# Description
Our `ShellError` at the moment has a `std::mem::size_of<ShellError>` of
136 bytes (on AMD64). As a result `Value` directly storing the struct
also required 136 bytes (thanks to alignment requirements).
This change stores the `Value::Error` `ShellError` on the heap.
Pro:
- Value now needs just 80 bytes
- Should be 1 cacheline less (still at least 2 cachelines)
Con:
- More small heap allocations when dealing with `Value::Error`
- More heap fragmentation
- Potential for additional required memcopies
# Further code changes
Includes a small refactor of `try` due to a type mismatch in its large
match.
# User-Facing Changes
None for regular users.
Plugin authors may have to update their matches on `Value` if they use
`nu-protocol`
Needs benchmarking to see if there is a benefit in real world workloads.
**Update** small improvements in runtime for workloads with high volume
of values. Significant reduction in maximum resident set size, when many
values are held in memory.

# Description
The `ShellError` enum at the moment is kind of messy.
Many variants are basic tuple structs where you always have to reference
the implementation with its macro invocation to know which field serves
which purpose.
Furthermore we have both variants that are kind of redundant or either
overly broad to be useful for the user to match on or overly specific
with few uses.
So I set out to start fixing the lacking documentation and naming to
make it feasible to critically review the individual usages and fix
those.
Furthermore we can decide to join or split up variants that don't seem
to be fit for purpose.
# Call to action
**Everyone:** Feel free to add review comments if you spot inconsistent
use of `ShellError` variants.

# Tests + Formatting
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass

# Description
From nushell 0.8 philosophy:
https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io/blob/main/contributor-book/philosophy_0_80.md#core-categories
> The following categories should be moved to plugins:
Uncommon format support
So this pr is trying to move following commands to plugin:
- [X] from eml
- [x] from ics
- [x] from ini
- [x] from vcf
And we can have a new plugin handles for these formatting, currently
it's implemented here:
https://github.com/WindSoilder/nu_plugin_format
The command usage should be the same to original command.
If it's ok, the plugin can support more formats like
[parquet](https://github.com/fdncred/nu_plugin_from_parquet), or [EDN
format](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/6415), or something
else.
Just create a draft pr to show what's the blueprint looks like, and is
it a good direction to move forward?
