Add custom datetime format through strftime strings (#9500)
- improves usability of datetime's in displayed text
- 
# Description
Creates a config point for specifying long / short date time formats.
Defaults to humanized as we have today.

Provides for adding strftime formats into config.nu such as:
```nu
  datetime_format: {
    normal: "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
    table: "%Y-%m-%d"
  }
```

Example:
```bash
> $env.config.datetime_format                                                                                                                         
┏━━━━━━━━┳━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
┃ normal ┃ %a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z ┃
┃ table  ┃ %m/%d/%y %I:%M:%S%p      ┃
┗━━━━━━━━┻━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
> let a = (date now)                                                                                                                                  
> echo $a

# User-Facing Changes
Any place converting a datetime to a user displayed value should be
impacted.

# Tests + Formatting

- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect -A clippy::result_large_err` Done
- `cargo test --workspace` Done 
- `cargo run -- crates/nu-std/tests/run.nu` Not done - doesn't seem to
work

nu-protocol

The nu-protocol crate holds the definitions of structs/traits that are used throughout Nushell. This gives us one way to expose them to many other crates, as well as make these definitions available to each other, without causing mutually recursive dependencies.
