This restores a basic version of the `post` command.
Some source types have been omitted from this first take.
I copied from `fetch` and from `post`@0.40.0.
Part of #4356
* Fix failing pipeline()
The `skip(1)` was there likely to remove the welcome message.
* Fix typo
* Fix nu! test macro to enter cwd correctly
Nushell's current working directory is determined primarily by the PWD
environment variable.
* Add `date format --list`, and make format string optional (providing default)
* Make DRY
`into datetime --list` now uses `generate_strfttime_list` from `date format --list`
* refactor strftime to use current datetime
* Fix formatting of specification descriptions
Fixes issues caused when copying directly from docs.rs
* Change default format to rfc2822
Perhaps to make it more DRY, functions from `into datetime` can be used. However, currently `into datetime` is a bit tricky to use as it needs a separate time zone argument.
* Tweak in-shell docs to match modified behavior
* Show %#z format specifier in `into datetime --list` only
* cargo fmt
* Satisfy clippy
* Add different features combinations
* Specify styles manually
* Fix args
* Fix typo
* Let other CI jobs finish if one fails
* Fix unused symbols without plugin feature
* Put "which" tests behind "which" feature
* Add Python virtualenv job
* Oops forgot git command
* Install Nushell in virtualenv tests
* Add names to steps; Test v.env in separate step
* cd into virtualenv
* Do not run on Python 2.7
* Build Nushell after formatting and clippy checks
* Add alias interning
Now, AliasId is used to reference aliases stored in EngineState, similar
to decls, blocks, etc.
* Fix wrong message
* Fix using decl instead of alias
* Extend also alias id visibility
* Merge also aliases from delta
* Add alias hiding code
Does not work yet but passes tests at least.
* Fix wrong alias lookup and visibility appending
* Add hide alias tests
* Fmt & Clippy
* Fix random clippy warnings in "which" command
* Fix "index out of bounds" when input to group-by is empty #4369
* Fix formatting #4369
* Adds test for empty input

For the width calculations for table layout the `strip_ansi` function
has to be called frequently. By checking for the ASCII control chars
(0x00 to 0x1f) except `\n` that are stripped by `strip_ansi_escapes` the number of
necessary allocations can be reduced significantly for the simple case
of text not containing ANSI escapes.
**Benchmark:**
```
nu -c "for i in 0..1000 { ls } | flatten | table"
```
**Allocation reduction**
Running on the nushell repo root as the directory, this change reduces the
allocation volume by approximately 400 MB
(Measured run via KDE heaptrack)
**Speed improvement to output**
Measured via `/usr/bin/time -v`
