Replace panics with errors in thread spawning (#12040)
# Description
Replace panics with errors in thread spawning.

Also adds `IntoSpanned` trait for easily constructing `Spanned`, and an
implementation of `From<Spanned<std::io::Error>>` for `ShellError`,
which is used to provide context for the error wherever there was a span
conveniently available. In general this should make it more convenient
to do the right thing with `std::io::Error` and always add a span to it
when it's possible to do so.

# User-Facing Changes
Fewer panics!

# Tests + Formatting

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.
