ucp: Change error when directory is specified but not recursive (#10609)

# Description
Closes #10537. Basically error message was unhelpful, and this temporary
measure adds back the nice previous nushell error message. Ideally, we
would like to add a more permanent solution mentioned in the issue
[comments](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10537#issuecomment-1743686122),
but since we want to have `ucp` as `cp` on new release, this is hackier
but way simpler so this fix should do it.

Only downside is that now behavior differs from `uutils` in the sense
that:
```
uutils:
> cp a foo/ bar
ls bar
# foo/a

nushell:
>ucp a foo/ bar
# directory error (not copied) ....
```
So, since its non fatal error, uutils copies a, but nushell errors out
with nothing copied. If we go to option 3 mentioned above, then we can
decide what we want to do, and perhaps continue on a non fatal error.

# Tests + Formatting
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.

Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:

- [X] `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting
(`cargo fmt --all` applies these changes)
- [X] `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used`
to check that you're using the standard code style
- [X] `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows
make sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- [X] `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library

> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
> ```
