feat(overlay): expose constants with overlay use (#15081)
# Description

`overlay use` now imports constants exported from modules, just like
`use`.

```nushell
# foo.nu
export const a = 1
export const b = 2
```

- `overlay use foo.nu` being equivalent to `use foo.nu *` and exposing
constants `$a = 1` and `$b = 2`
- `overlay use foo.nu -p` being equivalent to `use foo.nu` and exposing
the constant `$foo = {a: 1, b: 2}`

# User-Facing Changes

`overlay use` now imports constants just like `use`.

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.
