Make error-message more helpful when user invokes a non-executable file (#13589)
# Description

Fixes Issue #13477 
This adds a check to see if a user is trying to invoke a
(non-executable) file as a command and returns a helpful error if so.
EDIT: this will not work on Windows, and is arguably not relevant there,
because of the different semantics of executables. I think the
equivalent on Windows would be if a user tries to invoke `./foo`, we
should look for `foo.exe` or `foo.bat` in the directory and recommend
that if it exists.

# User-Facing Changes

When a user invokes an unrecognized command that is the path to an
existing file, the error used to say:
`{name} is neither a Nushell built-in or a known external command` 
This PR proposes to change the message to:
`{name} refers to a file that is not executable. Did you forget to to
set execute permissions?`

# Tests + Formatting
Ran cargo fmt, clippy and test on the workspace. 
EDIT: added test asserting the new behavior

Nushell core libraries and plugins

These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.

Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:

  • Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
  • Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.

Plugins are likewise also split into two types:

  • Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
  • Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
