Add more argument types to view ir (#13343)

# Description

Add a few more options to `view ir` for finding blocks, which I found
myself wanting while trying to trace through the generated code.

If we end up adding support for plugins to call commands that are in
scope by name, this will also make it possible for
`nu_plugin_explore_ir` to just step through IR automatically (by passing
the block/decl ids) without exposing too many internals. With that I
could potentially add keys that allow you to step in to closures or
decls with the press of a button, just by calling `view ir --json`
appropriately.

# User-Facing Changes

- `view ir` can now take names of custom commands that are in scope.
- integer arguments are treated as block IDs, which sometimes show up in
IR (closure, block, row condition literals).
- `--decl-id` provided to treat the argument as a decl ID instead, which
is also sometimes necessary to access something that isn't in scope.

The target can be a closure, the name of a custom command, or an internal block
ID. Closure literals within IR dumps often reference the block by ID (e.g.
`closure(3231)`), so this provides an easy way to read the IR of any embedded
closures.
The --decl-id option is provided to use a declaration ID instead, which can be
found on `call` instructions. This is sometimes better than using the name, as
the declaration may not be in scope.
