# Description
before 0.83.0, `print` used to allow piping data into it, e.g.
```nushell
"foo" | print
```
instead of 
```nushell
print "foo"
```

this PR enables the `any -> nothing` input / output type to allow this
again.

i've double checked and `print` is essentially the following snippet
```rust
        if !args.is_empty() {
            for arg in args {
                arg.into_pipeline_data()
                    .print(engine_state, stack, no_newline, to_stderr)?;
            }
        } else if !input.is_nothing() {
            input.print(engine_state, stack, no_newline, to_stderr)?;
        }
```
1. the first part is for `print a b c`
2. the second part is for `"foo" | print`

# User-Facing Changes
```nushell
"foo" | print
```
works again
