This PR seeks to generalize the `seq date` command so that it can
receive any duration as an `--increment`. Whereas the current command
can only output a list of dates spaced at least 1 day apart, the new
command can output a list of datetimes that are spaced apart by any
duration.

For example:
```
> seq date --begin-date 2025-01-01 --end-date 2025-01-02 --increment 6hr --output-format "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
╭───┬─────────────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 00:00:00 │
│ 1 │ 2025-01-01 06:00:00 │
│ 2 │ 2025-01-01 12:00:00 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-01 18:00:00 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-02 00:00:00 │
╰───┴─────────────────────╯
```

Note that the default behavior remains unchanged:
```
> seq date --begin-date 2025-01-01 --end-date 2025-01-02
╭───┬────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 1 │ 2025-01-02 │
╰───┴────────────╯
```

The default output format also remains unchanged:
```
> seq date --begin-date 2025-01-01 --end-date 2025-01-02 --increment 6hr
╭───┬────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 │

│ 2 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-02 │
╰───┴────────────╯
```

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->

## Breaking Changes
* The `--increment` argument no longer accepts just an integer and
requires a duration

```
# NEW BEHAVIOR
> seq date --begin-date 2025-01-01 --end-date 2025-01-02 --increment 1

Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch

  × Parse mismatch during operation.
   ╭─[entry #13:1:68]
 1 │ seq date --begin-date 2025-01-01 --end-date 2025-01-02 --increment 1
   ·                                                                    ┬
   ·                                                                    ╰── expected duration with valid units
   ╰────
```

EDIT: Break Change is mitigated. `--increment` accepts either an integer
or duration.

## Bug Fix
* The `--days` argument had an off-by-one error and would print 1 too
many elements in the output. For example,

```
# OLD BEHAVIOR
> seq date -b 2025-01-01 --days 5 --increment 1
╭───┬────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 1 │ 2025-01-02 │
│ 2 │ 2025-01-03 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-04 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-05 │
│ 5 │ 2025-01-06 │ <-- Extra element
╰───┴────────────╯

# NEW BEHAVIOR
> seq date -b 2025-01-01 --days 5 --increment 1day
╭───┬────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 1 │ 2025-01-02 │
│ 2 │ 2025-01-03 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-04 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-05 │
╰───┴────────────╯
```

## New Argument
* A `--periods` argument is introduced to indicate the number of output
elements, regardless of the `--increment` value. Importantly, the
`--days` argument is ignored when `--periods` is set.
```
# NEW BEHAVIOR
> seq date -b 2025-01-01 --days 5 --periods 10 --increment 1day
╭───┬────────────╮
│ 0 │ 2025-01-01 │
│ 1 │ 2025-01-02 │
│ 2 │ 2025-01-03 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-04 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-05 │
│ 5 │ 2025-01-06 │
│ 6 │ 2025-01-07 │
│ 7 │ 2025-01-08 │
│ 8 │ 2025-01-09 │
│ 9 │ 2025-01-10 │
╰───┴────────────╯
```

Note that the `--days` and `--periods` arguments differ in their
functions. The `--periods` value determines the number of elements in
the output that are always spaced `--increment` apart. The `--days`
value determines the bookends `--begin-date` and `--end-date` when only
one is set, though the number of elements may differ based on the
`--increment` value.

```
# NEW BEHAVIOR
> seq date -e 2025-01-01 --days 2 --increment 5hr --output-format "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"

│ 2 │ 2025-01-24 08:25:05 │
│ 3 │ 2025-01-24 13:25:05 │
│ 4 │ 2025-01-24 18:25:05 │

# 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` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use toolkit.nu; toolkit test stdlib"` 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
> ```
-->

I added several examples for each user-facing change in
`generators/seq_date.rs` and some tests in `tests/commands/seq_date.rs`.

# After Submitting
<!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the

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.
