Remove serde derive for ShellError, replace via LabeledError (#12319)
# Description

This changes the interface for plugins to always represent errors as
`LabeledError`s. This is good for altlang plugins, as it would suck for
them to have to implement and track `ShellError`. We save a lot of
generated code from the `ShellError` serde impl too, so `nu` and plugins
get to have a smaller binary size.

Reduces the release binary size by 1.2 MiB on my build configuration.

# User-Facing Changes

- Changes plugin protocol. `ShellError` no longer serialized.
- `ShellError` serialize output is different
- `ShellError` no longer deserializes to exactly the same value as
serialized

# Tests + Formatting

- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`

# After Submitting

- [ ] Document in plugin protocol reference
