--plugins` option to `nu` to replace a common use of `register`

# Tests + Formatting

I think I've tested it thoroughly enough and every existing test passes.
Testing nu CLI options and alternate config files is a little hairy and
I wish there were some more generic helpers for this, so this will go on
my TODO list for refactoring.

Avoid panic when pipe a variable to a custom command which have recursive call (#12491)
# Description
Fixes: #11351

And comment here is also fixed:
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/11351#issuecomment-1996191537

The panic can happened if we pipe a variable to a custom command which
recursively called itself inside another block.

TBH, I think I figure out how it works to panic, but I'm not sure if
there is a potention issue if nushell don't mutate a block in such case.

Overhaul the plugin cache file with a new msgpack+brotli format (#12579)
# Description

- Plugin signatures are now saved to `plugin.msgpackz`, which is
brotli-compressed MessagePack.
- The file is updated incrementally, rather than writing all plugin
commands in the engine every time.
- The file always contains the result of the `Signature` call to the
plugin, even if commands were removed.
- Invalid data for a particular plugin just causes an error to be
reported, but the rest of the plugins can still be parsed

# User-Facing Changes

- The plugin file has a different filename, and it's not a nushell
script.
- The default `plugin.nu` file will be automatically migrated the first
time, but not other plugin config files.
- We don't currently provide any utilities that could help edit this
file, beyond `plugin add` and `plugin rm`
  - `from msgpackz`, `to msgpackz` could also help
- New commands: `plugin add`, `plugin rm`

# Tests + Formatting

Tests added for the format and for the invalid handling.

set the type of default NU_LIB_DIRS and NU_PLUGIN_DIRS to list<string> (#12573)
# Description
Fix: #12489

I believe the issue it's because the default value of `NU_LIB_DIRS` and
`NU_PLUGIN_DIRS` is a string, but it should be a list.

So if users don't set up these values in `env.nu`, we will get a
problem.

Fix circular source causing Nushell to crash (#12262)
# Description

EngineState now tracks the script currently running, instead of the
parent directory of the script. This also provides an easy way to expose
the current running script to the user (Issue #12195).

Similarly, StateWorkingSet now tracks scripts instead of directories.
`parsed_module_files` and `currently_parsed_pwd` are merged into one
variable, `scripts`, which acts like a stack for tracking the current
running script (which is on the top of the stack).

Circular import check is added for `source` operations, in addition to
module import. A simple testcase is added for circular source.

Isolate tests from user config (#12437)
# Description
This is an attempt to isolate the unit tests from whatever might be in
the user's config. If the
user's config is broken in some way or incompatible with this version
(for example, especially if
there are plugins that aren't built for this version), tests can
spuriously fail.

This makes tests more reliably pass the same way they would on CI even
if the user has config, and
should also make them run faster.

I think this is _good enough_, but I still think we should have a
specific config dir env variable for nushell specifically (rather than
having to use `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, which would mess with other things) and
then we can just have `nu-test-support` set that to a temporary dir
containing the shipped default config files.

Add --no-newline option to nu (#12410)
# Description
I have `nu` set as my shell in my editor, which allows me to easily pipe
selections of text to things like `str pascal-case` or even more complex
string operation pipelines, which I find super handy. However, the only
annoying thing is that I pretty much always have to add `| print -n` at
the end, because `nu` adds a newline when it prints the resulting value.

This adds a `--no-newline` option to stop that from happening, and then
you don't need to pipe to `print -n` anymore, you can just have your
shell command for your editor contain that flag.

Fixes a problem introduced in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12420 where one of the config
path tests (`test_xdg_config_symlink`) fails if, on MacOS, a developer
already has config files in the default location for that platform.

This happened because the test is making sure the
`xdg_config_home_invalid` error isn't reported, but to do that, it
asserts that stderr is empty, which it is not if in the case mentioned
above, because Nushell warns that the default location
(`~/.config`/`~/Library/Application Support`) is not empty but
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is empty.

If someone with a Mac could test this, that'd be great.

Fixes #12416. Turns out that in src/main.rs, `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` wasn't
being canonicalized before being compared to `nu_path::config_dir()` to
check if `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` was set to an invalid value. This has been
rectified now.

Thanks to a pointer from Devyn, I've now added tests to make sure the
`xdg_config_home_invalid` error doesn't pop up when `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is
a symlink (and does when it's actually invalid).

Turns out two of the tests in `test_config_path` tried modifying
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` using `playground.with_env` but used `nu!`, so the
subprocess didn't actually use the modified value of `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.
When I added them, I was unaware that the `.with_env` didn't actually
modify the environment. This has now been rectified.

- updating `ctrlc` to `3.4.4`
- updating `wl-clipboard-rs` to `0.8.1`
- update our own dependency on `nix` from `0.27` to `0.28`
  - required fixing uses of `nix::unistd::{tcgetpgrp,tcsetpgrp}`
  - now requires an I/O safe file descriptor
  - fake one pointing to `libc::STDIN_FILENO` (we were only accessing
`0` previously, dito for fish)

Add command_prelude module (#12291)
# 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.

never modified and cloned often (see #12229 for the first improvement).
This also makes the representation more compact as no capacity is
necessary.

Make EngineState clone cheaper with Arc on all of the heavy objects (#12229)
# Description
This makes many of the larger objects in `EngineState` into `Arc`, and
uses `Arc::make_mut` to do clone-on-write if the reference is not
unique. This is generally very cheap, giving us the best of both worlds
- allowing us to mutate without cloning if we have an exclusive
reference, and cloning if we don't.

This started as more of a curiosity for me after remembering that
`Arc::make_mut` exists and can make using `Arc` for mostly immutable
data that sometimes needs to be changed very convenient, and also after
hearing someone complain about memory usage on Discord - this is a
somewhat significant win for that.

The exact objects that were wrapped in `Arc`:

- `files`, `file_contents` - the strings and byte buffers
- `decls` - the whole `Vec`, but mostly to avoid lots of individual
`malloc()` calls on Clone rather than for memory usage
- `blocks` - the blocks themselves, rather than the outer Vec
- `modules` - the modules themselves, rather than the outer Vec
- `env_vars`, `previous_env_vars` - the entire maps
- `config`

The changes required were relatively minimal, but this is a breaking API
change. In particular, blocks are added as Arcs, to allow the parser
cache functionality to work.

With my normal nu config, running on Linux, this saves me about 15 MiB
of process memory usage when running interactively (65 MiB → 50 MiB).

This also makes quick command executions cheaper, particularly since
every REPL loop now involves a clone of the engine state so that we can
recover from a panic. It also reduces memory usage where engine state
needs to be cloned and sent to another thread or kept within an
iterator.

# User-Facing Changes
Shouldn't be any, since it's all internal stuff, but it does change some
public interfaces so it's a breaking change

IO and redirection overhaul (#11934)
# Description
The PR overhauls how IO redirection is handled, allowing more explicit
and fine-grain control over `stdout` and `stderr` output as well as more
efficient IO and piping.

To summarize the changes in this PR:
- Added a new `IoStream` type to indicate the intended destination for a
pipeline element's `stdout` and `stderr`.
- The `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are stored in the `Stack` and to
avoid adding 6 additional arguments to every eval function and
`Command::run`. The `stdout` and `stderr` streams can be temporarily
overwritten through functions on `Stack` and these functions will return
a guard that restores the original `stdout` and `stderr` when dropped.
- In the AST, redirections are now directly part of a `PipelineElement`
as a `Option<Redirection>` field instead of having multiple different
`PipelineElement` enum variants for each kind of redirection. This
required changes to the parser, mainly in `lite_parser.rs`.
- `Command`s can also set a `IoStream` override/redirection which will
apply to the previous command in the pipeline. This is used, for
example, in `ignore` to allow the previous external command to have its
stdout redirected to `Stdio::null()` at spawn time. In contrast, the
current implementation has to create an os pipe and manually consume the
output on nushell's side. File and pipe redirections (`o>`, `e>`, `e>|`,
etc.) have precedence over overrides from commands.

This PR improves piping and IO speed, partially addressing #10763. Using
the `throughput` command from that issue, this PR gives the following
speedup on my setup for the commands below:
| Command | Before (MB/s) | After (MB/s) | Bash (MB/s) |
| --------------------------- | -------------:| ------------:|
-----------:|
| `throughput o> /dev/null` | 1169 | 52938 | 54305 |
| `throughput \| ignore` | 840 | 55438 | N/A |
| `throughput \| null` | Error | 53617 | N/A |
| `throughput \| rg 'x'` | 1165 | 3049 | 3736 |
| `(throughput) \| rg 'x'` | 810 | 3085 | 3815 |

(Numbers above are the median samples for throughput)

This PR also paves the way to refactor our `ExternalStream` handling in
the various commands. For example, this PR already fixes the following
code:
```nushell
^sh -c 'echo -n "hello "; sleep 0; echo "world"' | find "hello world"
```
This returns an empty list on 0.90.1 and returns a highlighted "hello
world" on this PR.

Since the `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are available to commands
when they are run, then this unlocks the potential for more convenient
behavior. E.g., the `find` command can disable its ansi highlighting if
it detects that the output `IoStream` is not the terminal. Knowing the
output streams will also allow background job output to be redirected
more easily and efficiently.

# User-Facing Changes
- External commands returned from closures will be collected (in most
cases):
  ```nushell
  1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print a" }
  ```
This gives `["a", "a"]` on this PR, whereas this used to print "a\na\n"
and then return an empty list.

  ```nushell
  1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print -e a" }
  ```
This gives `["", ""]` and prints "a\na\n" to stderr, whereas this used
to return an empty list and print "a\na\n" to stderr.

- Trailing new lines are always trimmed for external commands when
piping into internal commands or collecting it as a value. (Failure to
decode the output as utf-8 will keep the trailing newline for the last
binary value.) In the current nushell version, the following three code
snippets differ only in parenthesis placement, but they all also have
different outputs:

  1. `1..2 | each { ^echo a }`
     ```
     a
     a
     ╭────────────╮
     │ empty list │
     ╰────────────╯
     ```
  2. `1..2 | each { (^echo a) }`
     ```
     ╭───┬───╮
     │ 0 │ a │
     │ 1 │ a │
     ╰───┴───╯
     ```
  3. `1..2 | (each { ^echo a })`
     ```
     ╭───┬───╮
     │ 0 │ a │
     │   │   │
     │ 1 │ a │
     │   │   │
     ╰───┴───╯
     ```

  But in this PR, the above snippets will all have the same output:
  ```
  ╭───┬───╮
  │ 0 │ a │
  │ 1 │ a │
  ╰───┴───╯
  ```

- All existing flags on `run-external` are now deprecated.

- File redirections now apply to all commands inside a code block:
  ```nushell
  (nu -c "print -e a"; nu -c "print -e b") e> test.out
  ```
This gives "a\nb\n" in `test.out` and prints nothing. The same result
would happen when printing to stdout and using a `o>` file redirection.

- External command output will (almost) never be ignored, and ignoring
output must be explicit now:
  ```nushell
  (^echo a; ^echo b)
  ```
This prints "a\nb\n", whereas this used to print only "b\n". This only
applies to external commands; values and internal commands not in return
position will not print anything (e.g., `(echo a; echo b)` still only
prints "b").

- `complete` now always captures stderr (`do` is not necessary).

Because `std::fs::canonicalize` requires the path to exist, this PR
makes it so that when canonicalizing any config file, the
`$nu.default-config-dir/nushell` part is canonicalized first, then
`$nu.default-config-dir/nushell/foo.nu` is canonicalized.

This should also fix the issue @devyn pointed out
[here](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12118#issuecomment-1989546708)
where a couple of the tests failed if one's `~/.config/nushell` folder
was actually a symlink to a different folder. The tests previously
didn't canonicalize the expected paths.

I was going to make a PR that caches the config directory on startup (as
suggested by fdncred and Ian in Discord), but I can make that part of
this PR if we want to avoid creating unnecessary PRs. I think it
probably makes more sense to separate them though.

Closes #12103

# Description
<!--
Thank you for improving Nushell. Please, check our [contributing

As described in #12103, this PR makes Nushell use `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` as
the config directory if it exists. Otherwise, it uses the old behavior,
which was to use `dirs_next::config_dir()`.

Edit: We discussed choosing between `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and the default
config directory in Discord and decided against it, at least for now.

<s>@kubouch also suggested letting users choose between
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and the default config directory if config files
aren't found on startup and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set to a value
different from the default config directory</s>

On Windows and MacOS, if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` variable is set but
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is either empty or doesn't exist *and* the old config
directory is non-empty, Nushell will issue a warning on startup saying
that it won't move files from the old config directory to the new one.
To do this, I had to add a `nu_path::config_dir_old()` function. I
assume that at some point, we will remove the warning message and the
function can be removed too. Alternatively, instead of having that
function there, `main.rs` could directly call `dirs_next::config_dir()`.

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->

When `$env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set to an absolute path, Nushell will use
`$"($env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/nushell"` as its config directory (previously,
this only worked on Linux).

To use `App Data\Roaming` (Windows) or `Library/Application Support`
(MacOS) instead (the old behavior), one can either leave
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` unset or set it to an empty string.

If `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set, but to a non-absolute/invalid path, Nushell
will report an error on startup and use the default config directory
instead:

The documentation will have to be updated to note that Nushell uses

to set `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` to, say, `~/.config/nushell` rather than
`~/.config`, so the documentation could warn about that mistake.

Restructure nu-protocol in more meaningful units (#11917)
This is partially "feng-shui programming" of moving things to new
separate places.

The later commits include "`git blame` tollbooths" by moving out chunks
of code into new files, which requires an extra step to track things
with `git blame`. We can negiotiate if you want to keep particular
things in their original place.

If egregious I tried to add a bit of documentation. If I see something
that is unused/unnecessarily `pub` I will try to remove that.


- Move `nu_protocol::Exportable` to `nu-parser`
- Guess doccomment for `Exportable`
- Move `Unit` enum from `value` to `AST`
- Move engine state `Variable` def into its folder
- Move error-related files in `nu-protocol` subdir
- Move `pipeline_data` module into its own folder
- Move `stream.rs` over into the `pipeline_data` mod
- Move `PipelineMetadata` into its own file
- Doccomment `PipelineMetadata`
- Remove unused `is_leap_year` in `value/mod`
- Note about criminal `type_compatible` helper
- Move duration fmting into new `value/duration.rs`
- Move filesize fmting logic to new `value/filesize`
- Split reexports from standard imports in `value/mod`
- Doccomment trait `CustomValue`
- Polish doccomments and intradoc links

Remove feat extra and include in default (#12140)
# Description
The intended effect of the `extra` feature has been undermined by
introducing the full builds on our release pages and having more
activity on some of the extra commands.

To simplify the feature matrix let's get rid of it and focus our effort
on truly either refining a command to well-specified behavior or
discarding it entirely from the `nu` binary and moving it into plugins.

## Details
- Remove `--features extra` from CI
- Don't explicitly name `extra` in full build wf
- Remove feature extra from build-help scripts
- Update README in `nu-cmd-extra`
- Remove feature `extra`
- Fix previously dead `format pattern` tests
- Relax signature of `to html`
- Fix/ignore `html::test_no_color_flag`
- Remove dead features from `version`
- Refine `to html` type signature

# User-Facing Changes
The commands that were previously only available when building with
`--features extra` will now be available to everyone. This increases the
number of dependencies slightly but has a limited impact on the overall
binary size.

# Tests + Formatting
Some tests that were left in `nu-command` during cratification were dead
because the feature was not passed to `nu-command` and only to
`nu-cmd-lang` for feature-flag mention in `version`.
Those tests have now been either fixed or ignored in one case.

# After Submitting
There may be places in the documentation where we point to `--features
extra` that will now be moot (apart from the generated command help)

Canonicalize config dir (#12136)
It turns out that my previous PR,
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11999, didn't properly
canonicalize `$nu.default-config-dir` in a scenario where
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` (or the equivalent on each platform) was a symlink. To
remedy that, this PR makes `nu_path::config_dir()` return a
canonicalized path. This probably shouldn't break anything (except maybe
tests relying on the old behavior), since the canonical path will be
equivalent to non-canonical paths.

# User-Facing Changes

A user may get a path with symlinks resolved and `..`s replaced where
they previously didn't. I'm not sure where this would happen, though,
and anyway, the canonical path is probably the "correct" thing to
present to the user. We're using `omnipath` to make the path presentable
to the user on Windows, so there's no danger of someone getting an path
with `\\?` there.

# Tests + Formatting

The tests for config files have been updated to run the binary using the
`Director` so that it has access to the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`/`HOME`
environment variables to be able to change the config directory.

Keep plugins persistently running in the background (#12064)
# Description
This PR uses the new plugin protocol to intelligently keep plugin
processes running in the background for further plugin calls.

Running plugins can be seen by running the new `plugin list` command,
and stopped by running the new `plugin stop` command.

This is an enhancement for the performance of plugins, as starting new
plugin processes has overhead, especially for plugins in languages that
take a significant amount of time on startup. It also enables plugins
that have persistent state between commands, making the migration of
features like dataframes and `stor` to plugins possible.

Plugins are automatically stopped by the new plugin garbage collector,
configurable with `$env.config.plugin_gc`:

```nushell
  $env.config.plugin_gc = {
      # Configuration for plugin garbage collection
      default: {
          enabled: true # true to enable stopping of inactive plugins
          stop_after: 10sec # how long to wait after a plugin is inactive to stop it
      }
      plugins: {
          # alternate configuration for specific plugins, by name, for example:
          #
          # gstat: {
          #     enabled: false
          # }
      }
  }
```

If garbage collection is enabled, plugins will be stopped after
`stop_after` passes after they were last active. Plugins are counted as
inactive if they have no running plugin calls. Reading the stream from
the response of a plugin call is still considered to be activity, but if
a plugin holds on to a stream but the call ends without an active
streaming response, it is not counted as active even if it is reading
it. Plugins can explicitly disable the GC as appropriate with
`engine.set_gc_disabled(true)`.

The `version` command now lists plugin names rather than plugin
commands. The list of plugin commands is accessible via `plugin list`.

Recommend doing this together with #12029, because it will likely force
plugin developers to do the right thing with mutability and lead to less
unexpected behavior when running plugins nested / in parallel.

# User-Facing Changes
- new command: `plugin list`
- new command: `plugin stop`
- changed command: `version` (now lists plugin names, rather than
commands)
- new config: `$env.config.plugin_gc`
- Plugins will keep running and be reused, at least for the configured
GC period
- Plugins that used mutable state in weird ways like `inc` did might
misbehave until fixed
- Plugins can disable GC if they need to
- Had to change plugin signature to accept `&EngineInterface` so that
the GC disable feature works. #12029 does this anyway, and I'm expecting
(resolvable) conflicts with that

# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`

Because there is some specific OS behavior required for plugins to not
respond to Ctrl-C directly, I've developed against and tested on both
Linux and Windows to ensure that works properly.

I think this probably needs to be in the book somewhere

Allow for stacks to have parents (#11654)
This is another attempt on #11288 

This allows for a `Stack` to have a parent stack (behind an `Arc`). This
is being added to avoid constant stack copying in REPL code.

Concretely the following changes are included here:
- `Stack` can now have a `parent_stack`, pointing to another stack
- variable lookups can fallback to this parent stack (env vars and
everything else is still copied)
- REPL code has been reworked so that we use parenting rather than
cloning. A REPL-code-specific trait helps to ensure that we do not
accidentally trigger a full clone of the main stack
- A property test has been added to make sure that parenting "looks the
same" as cloning for consumers of `Stack` objects

This PR adds a new evaluator path with callbacks to a mutable trait
object implementing a Debugger trait. The trait object can do anything,
e.g., profiling, code coverage, step debugging. Currently,
entering/leaving a block and a pipeline element is marked with
callbacks, but more callbacks can be added as necessary. Not all
callbacks need to be used by all debuggers; unused ones are simply empty
calls. A simple profiler is implemented as a proof of concept.

The debugging support is implementing by making `eval_xxx()` functions
generic depending on whether we're debugging or not. This has zero
computational overhead, but makes the binary slightly larger (see
benchmarks below). `eval_xxx()` variants called from commands (like
`eval_block_with_early_return()` in `each`) are chosen with a dynamic
dispatch for two reasons: to not grow the binary size due to duplicating
the code of many commands, and for the fact that it isn't possible
because it would make Command trait objects object-unsafe.

In the future, I hope it will be possible to allow plugin callbacks such
that users would be able to implement their profiler plugins instead of
having to recompile Nushell.
[DAP](https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/) would also be
interesting to explore.

Try `help debug profile`.

## Screenshots

Basic output:

![profiler_new](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/25571562/418b9df0-b659-4dcb-b023-2d5fcef2c865)

To profile with more granularity, increase the profiler depth (you'll
see that repeated `is-windows` calls take a large chunk of total time,
making it a good candidate for optimizing):

![profiler_new_m3](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/25571562/636d756d-5d56-460c-a372-14716f65f37f)

## Benchmarks

### Binary size

Binary size increase vs. main: **+40360 bytes**. _(Both built with
`--release --features=extra,dataframe`.)_

### Time

```nushell
# bench_debug.nu
use std bench

let test = {
    1..100
    | each {
        ls | each {|row| $row.name | str length }
    }
    | flatten
    | math avg
}

print 'debug:'
let res2 = bench { debug profile $test } --pretty
print $res2
```

```nushell
# bench_nodebug.nu
use std bench

let test = {
    1..100
    | each {
        ls | each {|row| $row.name | str length }
    }
    | flatten
    | math avg
}

print 'no debug:'
let res1 = bench { do $test } --pretty
print $res1
```

`cargo run --release -- bench_debug.nu` is consistently 1--2 ms slower
than `cargo run --release -- bench_nodebug.nu` due to the collection
overhead + gathering the report. This is expected. When gathering more
stuff, the overhead is obviously higher.

`cargo run --release -- bench_nodebug.nu` vs. `nu bench_nodebug.nu` I
didn't measure any difference. Both benchmarks report times between 97
and 103 ms randomly, without one being consistently higher than the
other. This suggests that at least in this particular case, when not
running any debugger, there is no runtime overhead.

## API changes

This PR adds a generic parameter to all `eval_xxx` functions that forces
you to specify whether you use the debugger. You can resolve it in two
ways:
* Use a provided helper that will figure it out for you. If you wanted
to use `eval_block(&engine_state, ...)`, call `let eval_block =
get_eval_block(&engine_state); eval_block(&engine_state, ...)`
* If you know you're in an evaluation path that doesn't need debugger
support, call `eval_block::<WithoutDebug>(&engine_state, ...)` (this is
the case of hooks, for example).

I tried to add more explanation in the docstring of `debugger_trait.rs`.

## TODO

- [x] Better profiler output to reduce spam of iterative commands like
`each`
- [x] Resolve `TODO: DEBUG` comments
- [x] Resolve unwraps
- [x] Add doc comments
- [x] Add usage and extra usage for `debug profile`, explaining all
columns

Fix: lex now throws error on unbalanced closing parentheses (issue #11982) (#12098)
- Fixes issue #11982 

# Description
Expressions with unbalanced parenthesis [excess closing ')' parenthesis]
will throw an error instead of interpreting ')' as a string.

Solved he same way as closing braces '}' are handled.

# User-Facing Changes
- Trailing closing parentheses ')' which do not match the number of
opening parentheses '(' will lead to a parse error.
- From what I have found in the documentation this is the intended
behavior, thus no documentation has been updated on my part

# Tests + Formatting
- Two tests added in src/tests/test_parser.rs
- All previous tests are still passing
- cargo fmt, clippy and test have been run

Unable to get the following command run
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path

I've added a couple of tests to check that even if the config folder
and/or any of the config files within are symlinks, the `$nu.*`
variables are properly canonicalized. These tests unfortunately only run
on Linux and MacOS, because I couldn't figure out how to change the
config directory on Windows. Also, given that they involve creating
files, I'm not sure if they're excessive, so I could remove one or two
of them.

Glob: don't allow implicit casting between glob and string (#11992)
# Description
As title, currently on latest main, nushell confused user if it allows
implicit casting between glob and string:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g } 
glob-test $x
```
It always expand the glob although `$x` is defined as a string.
This pr implements a solution from @kubouch :
> We could make it really strict and disallow all autocasting between
globs and strings because that's what's causing the "magic" confusion.
Then, modify all builtins that accept globs to accept oneof(glob,
string) and the rules would be that globs always expand and strings
never expand

# User-Facing Changes
After this pr, user needs to use `into glob` to invoke `glob-test`, if
user pass a string variable:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g } 
glob-test ($x | into glob)
```
Or else nushell will return an error.
```
 3 │ glob-test $x
   ·           ─┬
   ·            ╰── can't convert string to glob

Currently, there's multiple places that look for a config directory, and
each of them has different error messages when it can't be found. This
PR makes a `ConfigDirNotFound` error to standardize the error message
for all of these cases.

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->

Previously, the errors in `create_nu_constant()` would say which config
file Nushell was trying to get when it couldn't find the config
directory. Now it doesn't. However, I think that's fine, given that it
doesn't matter whether it couldn't find the config directory while
looking for `login.nu` or `env.nu`, it only matters that it couldn't
find it.

This is what the error looks like:

Related issue and PR, #11825 #11864 
This improves the signature of `commandline`.

## Before

`commandline` returns different types depending on the flags and an
aurgument.

| command | input | output | description |

|-----------------------------|---------|---------|----------------------------------------|
| `commandline` | nothing | string | get current cursor line |
| `commandline arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor line with
`arg` |
| `commandline --append arg` | nothing | nothing | append `arg` to the
end of cursor line |
| `commandline --insert arg` | nothing | nothing | insert `arg` to the
position of cursor |
| `commandline --replace arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor
line with `arg` |
| `commandline --cursor` | nothing | int | get current cursor position |
| `commandline --cursor pos` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to pos |
| `commandline --cursor-end` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to end |

`help commandline` shows that `commandline` accepts string as pipeline
input, but `commandline` ignores pipeline input.

```
Input/output types:
  ╭───┬─────────┬─────────╮
  │ # │  input  │ output  │
  ├───┼─────────┼─────────┤
  │ 0 │ nothing │ nothing │
  │ 1 │ string  │ string  │
  ╰───┴─────────┴─────────╯
```

671bd08bcd/crates/nu-cli/src/commands/commandline.rs (L70)

This is misleading.

Due to the change #11864 , typecheck does not work well.
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11864#discussion_r1491814054

## After

Separate `commandline` into subcommands so that each subcommands returns
the same type for the same input type.

| command | input | output | description |

|----------------------------------|---------|---------|----------------------------------------|
| `commandline` | nothing | string | get current cursor line |
| `commandline edit arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor line
with `arg` |
| `commandline edit --append arg` | nothing | nothing | append `arg` to
the end of cursor line |
| `commandline edit --insert arg` | nothing | nothing | insert `arg` to
the position of cursor |
| `commandline edit --replace arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the
cursor line with `arg` |
| `commandline get-cursor` | nothing | int | get current cursor position
|
| `commandline set-cursor pos` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to pos |
| `commandline set-cursor --end` | nothing | nothing | set cursor
position to end |

Add Value::coerce_str (#11885)
# 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`.

Name the Value conversion functions more clearly (#11851)
# 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.

Spreading lists automatically when calling externals was deprecated in
0.89 (#11289), and this PR is to remove it in 0.91.

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This

The new error message looks like this:

```
>  ^echo [1 2]
Error: nu:🐚:cannot_pass_list_to_external

  × Lists are not automatically spread when calling external commands
   ╭─[entry #13:1:8]

The old error message didn't say exactly where to put the `...` and
seemed to confuse a lot of people, so hopefully this helps.

Enforce call stack depth limit for all calls (#11729)
# Description
Previously, only direcly-recursive calls were checked for recursion
depth. But most recursive calls in nushell are mutually recursive since
expressions like `for`, `where`, `try` and `do` all execute a separte
block.

def f [] {
    do { f }

Calling `f` would crash nushell with a stack overflow.

I think the only general way to prevent such a stack overflow is to
enforce a maximum call stack depth instead of only disallowing directly
recursive calls.

This commit also moves that logic into `eval_call()` instead of
`eval_block()` because the recursion limit is tracked in the `Stack`,
but not all blocks are evaluated in a new stack. Incrementing the
recursion depth of the caller's stack would permanently increment that
for all future calls.

Fixes #11667

# User-Facing Changes
Any function call can now fail with `recursion_limit_reached` instead of
just directly recursive calls. Mutually-recursive calls no longer crash
nushell.

Fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/11711

Previously, syntax `def a [] (echo 4)` was allowed to parse and then
failed with panic duting eval.

Current error:
```
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch

  × Parse mismatch during operation.

# Tests + Formatting
<!--
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

> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
