expand custom values on table display (#14760)
# Description

Presently, when custom values are displayed in a table, the entire
object is stringified. e.g., a custom value that encodes a DNS message
gets displayed as:

```
❯ : dns query --timeout 30sec dead10ck.dev
╭───┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ 0 │ {header: {id: 58404, message_type: RESPONSE, op_code: QUERY,        │
│   │ authoritative: false, truncated: false, recursion_desired: true,    │
│   │ recursion_available: true, authentic_data: true, response_code: No  │
│   │ Error, query_count: 1, answer_count: 2, name_server_count: 0,       │
│   │ additional_count: 1}, question: {name: dead10ck.dev., type: AAAA,   │
│   │ class: IN}, answer: [{name: dead10ck.dev., type: AAAA, class: IN,   │
│   │ ttl: 1hr, rdata: 2600:1f18:6af3:9f05:f526:3a1a:611:6b22, proof:     │
│   │ indeterminate}, {name: dead10ck.dev., type: RRSIG, class: IN, ttl:  │
│   │ 1hr, rdata: AAAA ECDSAP256SHA256 2 3600 1736139412 1736128612 54894 │
│   │  dead10ck.dev. HIkACE70hxznmFTJhOZSmm42KpLC6a+qHchszMyhYjqtG6eP6bzc │
│   │ +XYYjC+UKMaf56SlwBwnpF1tetmrDwyUHw==, proof: indeterminate}],       │
│   │ authority: [], additional: [], edns: {rcode_high: 0, version: 0,    │
│   │ flags: {dnssec_ok: true}, max_payload: 1.2 KiB, opts: {}}, size:    │
│   │ 177 B}                                                              │
```

With this change, expansion to a native nushell value happens earlier so
that they get displayed as any other value does.

```
❯ : ./target/debug/nu -c 'dns query --timeout 30sec dead10ck.dev | table --
expand'

This crate contains the majority of our commands

We allow ourselves to move some of the commands in nu-command to nu-cmd-* crates as needed.
