remove --column from length command and remove record processing (#10091)
# Description

This PR removes `record` processing from the `length` command. It just
doesn't make sense to try and get the length of a record. This PR also
removes the `--column` parameter. If you want to list or count columns,
you could use `$table | columns` or `$table | columns | length`.

close #10074

and with additional logic in the command for cases like `echo`

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.
