* feat: spawn the executables directly if possible This pull request changes nu-command so that it spawns the process directly if: - They are a `.exe` on Windows - They are not a `.sh` or `.bash` on not windows. Benefits: - As I explained in [this comment](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/3898#issuecomment-894000812), this is another step towards making Nushell a standalone shell, that doesn't need to shell out unless it is running a script for a particular shell (cmd, sh, ps1, etc.). - Fixes the bug with multiline strings - Better performance due to direct spawning. For example, this script shows ~20 ms less latency. After: ```nu C:\> benchmark { node -e 'console.log("sssss")' } ───┬────────────────── # │ real time ───┼────────────────── 0 │ 63ms 921us 600ns ───┴────────────────── ``` Before ```nu C:\> benchmark { node -e 'console.log("sssss")' } ───┬────────────────── # │ real time ───┼────────────────── 0 │ 79ms 136us 800ns ───┴────────────────── ``` Fixes #3898 * fix: make which dependency optional Also fixes clippy warnings * refactor: refactor spawn_exe, spawn_cmd, spawn_sh, and spawn_any * fix: use which feature instead of which-support * fix: use which_in to use the cwd of nu * fix: use case insensitive comparison of the extensions Sometimes the case of the extension is uppercased by the "which_in" function Also use unix instead of not windows. Some os might not have sh support
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 differnt capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
