Fix panic on too few arguments for custom function (#10395)
# Description
Old code was comparing remaining positional arguments with total number
of arguments, where it should've compared remaining positional with
with remaining arguments of any kind. This means that if a function was
given too few arguments, `calculate_end_span` would believe that it
actually had too many arguments, since after parsing the first few
arguments, the number of remaining arguments needed were fewer than the
*total* number of arguments, of which we had used several.

Extracted from #10381

## Bonus

It also improves the error handling on missing positional arguments
before keywords (no longer crashing since #9851). Instead of just giving
the keyword to the parser for the missing positional, we give an
explicit error about a missing positional argument. I would like better
descriptions than "missing var_name" though, but I'm not sure if that's
available without

Fix bits ror/bits rol implementation (#13673)
# Description
`bits rol` and `bits ror` were both undefined for the full byte rotates
and panicked when exceeding the byte rotation range.
`bits ror` further more produced nonsensical results by pulling bits
from the following byte instead of the preceding byte.

Those bugs are now fixed

Change the usage misnomer to "description" (#13598)
# Description
    
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.

Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.

# User-Facing Changes

`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`

Breaking change in the plugin protocol:

In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`

The same rename also takes place for the methods on
`SimplePluginCommand` and `PluginCommand`

Fix bugs and UB in bit shifting ops (#13663)
# Description
Fixes #11267

Shifting by a `shift >= num_bits` is undefined in the underlying
operation. Previously we also had an overflow on negative shifts for the
operators `bit-shl` and `bit-shr`
Furthermore I found a severe bug in the implementation of shifting of
`binary` data with the commands `bits shl` and `bits shr`, this
categorically produced incorrect results with shifts that were not
`shift % 4 == 0`. `bits shr` also was able to produce outputs with
different size to the input if the shift was exceeding the length of the
input data by more than a byte.

# User-Facing Changes
It is now an error trying to shift by more than the available bits with:
- `bit-shl` operator
- `bit-shr` operator
- command `bits shl`
- command `bits shr`

# Tests + Formatting
Added testing for all relevant cases

Add parse error for external commands used in assignment without caret (#13585)
# Description

As per our Wednesday meeting, this adds a parse error when something
that would be parsed as an external call is present at the top level,
unless the head of the external call begins with a caret (to make it
explicit).

I tried to make the error quite descriptive about what should be done.

# User-Facing Changes
These now cause a parse error:

```nushell
$foo = bar
$foo = `bar`
```

These would have been interpreted as strings before this version, but
now they'd be interpreted as external calls. This behavior is consistent
with `let`/`mut` (which is unaffected by this change).

Here is an example of the error:

```
Error:   × External command calls must be explicit in assignments
   ╭─[entry #3:1:8]
 1 │ $foo = bar
   ·        ─┬─
   ·         ╰── add a caret (^) before the command name if you intended to run and capture its output
   ╰────
  help: the parsing of assignments was changed in 0.97.0, and this would have previously been treated as a string.
        Alternatively, quote the string with single or double quotes to avoid it being interpreted as a command name. This
        restriction may be removed in a future release.
```

Tests added to cover the change. Note made about it being temporary.

Make assignment and const consistent with let/mut (#13385)
# Description

This makes assignment operations and `const` behave the same way `let`
and `mut` do, absorbing the rest of the pipeline.

Changes the lexer to be able to recognize assignment operators as a
separate token, and then makes the lite parser continue to push spans
into the same command regardless of any redirections or pipes if an
assignment operator is encountered. Because the pipeline is no longer
split up by the lite parser at this point, it's trivial to just parse
the right hand side as if it were a subexpression not contained within
parentheses.

# User-Facing Changes
Big breaking change. These are all now possible:

```nushell
const path = 'a' | path join 'b'

mut x = 2
$x = random int
$x = [1 2 3] | math sum

$env.FOO = random chars
```

In the past, these would have led to (an attempt at) bare word string
parsing. So while `$env.FOO = bar` would have previously set the
environment variable `FOO` to the string `"bar"`, it now tries to run
the command named `bar`, hence the major breaking change.

However, this is desirable because it is very consistent - if you see
the `=`, you can just assume it absorbs everything else to the right of
it.

# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for the new behaviour. Adjusted some existing tests that
depended on the right hand side of assignments being parsed as
barewords.

Make parsing for unknown args in known externals like normal external calls (#13414)
# Description

This corrects the parsing of unknown arguments provided to known
externals to behave exactly like external arguments passed to normal
external calls.

I've done this by adding a `SyntaxShape::ExternalArgument` which
triggers the same parsing rules.

Because I didn't like how the highlighting looked, I modified the
flattener to emit `ExternalArg` flat shapes for arguments that have that
syntax shape and are plain strings/globs. This is the same behavior that
external calls have.

Aside from passing the tests, I've also checked manually that the
completer seems to work adequately. I can confirm that specified
positional arguments get completion according to their specified type
(including custom completions), and then anything remaining gets
filepath style completion, as you'd expect from an external command.

Thanks to @OJarrisonn for originally finding this issue.

# User-Facing Changes

- Unknown args are now parsed according to their specified syntax shape,
rather than `Any`. This may be a breaking change, though I think it's
extremely unlikely in practice.
- The unspecified arguments of known externals are now highlighted /
flattened identically to normal external arguments, which makes it more
clear how they're being interpreted, and should help the completer
function properly.
- Known externals now have an implicit rest arg if not specified named
`args`, with a syntax shape of `ExternalArgument`.

# Tests + Formatting
Tests added for the new behaviour. Some old tests had to be corrected to
match.

Overhaul $in expressions (#13357)
# Description

This grew quite a bit beyond its original scope, but I've tried to make
`$in` a bit more consistent and easier to work with.

Instead of the parser generating calls to `collect` and creating
closures, this adds `Expr::Collect` which just evaluates in the same
scope and doesn't require any closure.

When `$in` is detected in an expression, it is replaced with a new
variable (also called `$in`) and wrapped in `Expr::Collect`. During
eval, this expression is evaluated directly, with the input and with
that new variable set to the collected value.

Other than being faster and less prone to gotchas, it also makes it
possible to typecheck the output of an expression containing `$in`,
which is nice. This is a breaking change though, because of the lack of
the closure and because now typechecking will actually happen. Also, I
haven't attempted to typecheck the input yet.

The IR generated now just looks like this:

```gas
collect        %in
clone          %tmp, %in
store-variable $in, %tmp
# %out <- ...expression... <- %in
drop-variable  $in
```

(where `$in` is the local variable created for this collection, and not
`IN_VARIABLE_ID`)

which is a lot better than having to create a closure and call `collect
--keep-env`, dealing with all of the capture gathering and allocation
that entails. Ideally we can also detect whether that input is actually
needed, so maybe we don't have to clone, but I haven't tried to do that
yet. Theoretically now that the variable is a unique one every time, it
should be possible to give it a type - I just don't know how to
determine that yet.

On top of that, I've also reworked how `$in` works in pipeline-initial
position. Previously, it was a little bit inconsistent. For example,
this worked:

```nushell
> 3 | do { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }
3
3
```

However, this causes a runtime variable not found error on the second
`$in`:

```nushell
> def foo [] { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }; 3 | foo
Error: nu:🐚:variable_not_found

  × Variable not found
   ╭─[entry #115:1:35]
 1 │ def foo [] { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }; 3 | foo
   ·                                   ─┬─
   ·                                    ╰── variable not found
   ╰────
```

I've fixed this by making the first element `$in` detection *always*
happen at the block level, so if you use `$in` in pipeline-initial
position anywhere in a block, it will collect with an implicit
subexpression around the whole thing, and you can then use that `$in`
more than once. In doing this I also rewrote `parse_pipeline()` and
hopefully it's a bit more straightforward and possibly more efficient
too now.

Finally, I've tried to make `let` and `mut` a lot more straightforward
with how they handle the rest of the pipeline, and using a redirection
with `let`/`mut` now does what you'd expect if you assume that they
consume the whole pipeline - the redirection is just processed as
normal. These both work now:

```nushell
let x = ^foo err> err.txt
let y = ^foo out+err>| str length
```

It was previously possible to accomplish this with a subexpression, but
it just seemed like a weird gotcha that you couldn't do it. Intuitively,
`let` and `mut` just seem to take the whole line.

- closes #13137

# User-Facing Changes
- `$in` will behave more consistently with blocks and closures, since
the entire block is now just wrapped to handle it if it appears in the
first pipeline element
- `$in` no longer creates a closure, so what can be done within an
expression containing `$in` is less restrictive
- `$in` containing expressions are now type checked, rather than just
resulting in `any`. However, `$in` itself is still `any`, so this isn't
quite perfect yet
- Redirections are now allowed in `let` and `mut` and behave pretty much
how you'd expect

Rewrite run_external.rs (#12921)
This PR is a complete rewrite of `run_external.rs`. The main goal of the
rewrite is improving readability, but it also fixes some bugs related to
argument handling and the PATH variable (fixes
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/6011).

I'll discuss some technical details to make reviewing easier.

## Argument handling

Quoting arguments for external commands is hard. Like, *really* hard.
We've had more than a dozen issues and PRs dedicated to quoting
arguments (see Appendix) but the current implementation is still buggy.

Here's a demonstration of the buggy behavior:

```nu
let foo = "'bar'"
^touch $foo            # This creates a file named `bar`, but it should be `'bar'`
^touch ...[ "'bar'" ]  # Same
```

I'll describe how this PR deals with argument handling.

First, we'll introduce the concept of **bare strings**. Bare strings are
**string literals** that are either **unquoted** or **quoted by
backticks** [^1]. Strings within a list literal are NOT considered bare
strings, even if they are unquoted or quoted by backticks.

When a bare string is used as an argument to external process, we need
to perform tilde-expansion, glob-expansion, and inner-quotes-removal, in
that order. "Inner-quotes-removal" means transforming from
`--option="value"` into `--option=value`.

## `.bat` files and CMD built-ins

On Windows, `.bat` files and `.cmd` files are considered executable, but
they need `CMD.exe` as the interpreter. The Rust standard library
supports running `.bat` files directly and will spawn `CMD.exe` under
the hood (see
[documentation](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/process/index.html#windows-argument-splitting)).
However, other extensions are not supported [^2].

Nushell also supports a selected number of CMD built-ins. The problem
with CMD is that it uses a different set of quoting rules. Correctly
quoting for CMD requires using
[Command::raw_arg()](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/os/windows/process/trait.CommandExt.html#tymethod.raw_arg)
and manually quoting CMD special characters, on top of quoting from the
Nushell side. ~~I decided that this is too complex and chose to reject
special characters in CMD built-ins instead [^3]. Hopefully this will
not affact real-world use cases.~~ I've implemented escaping that works
reasonably well.

## `which-support` feature

The `which` crate is now a hard dependency of `nu-command`, making the
`which-support` feature essentially useless. The `which` crate is
already a hard dependency of `nu-cli`, and we should consider removing
the `which-support` feature entirely.

## Appendix

Here's a list of quoting-related issues and PRs in rough chronological
order.

[^1]: The idea that backtick-quoted strings act like bare strings was
introduced by Kubouch and briefly mentioned in [the language
reference](https://www.nushell.sh/lang-guide/chapters/strings_and_text.html#backtick-quotes).

[^2]: The documentation also said "running .bat scripts in this way may
be removed in the future and so should not be relied upon", which is
another reason to move away from this. But again, quoting for CMD is
hard.
