Add comment explaining background thread usage for plugin calls (#7878) 
~~I happened to be reviewing our uses of `thread::spawn()` and came to
the conclusion that we're spawning a thread unnecessarily for plugin
calls. We were basically doing this:~~

~~1. Spawn a background thread to send data to the plugin over stdin~~
~~2. Immediately do a blocking wait for the plugin's response~~

~~As far as I can tell, there's no point in spawning a thread for 1 (and
it may harm error handling) given that we're blocking right away for the
response.~~

**Update:** the logic is correct, as confirmed by @WindSoilder

I've added a comment explaining the thread usage.

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.
