Reverts nushell/nushell#8310
In anticipation that we may want to revert this PR. I'm starting the
process because of this issue.
This stopped working
```
let-env NU_LIB_DIRS = [
($nu.config-path | path dirname | path join 'scripts')
'C:\Users\username\source\repos\forks\nu_scripts'
($nu.config-path | path dirname)
]
```
You have to do this now instead.
```
const NU_LIB_DIRS = [
'C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\nushell\scripts'
'C:\Users\username\source\repos\forks\nu_scripts'
'C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\nushell'
]
```
In talking with @kubouch, he was saying that the `let-env` version
should keep working. Hopefully it's a small change.
# Description
Allow NU_LIBS_DIR and friends to be const they can be updated within the
same parse pass. This will allow us to remove having multiple config
files eventually.
Small implementation detail: I've changed `call.parser_info` to a
hashmap with string keys, so the information can have names rather than
indices, and we don't have to worry too much about the order in which we
put things into it.
Closes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8422
# User-Facing Changes
In a single file, users can now do stuff like
```
const NU_LIBS_DIR = ['/some/path/here']
source script.nu
```
and the source statement will use the value of NU_LIBS_DIR declared the
line before.
Currently, if there is no `NU_LIBS_DIR` const, then we fallback to using
the value of the `NU_LIBS_DIR` env-var, so there are no breaking changes
(unless someone named a const NU_LIBS_DIR for some reason).

## Summary
This PR lets you use `?` to indicate that a member in a cell path is
optional and Nushell should return `null` if that member cannot be
accessed.
Unlike the previous PR, `?` is now a _postfix_ modifier for cell path
members. A cell path of `.foo?.bar` means that `foo` is optional and
`bar` is not.
`?` does _not_ suppress all errors; it is intended to help in situations
where data has "holes", i.e. the data types are correct but something is
missing. Type mismatches (like trying to do a string path access on a
date) will still fail.
### Record Examples
```bash
{ foo: 123 }.foo # returns 123
{ foo: 123 }.bar # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 } | get bar # errors
{ foo: 123 } | get bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz # errors because `baz` is not present on the result from `bar?`
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz? # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz? # returns null
```
### List Examples
```
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo

```
# Breaking changes
1. Column names with `?` in them now need to be quoted.
2. The `-i`/`--ignore-errors` flag has been removed from `get` and
`select`
1. After this PR, most `get` error handling can be done with `?` and/or
`try`/`catch`.
4. Cell path accesses like this no longer work without a `?`:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b.0
2
```
We had some clever code that was able to recognize that since we only
want row `0`, it's OK if other rows are missing column `b`. I removed
that because it's tricky to maintain, and now that query needs to be
written like:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b?.0
2
```
I think the regression is acceptable for now. I plan to do more work in
the future to enable streaming of cell path accesses, and when that
happens I'll be able to make `.b.0` work again.
# Description
Prevents alias from aliasing itself. It allows a commonly requested
pattern similar to `alias ls = ls -l`.

# Description
This PR adds an alternative alias implementation. Old aliases still work
but you need to use `old-alias` instead of `alias`.
Instead of replacing spans in the original code and re-parsing, which
proved to be extremely error-prone and a constant source of panics, the
new implementation creates a new command that references the old
command. Consider the new alias defined as `alias ll = ls -l`. The
parser creates a new command called `ll` and remembers that it is
actually a `ls` command called with the `-l` flag. Then, when the parser
sees the `ll` command, it will translate it to `ls -l` and passes to it
any parameters that were passed to the call to `ll`. It works quite
similar to how known externals defined with `extern` are implemented.
The new alias implementation should work the same way as the old
aliases, including exporting from modules, referencing both known and
unknown externals. It seems to preserve custom completions and pipeline
metadata. It is quite robust in most cases but there are some rough
edges (see later).

Should use custom command instead:
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/6048
# User-Facing Changes
Since aliases are now basically commands, it has some new implications:
1. `alias spam = "spam"` (requires command call)
* **workaround**: use `alias spam = echo "spam"`
2. `def foo [] { 'foo' }; alias foo = ls -l` (foo defined more than
once)
* **workaround**: use different name (commands also have this
limitation)
4. `alias ls = (ls | sort-by type name -i)`
* **workaround**: Use custom command. _The common issue with this is
that it is currently not easy to pass flags through custom commands and
command referencing itself will lead to stack overflow. Both of these
issues are meant to be addressed._
5. TODO: Help messages, `which` command, `$nu.scope.aliases`, etc.
* Should we treat the aliases as commands or should they be separated
from regular commands?
6. Needs better error message and syntax highlight for recursed alias
(`alias f = f`)
7. Can't create alias with the same name as existing command (`alias ls
= ls -a`)
* Might be possible to add support for it (not 100% sure)
8. Standalone `alias` doesn't list aliases anymore
9. Can't alias parser keywords (e.g., stuff like `alias ou = overlay
use` won't work)
* TODO: Needs a better error message when attempting to do so

# Description
As title, we can't provide examples for plugin commands, this pr would
make it possible
# User-Facing Changes
Take plugin `nu-example-1` as example:
```
❯ nu-example-1 -h
PluginSignature test 1 for plugin. Returns Value::Nothing
Usage:
> nu-example-1 {flags} <a> <b> (opt) ...(rest)
Flags:
-h, --help - Display the help message for this command
-f, --flag - a flag for the signature
-n, --named <String> - named string
Parameters:
a <int>: required integer value
b <string>: required string value
(optional) opt <int>: Optional number
...rest <string>: rest value string
Examples:
running example with an int value and string value
> nu-example-1 3 bb
```
The examples session is newly added.
## Basic idea behind these changes
when nushell query plugin signatures, plugin just returns it's signature
without any examples, so nushell have no idea about the examples of
plugin commands.
To adding the feature, we just making plugin returns it's signature with
examples.
Before:
```
1. get signature
---------------->
Nushell ------------------ Plugin
<-----------------
2. returns Vec<Signature>
```
After:
```
1. get signature
---------------->
Nushell ------------------ Plugin
<-----------------
2. returns Vec<PluginSignature>
```
When writing plugin signature to $nu.plugin-path:
Serialize `<PluginSignature>` rather than `<Signature>`, which would
enable us to serialize examples to `$nu.plugin-path`
## Shortcoming
It's a breaking changes because `Plugin::signature` is changed, and it
requires plugin authors to change their code for new signatures.
Fortunally it should be easy to change, for rust based plugin, we just
need to make a global replace from word `Signature` to word
`PluginSignature` in their plugin project.
Our content of plugin-path is really large, if one plugin have many
examples, it'd results to larger body of $nu.plugin-path, which is not
really scale. A solution would be save register information in other
binary formats rather than `json`. But I think it'd be another story.

Add recursion limit to `def` and `block`.
Summary of this PR , it will detect if `def` call itself or not .
Then execute by using `stack` which I think best choice to use with this
design and core as it is available in all crates and mutable and
calculate the recursion limit on calling `def`.
Set 50 as recursion limit on `Config`.
Add some tests too .

Reverts nushell/nushell#7448
Some surprising behavior in how we do this. For example:
```
〉if (true || false) { print "yes!" } else { print "no!" }
no!
〉if (true or false) { print "yes!" } else { print "no!" }
yes!
```
This means for folks who are using the old `||`, they possibly get the
wrong answer once they upgrade. I don't think we can ship with that as
it will catch too many people by surprise and just make it easier to
write buggy code.
# Description
We got some feedback from folks used to other shells that `try/catch`
isn't quite as convenient as things like `||`. This PR adds `&&` as a
synonym for `;` and `||` as equivalent to what `try/catch` would do.

Adds `&&` and `||` pipeline operators.

# Description
This PR moves the `where` command to a parser keyword. While it still
uses the shape-directed parsing dictated by the signature, we're free to
change the parsing code now to a custom one once we remove the syntax
shapes.
As a side effect, the `where -b` flag was removed and its functionality
has moved to the new `filter` command.
Just FYI, other commands that take row conditions:
- `take until`
- `take while`
- `skip until`
- `skip while`
- `any`
- `all`
We can either move these to the parser as well or make them accept a
closure instead of row condition.

New `filter` command which replaces `where -b` functionality.

The motivation for this stems from #6431 where I've seen crashes due to
invalid slice indexing.
My hope is this will mitigate such senarios

# Description
This PR is a response to the issues raised in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/7087. It consists of two
changes:
* `export-env`, when evaluated in `overlay use`, will see the original
environment. Previously, it would see the environment from previous
overlay activation.
* Added a new `--reload` flag that reloads the overlay. Custom
definitions will be kept but the original definitions and environment
will be reloaded.
This enables a pattern when an overlay is supposed to shadow an existing
environment variable, such as `PROMPT_COMMAND`, but `overlay use` would
keep loading the value from the first activation. You can easily test it
by defining a module
```
module prompt {
export-env {
let-env PROMPT_COMMAND = (date now | into string)
}
}
```
Calling `overlay use prompt` for the first time changes the prompt to
the current time, however, subsequent calls of `overlay use` won't
change the time. That's because overlays, once activated, store their
state so they can be hidden and restored at later time. To force-reload
the environment, use the new flag: Calling `overlay use --reload prompt`
repeatedly now updates the prompt with the current time each time.
# User-Facing Changes
* When calling `overlay use`, if the module has an `export-env` block,
the block will see the environment as it is _before_ the overlay is
activated. Previously, it was _after_.
* A new `overlay use --reload` flag.

This adds new pipeline connectors called out> and err> which redirect either stdout or stderr to a file. You can also use out+err> (or err+out>) to redirect both streams into a file.
This adds support for (limited) mutable variables. Mutable variables are created with mut much the same way immutable variables are made with let.
Mutable variables allow mutation via the assignment operator (=).
❯ mut x = 100
❯ $x = 200
❯ print $x
200
Mutable variables are limited in that they're only tended to be used in the local code block. Trying to capture a local variable will result in an error:
❯ mut x = 123; {|| $x }
Error: nu::parser::expected_keyword (link)
× Capture of mutable variable.
The intent of this limitation is to reduce some of the issues with mutable variables in general: namely they make code that's harder to reason about. By reducing the scope that a mutable variable can be used it, we can help create local reasoning about them.
Mutation can occur with fields as well, as in this case:
❯ mut y = {abc: 123}
❯ $y.abc = 456
❯ $y
On a historical note: mutable variables are something that we resisted for quite a long time, leaning as much as we could on the functional style of pipelines and dataflow. That said, we've watched folks struggle to work with reduce as an approximation for patterns that would be trivial to express with local mutation. With that in mind, we're leaning towards the happy path.
