This PR just tidies up some tests by removing unused code:
1. If the filesystem is not touched, don't use the filesystem
playground/sandbox
2. If the filesystem is not touched, don't specify the `cwd`
3. If the command is short, don't bother wrapping it in `pipeline()`
4. If the command doesn't have quotes, don't bother with a `r#"..."#`
raw string
Part of #8670.
# Description
Currently, all four of these commands return a (rather-confusing)
spanless error when passed an empty list:
```
> [] | sort
Error:
× no values to work with
help: no values to work with
```
This PR changes these commands to always output `[]` if the input is
`[]`.
```
> [] | sort
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
> [] | uniq-by foo
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
```
I'm not sure what the original logic was here, but in the case of `sort`
and `uniq`, I think the current behavior is straightforwardly wrong.
`sort-by` and `uniq-by` are a bit more complicated, since they currently
try to perform some validation that the specified column name is present
in the input (see #8667 for problems with this validation, where a
possible outcome is removing the validation entirely). When passed `[]`,
it's not possible to do any validation because there are no records.
This opens up the possibility for situations like the following:
```
> [[foo]; [5] [6]] | where foo < 3 | sort-by bar
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
```
I think there's a strong argument that `[]` is the best output for these
commands as well, since it makes pipelines like `$table | filter
$condition | sort-by $column` more predictable. Currently, this pipeline
will throw an error if `filter` evaluates to `[]`, but work fine
otherwise. This makes it difficult to write reliable code, especially
since users are not likely to encounter the `filter -> []` case in
testing (issue #5957). The only workaround is to insert manual checks
for an empty result. IMO, this is significantly worse than the "you can
typo a column name without getting an error" problem shown above.
Other commands that take column arguments (`get`, `select`, `rename`,
etc) already have `[] -> []`, so there's existing precedent for this
behavior.
The core question here is "what columns does `[]` have"? The current
behavior of `sort-by` is "no columns", while the current behavior of
`select` is "all possible columns". Both answers lead to accepting some
likely-buggy code without throwing on error, but in order to do better
here we would need something like `Value::Table` that tracks columns on
empty tables.
If other people disagree with this logic, I'm happy to split out the
`sort-by` and `uniq-by` changes into another PR.
# User-Facing Changes
`sort`, `uniq`, `sort-by`, and `uniq-by` now return `[]` instead of
throwing an error when input is `[]`.
# After Submitting
> If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.
The existing behavior was not documented, and the new behavior is what
you would expect by default, so I don't think we need to update
documentation.

Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass

# Description
`uniq -i` does not convert output strings to lowercase.
Also, `uniq -i` did not ignore case in strings below the first level of
Tables and Records. Now all strings case are ignored for all children
Values for tables, Records, and List.
Fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/7192
# Tests + Formatting
About the issue https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/7192, the
output will be:
```
〉[AAA BBB CCC] | uniq -i
╭───┬─────╮
│ 0 │ AAA │
│ 1 │ BBB │
│ 2 │ CCC │
╰───┴─────╯
```
About ignoring case for all children string, I expect this to be true:
```
([[origin, people];
[World, (
[[name, meal];
['Geremias', {plate: 'bitoque', carbs: 100}]
]
)],
[World, (
[[name, meal];
['Martin', {plate: 'bitoque', carbs: 100}]
]
)],
[World, (
[[name, meal];
['Geremias', {plate: 'Bitoque', carbs: 100}]
]
)],
] | uniq -i
) == ([[origin, people];
[World, (
[[name, meal];
['Geremias', {plate: 'bitoque', carbs: 100}]
]
)],
[World, (
[[name, meal];
['Martin', {plate: 'bitoque', carbs: 100}]
]
)]
])
```
# Description
While trying to add a new `uniq-by` command I refactored the `uniq`
command code to understand it and try to reuse. I think this is more
compact and easier to understand.
The part that I think it's a little confusing in this refactor is the
conditions inside `.filters()`, for example: `!flag_show_repeated ||
(value.1 > 1)`. I could use `if (flag_show_repeated) {value.1 > 1} else
{true}` but it is more verbose, what do you think?
PS: Not sure if you like this kind of PR, sorry if not.
# Tests + Formatting
I also added a test where the `uniq` has a table as input.
* update docs to refer to length instead of count
* rename count to length
* change all occurrences of 'count' to 'length' in tests
* format length command
* move commands, futures.rs, script.rs, utils
* move over maybe_print_errors
* add nu_command crate references to nu_cli
* in commands.rs open up to pub mod from pub(crate)
* nu-cli, nu-command, and nu tests are now passing
* cargo fmt
* clean up nu-cli/src/prelude.rs
* code cleanup
* for some reason lex.rs was not formatted, may be causing my error
* remove mod completion from lib.rs which was not being used along with quickcheck macros
* add in allow unused imports
* comment out one failing external test; comment out one failing internal test
* revert commenting out failing tests; something else might be going on; someone with a windows machine should check and see what is going on with these failing windows tests
* Update Cargo.toml
Extend the optional features to nu-command
