Related to #11928 - `tee --stderr` doesn't really work as expected
without it

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

changes.

Print stderr streams to stderr in `pipeline_data::print_if_stream()`

This corrects unexpected behavior if a stream from an external program
is transformed while still preserving its stderr output. Before this
change, that output is just drained and discarded. Worse, it's drained
to a buffer, which could be really slow and memory hungry if there's a
lot of output on stderr.

This is needed to make `tee --stderr` function in a non-surprising way.
See #11928

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

A script that was erroneously not producing stderr output before might
now, but I can't think of a lot of examples of an external stream being
transformed without being converted.

# 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
> ```

nu-protocol

The nu-protocol crate holds the definitions of structs/traits that are used throughout Nushell. This gives us one way to expose them to many other crates, as well as make these definitions available to each other, without causing mutually recursive dependencies.
