FEATURE: add a path add to the standard library (#8303)
# Description
this PR adds the `path add` command to
`crates/nu-utils/standard_library/std.nu`
- this comes from frequent questions over on the discord server, about
how to add directories to the `PATH`
- this is greatly inspired from the [original
`path-add`](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/615253963645911060/1081206660816699402)
from @melMass
- allows to prepend and append a variable number of directories to the
`PATH`
- i've added a description with an example
- i've added tests in `crates/nu-utils/standard_library/tests.nu` that
hopefully covers all the features

# User-Facing Changes
`path add` can now be used from `std.nu`

# Tests + Formatting
the tests pass with
```bash
nu crates/nu-utils/standard_library/tests.nu
```

# After Submitting
```bash
$nothing
```

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.
