Change comparison operators to allow nulls (#8617)
Prior to this PR, the less/greater than operators (`<`, `>`, `<=`, `>=`)
would throw an error if either side was null. After this PR, these
operators return null if either side (or both) is null.

### Examples
```bash 
1 < 3       # true
1 < null    # null
null < 3    # null
null < null # null
```

### Motivation

JT [asked the C#
folks](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/615329862395101194/1086137515053957140)
and this is apparently the approach they would choose for comparison
operators if they could start from scratch.

This PR makes `where` more convenient to use on jagged/missing data. For
example, we can now filter on columns that may not be present in every
row:
```
> [{foo: 123} {}] | where foo? > 10
╭───┬─────╮
│ # │ foo │
├───┼─────┤
│ 0 │ 123 │
╰───┴─────╯
```

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.
