Replace raw usize IDs with new types (#13832)
# Description

In this PR I replaced most of the raw usize IDs with
[newtypes](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/generics/new_types.html).
Some other IDs already started using new types and in this PR I did not
want to touch them. To make the implementation less repetitive, I made
use of a generic `Id<T>` with marker structs. If this lands I would try
to move make other IDs also in this pattern.

Also at some places I needed to use `cast`, I'm not sure if the type was
incorrect and therefore casting not needed or if actually different ID
types intermingle sometimes.

# User-Facing Changes

Probably few, if you got a `DeclId` via a function and placed it later
again it will still work.

feat: make ctrlc available to plugins (#13181)
# Description

This PR adds a new method to `EngineInterface`: `register_ctrlc_handler`
which takes a closure to run when the plugin's driving engine receives a
ctrlc-signal. It also adds a mirror of the `signals` attribute from the
main shell `EngineState`.

This is an example of how a plugin which makes a long poll http request
can end the request on ctrlc:
https://github.com/cablehead/nu_plugin_http/blob/main/src/commands/request.rs#L68-L77

To facilitate the feature, a new attribute has been added to
`EngineState`: `ctrlc_handlers`. This is a Vec of closures that will be
run when the engine's process receives a ctrlc signal.

When plugins are added to an `engine_state` during a `merge_delta`, the
engine passes the ctrlc_handlers to the plugin's
`.configure_ctrlc_handler` method, which gives the plugin a chance to
register a handler that sends a ctrlc packet through the
`PluginInterface`, if an instance of the plugin is currently running.

On the plugin side: `EngineInterface` also has a ctrlc_handlers Vec of
closures. Plugin calls can use `register_ctrlc_handler` to register a
closure that will be called in the plugin process when the
PluginInput::Ctrlc command is received.

For future reference these are some alternate places that were
investigated for tying the ctrlc trigger to transmitting a Ctrlc packet
through the `PluginInterface`:

- Directly from `src/signals.rs`: the handler there would need a
reference to the Vec<Arc<RegisteredPlugins>>, which would require us to
wrap the plugins in a Mutex, which we don't want to do.

- have `PersistentPlugin.get_plugin` pass down the engine's
CtrlcHandlers to .get and then to .spawn (if the plugin isn't already
running). Once we have CtrlcHandlers in spawn, we can register a handler
to write directly to PluginInterface. We don't want to double down on
passing engine_state to spawn this way though, as it's unpredictable
because it would depend on whether the plugin has already been spawned
or not.

- pass `ctrlc_handlers` to PersistentPlugin::new so it can store it on
itself so it's available to spawn.

- in `PersistentPlugin.spawn`, create a handler that sends to a clone of
the GC event loop's tx. this has the same issues with regards to how to
get CtrlcHandlers to the spawn method, and is more complicated than a
handler that writes directly to PluginInterface

Fix bad method links in docstrings (#13471)
# Description

Seems like I developed a bit of a bad habit of trying to link

```rust
/// [`.foo()`]
```

in docstrings, and this just doesn't work automatically; you have to do 

```rust
/// [`.foo()`](Self::foo)
```

if you want it to actually link. I think I found and replaced all of
these.

# User-Facing Changes

Just docs.

Remove lazy records (#12682)
# Description
Removes lazy records from the language, following from the reasons
outlined in #12622. Namely, this should make semantics more clear and
will eliminate concerns regarding maintainability.

# User-Facing Changes
- Breaking change: `lazy make` is removed.
- Breaking change: `describe --collect-lazyrecords` flag is removed.
- `sys` and `debug info` now return regular records.

# After Submitting
- Update nushell book if necessary.
- Explore new `sys` and `debug info` APIs to prevent them from taking
too long (e.g., subcommands or taking an optional column/cell-path
argument).

Split the plugin crate (#12563)
# Description

This breaks `nu-plugin` up into four crates:

- `nu-plugin-protocol`: just the type definitions for the protocol, no
I/O. If someone wanted to wire up something more bare metal, maybe for
async I/O, they could use this.
- `nu-plugin-core`: the shared stuff between engine/plugin. Less stable
interface.
- `nu-plugin-engine`: everything required for the engine to talk to
plugins. Less stable interface.
- `nu-plugin`: everything required for the plugin to talk to the engine,
what plugin developers use. Should be the most stable interface.

No changes are made to the interface exposed by `nu-plugin` - it should
all still be there. Re-exports from `nu-plugin-protocol` or
`nu-plugin-core` are used as required. Plugins shouldn't ever have to
use those crates directly.

This should be somewhat faster to compile as `nu-plugin-engine` and
`nu-plugin` can compile in parallel, and the engine doesn't need
`nu-plugin` and plugins don't need `nu-plugin-engine` (except for test
support), so that should reduce what needs to be compiled too.

The only significant change here other than splitting stuff up was to
break the `source` out of `PluginCustomValue` and create a new
`PluginCustomValueWithSource` type that contains that instead. One bonus
of that is we get rid of the option and it's now more type-safe, but it
also means that the logic for that stuff (actually running the plugin
for custom value ops) can live entirely within the `nu-plugin-engine`
crate.

# User-Facing Changes
- New crates.
- Added `local-socket` feature for `nu` to try to make it possible to
compile without that support if needed.
