fixes the ability to have multiple modifiers on keybindings (#8579)
# Description

This PR fixes a bug that prevented you from having multiple modifiers on
your keybindings.

TODO:
- The docs need to be fixed too
https://www.nushell.sh/book/line_editor.html#keybindings.
(https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io/pull/840)
- I think reedline needs to be changed to show this too since it
provides the list of available modifiers.
(https://github.com/nushell/reedline/pull/559)

Now you can do something like this where `shift` and `alt` are combined
with an underscore.
```
  {
    name: fuzzy_history_fzf
    modifier: shift_alt
    keycode: char_r
    mode: [emacs , vi_normal, vi_insert]
    event: {
blah
}
```
Here's the list of available combinations
```rust
        "control" => KeyModifiers::CONTROL,
        "shift" => KeyModifiers::SHIFT,
        "alt" => KeyModifiers::ALT,
        "none" => KeyModifiers::NONE,
        "shift_alt" | "alt_shift" => KeyModifiers::SHIFT | KeyModifiers::ALT,
        "control_shift" | "shift_control" => KeyModifiers::CONTROL | KeyModifiers::SHIFT,
        "control_alt" | "alt_control" => KeyModifiers::CONTROL | KeyModifiers::ALT,
        "control_alt_shift" | "control_shift_alt" => {
            KeyModifiers::CONTROL | KeyModifiers::ALT | KeyModifiers::SHIFT
        }
```

from ssv --aligned-columns should separate lines by character index instead of byte index (#8558)
# Description

## Symptom
Lines which are input into `from ssv --aligned-columns` are split
incorrectly of they contain utf-8 characters which have the length of
multiple bytes. Notice how the values of the `Bars` column bleeds into
the `Security` column in the following output (the big grey areas are
censored data ;) ):

![before-patch](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17351844/226757737-be7ca493-5c64-4a91-9153-984df515bb8c.png)

## Problem
The function behind `from ssv --aligned-columns` splits lines into
fields by byte index (which is default behavior of str.get(...) in Rust)
instead of character index. If the header row has a different length in
bytes than the remaining table rows, the split is executed incorrectly.

## Solution
The function behind `from ssv --aligned-columns1 now separates lines by
character index instead of byte index. This productes the following
(correct) output (the big grey areas are censored data ;) ):

![after-patch](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17351844/226757850-7acaebf3-2d40-4f85-b76e-64e465254bda.png)

Cell paths: make optional path members short-circuit (#8554)
This is a follow-up to https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/8379 and
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/discussions/8502.

This PR makes it so that the new `?` syntax for marking a path member as
optional short-circuits, as voted on in the
[8502](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/discussions/8502) poll.
Previously, `{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz` would raise an error:

```
> { foo: 123 }.bar?.baz
  × Data cannot be accessed with a cell path
   ╭─[entry #15:1:1]
 1 │ { foo: 123 }.bar?.baz
   ·                   ─┬─
   ·                    ╰── nothing doesn't support cell paths
   ╰────
   ```

Here's what was happening:

1. The `bar?` path member access returns `nothing` because there is no field named `bar` on the record
2. The `baz` path member access fails when trying to access a `baz` field on that `nothing` value

After this change, `{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz` returns `nothing`; the failed `bar?` access immediately returns `nothing` and the `baz` access never runs.

Switch let/let-env family to init with math expressions (#8545)
# Description

This is an experiment to see what switching the `let/let-env` family to
math expressions for initialisers would be like.

# User-Facing Changes

This would require any commands you call from `let x = <command here>`
(and similar family) to call the command in parentheses. `let x = (foo)`
to call `foo`.

Remove once_cell dependency from nu-test-support create. (#8568)
I was looking where we could remove the usage of once-cell dependency.
As for now, I only found one place. Not a terrible improvement, but at
least, it removes a dependency nu-test-support crate.

FEATURE: write better errors for error make and complete the doc (#8511)
# Description
this PR
- refactors `ErrorMake::run` to avoid duplicate branches depending on
the value of `--unspanned`
- completes the examples
1. show a really simple `error make` call, without any command
definition
  2. show a complete error format with all possible fields
3. the command definition but with indentation and slightly better
description
- adds results to the first two examples
- gives meaningful error messages for all known "bad" error formats,
using the span of the error format or the span of `$format.label` to
better explain why the format is bad

# User-Facing Changes
users have now the following help
```bash
Examples:
  Create a simple custom error
  > error make {msg: "my custom error message"}

  Create a more complex custom error
  > error make {
        msg: "my custom error message"
        label: {
            text: "my custom label text"  # not mandatory unless $.label exists
            start: 123  # not mandatory unless $.label.end is set
            end: 456  # not mandatory unless $.label.start is set
        }
    }

  Create a custom error for a custom command that shows the span of the argument
  > def foo [x] {
        let span = (metadata $x).span;
        error make {
            msg: "this is fishy"
            label: {
                text: "fish right here"
                start: $span.start
                end: $span.end
            }
        }
    }
```
and the following error messages when the error format is bad

# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `cargo fmt --all`
- 🟢 `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D
clippy::unwrap_used -A clippy::needless_collect`
- 🔴 `cargo test --workspace`
=> the tests do not pass but they do not pass on latest `main` either =>
i should `cargo clean`, but that's an expensive operation on my
machine...

fix: set repl_buffer_state to the REPL buffer after the `pre_execut… (#8560)
…ion` hook


# Description

Previously when a `executehostcommand` shortcut calls `commandline`, to
get the current command line, it's incorrectly set to the value of
`executehostcommand` `cmd`.

This fixes the regression (due to #8207), so it's correctly set to
what's in the REPL buffer.

FEATURE: add --raw. --tabs and --indent to to nuon as in to json (#8366)
Should close #7255.

# Description
**TL;DR**: this PR adds `--indent <int>`, `--tabs <int>` and `--raw` to
control a bit more the `string` output of `to nuon`, as done in `to
json` already, the goal being to promote the `NUON` format through easy
to read and formatted output `.nuon` files 😋

### outside of `crates/nu-command/src/formats/to/nuon.rs`
as the signature of `value_to_string` has changed, the single call to it
outside of its module definition has been changed to use default values
=> `value_to_string(&value, Span::unknown(), 0, &None)` in
`crates/nu-command/src/filters/uniq.rs`

### changes to `ToNuon` in `crates/nu-command/src/formats/to/nuon.rs`
- the signature now features `--raw`, `--indent <int>` and `--tabs
<int>`
- the structure of the `run` method is inspired from the one in `to
json`
  - we get the values of the arguments
  - we convert the input to a usable `Value`
- depending on whether the user raised `--raw`, `--indent` or `--tabs`,
we call the conversion to `string` with different values of the
indentation, starting at depth 0
- finally, we return `Ok` or a `ShellError::CantConvert` depending on
the conversion result
- some tool functions
- `get_true_indentation` gives the full indentation => `indent` repeated
`depth` times
- `get_true_separators` gives the line and field separators => a `("\n",
"")` when using some formatting or `("", " ")` when converting as pure
string on a single line

the meat of `nuon.rs` is now the `value_to_string` recursive function:
- takes the depth and the indent string
- adds correct newlines, space separators and indentation to the output
- calls itself with the same indent string but `depth + 1` to increase
the indentation by one level
- i used the `nl`, `idt`, `idt_po` (**i**n**d**en**t** **p**lus **o**ne)
and `idt_pt` (**i**n**d**en**t** **p**lus **t**wo) to make the
`format!`s easier to read

# User-Facing Changes
users can now
- control the amount and nature of NUON string output indentation with
  - `--indent <number of " " per level>`
  - `--tabs <number of "\t" per level>` 
- use the previous behaviour of `to nuon` with the `--raw` option
- have new examples with `help to nuon`

> **Note**
> the priority order of the options is the following
> 1. `--raw`
> 2. `--tabs`
> 3. `--indent`
>
> the default is `--indent 2`

# Tests + Formatting
### new tests
- tests involving the string output of `to nuon`, i.e. tests not of the
form `... | to nuon | from nuon ...`, now use the `to nuon --raw`
command => this is the smallest change to have the tests pass, as the
new `to nuon --raw` is equivalent to the old `to nuon`
- in `crates/nu-command/src/formats/to/nuon.rs`, the previous example
has been replaced with three examples
  - `[1 2 3] | to nuon` to show the default behaviour
  - `[1 2 3] | to nuon --raw` to show the not-formatted output
- a more complex example with `{date: 2000-01-01, data: [1 [2 3] 4.56]}
| to nuon`
  - the result values have been defined and the `examples` tests pass
 
### dev
- 🟢 `cargo fmt --all`
- 🟢 `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D
clippy::unwrap_used -A clippy::needless_collect`
- 🟢 `cargo test --workspace` ~~passes but without
`to_nuon_errs_on_closure`~~ fixed in
0b4fad7eff

# After Submitting
the `to nuon` page would have to be regenerated at some point due to the
new tests

Ls symlink fix (#8276)
# Description

Fixes #6706.

I took a look at this issue and it seems that the issue is because the
path is canonicalized and thus derives to the target. I've tested it
locally by checking if the path is a symlink and acting accordingly to
not canonicalize it and it seems fine.

In current release if the target is deleted but the symlink remains and
one `ls`'s it, it throws a `directory not found` error. But with the fix
it still shows the symlink (with red background, indicating missing
target).

The change I've applied only triggers when `ls` is done on a symlink, on
all other counts it should basically do the same as before.

feat: add a command_not_found hook (#8314)
# Description
Add a `command_not_found` function to `$env.config.hooks`. If this
function outputs a string, then it's included in the `help`.

An example hook on *Arch Linux*, to find packages that contain the
binary, looks like:

```nushell
let-env config = {
  # ...
  hooks: {
    command_not_found: {
      |cmd_name| (
        try {
          let pkgs = (pkgfile --binaries --verbose $cmd_name)
          (
            $"(ansi $env.config.color_config.shape_external)($cmd_name)(ansi reset) " +
            $"may be found in the following packages:\n($pkgs)"
          )
        } catch {
          null
        }
      )
    }
    # ...
```

# User-Facing Changes

standard library: use the standard assert and fix test output (#8509)
# Description
## in the `test_dirs` test module
- use the `std assert` function in the `test_dirs` module instead of
`myassert`
- refactor the "test cleaning" in the `clean` command
- allows to clean the tests and then throw a real error in the `catch`
block in case there is an error
- the test still "try"s to `clean` the test directory after the `catch`,
like in a "finally" block
- parse the `catch` error and `error make` a proper one instead of
`debug`ging it => because the `catch` will be triggered as soon as one
error occurs, there will always only be a single error in the tests, so
this does not change the behaviour of failing `dirs` tests!

> **Note**
> i'm not particularly happy with the parsing stage in the `catch`
block.
> however that's the simplest i found to both keep the `try` / `catch`
construct that allows to clean the test directory and have a proper
error at the same time!

## in the global `tests` module
- use `print` instead of `echo` to make sure the log statements show up
during the tests

# User-Facing Changes
```

# Tests + Formatting

- proper log statements
- proper error when a `dirs` error occurs => try with `sd 'assert \(1'

FEATURE: add a pretty output to toolkit check pr (#8416)
when i write a PR, i run the tests and i like to have a pretty output to
make extra clear which one of the tests did run, which one did not, etc,
etc...

this always end up a variation of the template
> - `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

but with emojis and without the descriptions

> - 🟢 `cargo fmt --all`
> - 🔴 `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D
clippy::unwrap_used -A clippy::needless_collect`
> - 🟡 `cargo test --workspace`
>
> and a  (``) when i did not have the time
or the resources to run the check stage

in this PR, i came up with a way to do that automatically with the
`toolkit` introduced in #8152 😋

# Description
this PR
- adds `toolkit::pretty-print-command` to print the command names being
run with backticks and some colors
- adds `toolkit::report` to return a "report" of the PR check stages =>
see `help toolkit check pr`
- adds the `--pretty` option to `toolkit check pr` to return a
list-with-emojis version of the check report, i.e. a *GitHub*-friendly
list to drop in place in the "Tests + Formatting" section
- adds a clear mention to `toolkit check pr --pretty` in the PR template
to make it easily visible to anyone

hope you'll like it, that's not a huge deal but that's my attempt to
encourage developers to show that they run the tests, what stages did
pass and which one did not 😌 👋

the developer can now use `toolkit check pr --pretty` to have a
ready-to-use output for *GitHub*

Add rest and glob support to 'open' (#8506)
# Description

This adds two different features to `open`:
* The ability to pass more than one file to `open`.
* Support for using globs in the filenames

`open` will create a list stream and stream the output if there is more
than one file opened

Examples:

```
open file1.csv file2.csv file3.csv
```

```
open *.nu | where $it =~ "echo"
```

# User-Facing Changes

Multi-file and glob support in `open`. Original `open` functionality
should continue as before.

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.

Restrict closure expression to be something like {|| ...} (#8290)
# Description

As title, closes: #7921 closes: #8273

# User-Facing Changes

when define a closure without pipe, nushell will raise error for now:
```
❯ let x = {ss ss}
Error: nu::parser::closure_missing_pipe

  × Missing || inside closure
   ╭─[entry #2:1:1]

   ·         ───┬───
   ·            ╰── Parsing as a closure, but || is missing
   ╰────
  help: Try add || to the beginning of closure
```

`any`, `each`, `all`, `where` command accepts closure, it forces user
input closure like `{||`, or parse error will returned.
```
❯ {major:2, minor:1, patch:4} | values | each { into string }
Error: nu::parser::closure_missing_pipe

  × Missing || inside closure
   ╭─[entry #4:1:1]
 1 │ {major:2, minor:1, patch:4} | values | each { into string }

   ╰────
  help: Try add || to the beginning of closure
```

`with-env`, `do`, `def`, `try` are special, they still remain the same,
although it says that it accepts a closure, but they don't need to be
written like `{||`, it's more likely a block but can capture variable
outside of scope:
```
❯ def test [input] { echo [0 1 2] | do { do { echo $input } } }; test aaa
aaa
```

Just realize that It's a big breaking change, we need to update config
and scripts...

Allow NU_LIBS_DIR and friends to be const (#8310)
# 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).

Add char --list example to char command docs (#8474)

When using `char`, I somehow missed the `--list` flag (even though it's

redundant to have a usage of the flag in the examples, I suspect that I
may not be alone in needing an extra nudge on getting that info 😄

# User-Facing Changes

parser: Add cell path literal syntax (#8493)
# Description

This adds a new cell path literal syntax for use in any value position,
not just in a context where we expect a cell path.

This can be used to assign to a variable and then later use that
variable as a cell path.

Example:
```
> let cell_path = $.a.b
> {a: {b: 3}} | get $cell_path
3
```
# User-Facing Changes

This adds the syntax `$.a.b` to universally mean the cell path `a.b`,
even in a context that doesn't expect a cell path.

Disable pipeline echo (#8292)
# Description

Change behavior of block evaluation to not print result of intermediate
commands.
Previously result of every but last pipeline in a block was printed to
stdout, and last one was returned

![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17511668/222550110-3f62fbed-432c-4b46-b9b1-4cb45a1f893e.png)
With this change results of intermediate pipelines are discarded after
they finish and the last one is returned as before:

![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17511668/222550346-f1e74f80-f6b6-4aa3-98d6-888ea4cb4915.png)
Now one should use `print` explicitly to print something to stdout

![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17511668/222923955-fda0d77b-41b4-4f91-a80f-12b0a1880c05.png)

**Note, that this behavior is not limited to functions!** The scope of
this change are all blocks. All of the below are executed as blocks and
thus exibited this behavior in the same way:

![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/17511668/222924062-342c15de-4273-4bf5-8b39-fe6e3aa96076.png)

With this change outputs for all types of blocks are cleaned:

# User-Facing Changes

All types of blocks (function bodies, closures, `if` branches, `for` and
`loop` bodies e.t.c.) no longer print result of intermediate pipelines.

Additional flags for commands from csv and from tsv (#8398)
# Description

Resolves issue #8370

Adds the following flags to commands `from csv` and `from tsv`:
- `--flexible`: allow the number of fields in records to be variable
- `-c --comment`: a comment character to ignore lines starting with it
- `-q --quote`: a quote character to ignore separators in strings,
defaults to '\"'
- `-e --escape`: an escape character for strings containing the quote
character

Internally, the `Value` struct has an additional helper function
`as_char` which converts it to a single `char`

# User-Facing Changes

The single quoted string `'\t'` can no longer be used as a parameter for
the flag `--separator '\t'` as it is interpreted as a two-character
string. One needs to use from now on the flag with a double quoted
string like so: `-s "\t"` which correctly interprets the string as a
single `char`.
