Klapptnot c2622589ef fix quotation rules (#16089)
# Description
This script as example for demonstration
```nushell
def miku [] { print "Hiii world! 初音ミクはみんなのことが大好きだよ!" }

def main [leek: int, fn: closure] {
  print $"Miku has ($leek) leeks 🩵"
  do $fn
}
```
---

`escape_for_string_arg` quoting strings misses, where `|` and `;` did
split the command into 2+ commands
```console
~:►  nu ./miku.nu '32' '{miku}'
Miku has 32 leeks 🩵
Hiii world! 初音ミクはみんなのことが大好きだよ!
~:►  nu ./miku.nu '32' '{miku};ls|' where type == dir 
Miku has 32 leeks 🩵
Hiii world! 初音ミクはみんなのことが大好きだよ!

# User-Facing Changes

This adjustment won't need a change, aside from clarifying the following
behavior, which is unintuitive and potentially ambiguous

```console
~:►  nu ./miku.nu '32' {miku}
Miku has 32 leeks 🩵
Hiii world! 初音ミクはみんなのことが大好きだよ!
~:►  nu ./miku.nu '32' { miku }
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch

  × Parse mismatch during operation.
   ╭─[<commandline>:1:9]
 1 │ main 32 "{ miku }"
   ·         ─────┬────
   ·              ╰── expected block, closure or record
   ╰────

~:►  nu ./miku.nu '32' '{' miku '}'
Miku has 32 leeks 🩵
Hiii world! 初音ミクはみんなのことが大好きだよ!

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.
