Support for getting help text from a plugin command (#12243)
# Description
There wasn't really a good way to implement a command group style (e.g.
`from`, `query`, etc.) command in the past that just returns the help
text even if `--help` is not passed. This adds a new engine call that
just does that.

This is actually something I ran into before when developing the dbus
plugin, so it's nice to fix it.

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.
