Implement PWD recovery (#12779)
This PR has two parts. The first part is the addition of the
`Stack::set_pwd()` API. It strips trailing slashes from paths for
convenience, but will reject otherwise bad paths, leaving PWD in a good
state. This should reduce the impact of faulty code incorrectly trying
to set PWD.

The second part is implementing a PWD recovery mechanism. PWD can become
bad even when we did nothing wrong. For example, Unix allows you to
remove any directory when another process might still be using it, which
means PWD can just "disappear" under our nose. This PR makes it possible
to use `cd` to reset PWD into a good state. Here's a demonstration:

```sh
mkdir /tmp/foo
cd /tmp/foo

# delete "/tmp/foo" in a subshell, because Nushell is smart and refuse to delete PWD
nu -c 'cd /; rm -r /tmp/foo'

ls          # Error:   × $env.PWD points to a non-existent directory
            # help: Use `cd` to reset $env.PWD into a good state

cd /
pwd         # prints /
```

Also, auto-cd should be working again.

nu-protocol

The nu-protocol crate holds the definitions of structs/traits that are used throughout Nushell. This gives us one way to expose them to many other crates, as well as make these definitions available to each other, without causing mutually recursive dependencies.
