Add IDE support (#8745)
# Description

This adds a set of new flags on the `nu` binary intended for use in
IDEs. Here is the set of supported functionality so far:

* goto-def - go to the definition of a variable or custom command
* type hints - see the inferred type of variables
* check - see the errors in the document (currently only one error is
supported)
* hover - get information about the variable or custom command
* complete - get a completion list at the current position

# User-Facing Changes

No changes to the REPL experience. This only impacts the IDE scenario.

# 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 -A
clippy::needless_collect` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
- `cargo run -- crates/nu-utils/standard_library/tests.nu` 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
> ```

# After Submitting

If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.
