remove profiling from nushell's hot loop (#10325)
# Description

This removes pipeline element profiling. This could be a useful feature,
but pipeline elements are going to be the most sensitive to in terms of
performance, as `eval_block` and how pipelines are built is one of the
hot loops inside of the eval engine.

# User-Facing Changes

Removes pipeline element profiling.

rename the types with spaces in them to use - (#9929)
# Description
before this PR,
```nushell
> $.a.b | describe
cell path
```
which feels inconsistent with the `cell-path` type annotation, like in
```nushell
> def foo [x: cell-path] { $x | describe }; foo $.a.b
cell path
```

this PR changes the name of the "cell path" type from `cell path` to
`cell-path`

# User-Facing Changes
`cell path` is now `cell-path` in the output of `describe`.
this might be a breaking change in some scripts.

same goes with
- `list stream` -> `list-stream`
- `match pattern` -> `match-pattern`

# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
-  `toolkit test`
-  `toolkit test stdlib`

this PR adds a new `cell_path_type` test to make sure it stays equal to
`cell-path` in the future.

treat path contains '?' as pattern (#10142)
Fix https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10136

# Description
Current nushell only handle path containing '*' as match pattern and
treat '?' as just normal path.
This pr makes path containing '?' is also processed as pattern.

🔴 **Concerns: Need to design/comfirm a consistent rule to handle
dirs/files with '?' in their names.**

Currently:

- if no dir has exactly same name with pattern, it will print the list
of matched directories
- if pattern exactly matches an empty dir's name, it will just print the
empty dir's content ( i.e. `[]`)
- if pattern exactly matches an dir's name, it will perform pattern
match and print all the dir contains

e.g.
```bash
mkdir src
ls s?c 
```

| name | type | size   | modified                                      |
| ---- | ---- | ------ | --------------------------------------------- |
| src  | dir  | 1.1 KB | Tue, 29 Aug 2023 07:39:41 +0900 (9 hours ago) |

-----------

```bash
mkdir src
mkdir scc
mkdir scs
ls s?c
```

| name | type | size | modified |
| ---- | ---- | ------ |
------------------------------------------------ |
| scc | dir | 64 B | Tue, 29 Aug 2023 16:55:31 +0900 (14 seconds ago) |
| src | dir | 1.1 KB | Tue, 29 Aug 2023 07:39:41 +0900 (9 hours ago) |

-----------

```bash
mkdir  s?c
ls s?c
```

print empty (i.e. ls of dir `s?c`)

-----------

```bash
mkdir -p  s?c/test
ls s?c
```
|name|type|size|modified|
|-|-|-|-|

Move Value to helpers, separate span call (#10121)
# Description

As part of the refactor to split spans off of Value, this moves to using
helper functions to create values, and using `.span()` instead of
matching span out of Value directly.

Hoping to get a few more helping hands to finish this, as there are a
lot of commands to update :)

Spanned Value step 1: span all value cases (#10042)
# Description

This doesn't really do much that the user could see, but it helps get us
ready to do the steps of the refactor to split the span off of Value, so
that values can be spanless. This allows us to have top-level values
that can hold both a Value and a Span, without requiring that all values
have them.

We expect to see significant memory reduction by removing so many
unnecessary spans from values. For example, a table of 100,000 rows and
5 columns would have a savings of ~8megs in just spans that are almost
always duplicated.

Create Record type (#10103)
# Description
This PR creates a new `Record` type to reduce duplicate code and
possibly bugs as well. (This is an edited version of #9648.)
- `Record` implements `FromIterator` and `IntoIterator` and so can be
iterated over or collected into. For example, this helps with
conversions to and from (hash)maps. (Also, no more
`cols.iter().zip(vals)`!)
- `Record` has a `push(col, val)` function to help insure that the
number of columns is equal to the number of values. I caught a few
potential bugs thanks to this (e.g. in the `ls` command).
- Finally, this PR also adds a `record!` macro that helps simplify
record creation. It is used like so:
   ```rust
   record! {
       "key1" => some_value,
       "key2" => Value::string("text", span),
       "key3" => Value::int(optional_int.unwrap_or(0), span),
       "key4" => Value::bool(config.setting, span),
   }
   ```
Since macros hinder formatting, etc., the right hand side values should
be relatively short and sweet like the examples above.

Where possible, prefer `record!` or `.collect()` on an iterator instead
of multiple `Record::push`s, since the first two automatically set the
record capacity and do less work overall.

# User-Facing Changes
Besides the changes in `nu-protocol` the only other breaking changes are
to `nu-table::{ExpandedTable::build_map, JustTable::kv_table}`.

https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9773 introduced constants to
modules and allowed to export them, but only within one level. This PR:
* allows recursive exporting of constants from all submodules
* fixes submodule imports in a list import pattern
* makes sure exported constants are actual constants

Should unblock https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9678

### Example:
```nushell
module spam {
    export module eggs {
        export module bacon {
            export const viking = 'eats'
        }
    }
}

use spam 
print $spam.eggs.bacon.viking  # prints 'eats'

use spam [eggs]
print $eggs.bacon.viking  # prints 'eats'

use spam eggs bacon viking
print $viking  # prints 'eats'
```

### Limitation 1:

Considering the above `spam` module, attempting to get `eggs bacon` from
`spam` module doesn't work directly:
```nushell
use spam [ eggs bacon ]  # attempts to load `eggs`, then `bacon`
use spam [ "eggs bacon" ]  # obviously wrong name for a constant, but doesn't work also for commands
```

Workaround (for example):
```nushell
use spam eggs
use eggs [ bacon ]

print $bacon.viking  # prints 'eats'
```

I'm thinking I'll just leave it in, as you can easily work around this.
It is also a limitation of the import pattern in general, not just
constants.

### Limitation 2:

`overlay use` successfully imports the constants, but `overlay hide`
does not hide them, even though it seems to hide normal variables
successfully. This needs more investigation.

# Description
In the past we named the process of completely removing a command and
providing a basic error message pointing to the new alternative
"deprecation".

But this doesn't match the expectation of most users that have seen
deprecation _warnings_ that alert to either impending removal or
discouraged use after a stability promise.

Rename main to script name when running scripts (#9948)
# Description

This PR does three related changes:

* Keeps the originally declared name in help outputs.
* Updates the name of the commands called `main` in the user script to
the name of the script.
* Fixes the source of signature information in multiple places. This
allows scripts to have more complete help output.

Combined, the above allow the user to see the script name in the help
output of scripts, like so:


![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/547158/741d192c-0a39-45a7-8f36-3a0dc8eeae2b)

NOTE: You still declare and call the definition `main`, so from inside
the script `main` is still the correct name. But multiple folks agreed
that seeing `main` in the script help was confusing, so this PR changes
that.

# User-Facing Changes

One potential minor breaking change is that module renames will be shown
as their originally defined name rather than the renamed name. I believe
this to be a better default.

Relative: #8248 

After this pr, user can define const variable inside a module.

![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/22256154/e3e03e56-c4b5-4144-a944-d1b20bec1cbd)

And user can export const variables, the following screenshot shows how
it works (it follows
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8248#issuecomment-1637442612):

![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/22256154/b2c14760-3f27-41cc-af77-af70a4367f2a)

## About the change
1. To make module support const, we need to change `parse_module_block`
to support `const` keyword.
2. To suport export `const`, we need to make module tracking variables,
so we add `variables` attribute to `Module`
3. During eval, the const variable may not exists in `stack`, because we
don't eval `const` when we define a module, so we need to find variables
which are already registered in `engine_state`

## One more thing to note about the const value.
Consider the following code
```
module foo { const b = 3; export def bar [] { $b } }
use foo bar
const b = 4;
bar
```
The result will be 3 (which is defined in module) rather than 4. I think
it's expected behavior.

It's something like [dynamic
binding](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Dynamic-Binding-Tips.html)
vs [lexical
binding](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Lexical-Binding.html)
in lisp like language, and lexical binding should be right behavior
which generates more predicable result, and it doesn't introduce really
subtle bugs in nushell code.

What if user want dynamic-binding?(For example: the example code returns
`4`)
There is no way to do this, user should consider passing the value as
argument to custom command rather than const.

## TODO
- [X] adding tests for the feature.
- [X] support export const out of module to use.

`Span` around. This PR replaces all instances of `&Span` with `Span`,
copying spans where necessary.

# User-Facing Changes
This alters some public functions to take `Span` instead of `&Span` as

Add functions for each Value case (#9736)
# Description
This PR ensures functions exist to extract and create each and every
`Value` case. It also renames `Value::boolean` to `Value::bool` to match
`Value::test_bool`, `Value::as_bool`, and `Value::Bool`. Similarly,
`Value::as_integer` was renamed to `Value::as_int` to be consistent with
`Value::int`, `Value::test_int`, and `Value::Int`. These two renames can
be undone if necessary.

# User-Facing Changes
No user facing changes, but two public functions were renamed which may
affect downstream dependents.

Support variables/interpolation in o>, e>, o+e> redirect (#9747)
# Description
Fixes:  #8517
Fixes: #9246
Fixes: #9709
Relative: #9723


## About the change
Before the pr, nushell only parse redirection target as a string(through
`parse_string` call).
In the pr, I'm trying to make the value more generic(using `parse_value`
with `SyntaxShape::Any`)

And during eval stage, we guard it to only eval `String`,
`StringInterpolation`, `FullCellPath`, `FilePath`, so other type of
redirection target like `1ms` won't be permitted.

# User-Facing Changes

After the pr: redirection support something like the following:
1. `let a = "x"; cat toolkit.nu o> $a`
2. `let a = "x"; cat toolkit.nu o> $"($a).txt"`
3. `cat toolkit.nu out> ("~/a.txt" | path expand)`

Remove broken compile-time overload system (#9677)
# Description

This PR removes the compile-time overload system. Unfortunately, this
system never worked correctly because in a gradual type system where
types can be `Any`, you don't have enough information to correctly
resolve function calls with overloads. These resolutions must be done at
runtime, if they're supported.

That said, there's a bit of work that needs to go into resolving
input/output types (here overloads do not execute separate commands, but
the same command and each overload explains how each output type
corresponds to input types).

This PR also removes the type scope, which would give incorrect answers
in cases where multiple subexpressions were used in a pipeline.

# User-Facing Changes

Finishes removing compile-time overloads. These were only used in a few
places in the code base, but it's possible it may impact user code. I'll
mark this as breaking change so we can review.

remove let-env, focus on mutating $env (#9574)
# Description

For years, Nushell has used `let-env` to set a single environment
variable. As our work on scoping continued, we refined what it meant for
a variable to be in scope using `let` but never updated how `let-env`
would work. Instead, `let-env` confusingly created mutations to the
command's copy of `$env`.

So, to help fix the mental model and point people to the right way of
thinking about what changing the environment means, this PR removes
`let-env` to encourage people to think of it as updating the command's
environment variable via mutation.

Before:

```
let-env FOO = "BAR"
```

Now:

```
$env.FOO = "BAR"
```

It's also a good reminder that the environment owned by the command is
in the `$env` variable rather than global like it is in other shells.

# User-Facing Changes

BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE

This completely removes `let-env FOO = "BAR"` so that we can focus on
`$env.FOO = "BAR"`.

revert: move to ahash (#9464)
This PR reverts https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9391

We try not to revert PRs like this, though after discussion with the
Nushell team, we decided to revert this one.

The main reason is that Nushell, as a codebase, isn't ready for these
kinds of optimisations. It's in the part of the development cycle where
our main focus should be on improving the algorithms inside of Nushell
itself. Once we have matured our algorithms, then we can look for
opportunities to switch out technologies we're using for alternate
forms.

Much of Nushell still has lots of opportunities for tuning the codebase,
paying down technical debt, and making the codebase generally cleaner
and more robust. This should be the focus. Performance improvements
should flow out of that work.

Said another, optimisation that isn't part of tuning the codebase is
premature at this stage. We need to focus on doing the hard work of
making the engine, parser, etc better.

Feature: Userland LazyRecords (#8332)
# Description
Despite the innocent-looking title, this PR involves quite a few backend
changes as the existing LazyRecord trait was not at all friendly towards
the idea of these values being generated on the fly from Nu code.

In particular, here are a few changes involved:
- The LazyRecord trait now involves a lifetime `'a`, and this lifetime
is used in the return value of `get_column_names`. This means it no
longer returns `'static str`s (but implementations still can return
these). This is more stringent on the consumption side.
- The LazyRecord trait now must be able to clone itself via a new
`clone_value` method (as requiring `Clone` is not object safe). This
pattern is borrowed from `Value::CustomValue`.
- LazyRecord no longer requires being serde serializable and
deserializable.

These, in hand, allow for the following:
- LazyRecord can now clone itself, which means that they don't have to
be collected into a Record when being cloned.
- This is especially useful in Stack, which is cloned on each repl line
and in a few other cases. This would mean that _every_ LazyRecord
instance stored in a variable would be collected in its entirety and
cloned, which can be catastrophic for performance. See: `let nulol =
$nu`.
- LazyRecord's columns don't have to be static, they can have the same
lifetime of the struct itself, so different instances of the same
LazyRecord type can have different columns and values (like the new
`NuLazyRecord`)
- Serialization and deserialization are no longer meaningless, they are
simply less.

I would consider this PR very "drafty", but everything works. It
probably requires some cleanup and testing, though, but I'd like some
eyes and pointers first.

# User-Facing Changes
New command. New restrictions are largely internal. Maybe there are some
plugins affected?

Example of new command's usage:
```
lazy make --columns [a b c] --get-value { |name| print $"getting ($name)"; $name | str upcase }
```

You can also trivially implement something like `lazy make record` to
take a record of closures and turn it into a getter-like lazy struct:
```
def "lazy make record" [
    record: record
] {
    let columns = ($record | columns)

    lazy make --columns $columns --get-value { |col| do ($record | get $col) }
}
```

Open to bikeshedding. `lazy make` is similar to `error make` which is
also in the core commands. I didn't like `make lazy` since it sounded
like some transformation was going on.

# Tour for reviewers
Take a look at LazyMake's examples. They have `None` as the results, as
such they aren't _really_ correct and aren't being tested at all. I
didn't do this because creating the Value::LazyRecord is a little tricky
and didn't want to risk messing it up, especially as the necessary
variables aren't available when creating the examples (like stack and
engine state).

Also take a look at NuLazyRecord's get_value implementation, or in
general. It uses an Arc<Mutex<_>> for the stack, which must be accessed
mutably for eval_block but get_value only provides us with a `&self`.
This is a sad state of affairs, but I don't know if there's a better
way.

On the same code path, we also have pipeline handling, and any pipeline
that isn't a Pipeline::Value will return Value::nothing. I believe
returning a Value::Error is probably better, or maybe some other
handling. Couldn't decide on which ShellError to settle with for that
branch.

The "unfortunate casualty" in the columns.rs file. I'm not sure just how
bad that is, though, I simply had to fight a little with the borrow
checker.

A few leftover comments like derives, comments about the now
non-existing serde requirements, and impls. I'll definitely get around
to those eventually but they're in atm

Should NuLazyRecord implement caching? I'm leaning heavily towards
**yes**, this was one of the main reasons not to use a record of
closures (besides convenience), but maybe it could be opt-out. I'd
wonder about its implementation too, but a simple way would be to move a
HashMap into the mutex state and keep cached values there.

Avoid blocking when o+e> redirects too much stderr message (#8784)
# Description

Fixes: #8565

Here is another pr #7240 tried to address the issue, but it works in a
wrong way.

After this change `o+e>` won't redirect all stdout message then stderr
message and it works more like how bash does.

# User-Facing Changes

For the given python code:
```python
# test.py
import sys

print('aa'*300, flush=True)
print('bb'*999999, file=sys.stderr, flush=True)
print('cc'*300, flush=True)
```

Running `python test.py out+err> a.txt` shoudn't hang nushell, and
`a.txt` keeps output in the same order

## About the change
The core idea is that when doing lite-parsing, introduce a new variant
`LiteElement::SameTargetRedirection` if we meet `out+err>` redirection
token(which is generated by lex function),

During converting from lite block to block,
LiteElement::SameTargetRedirection will be converted to
PipelineElement::SameTargetRedirection.

Then in the block eval process, if we get
PipelineElement::SameTargetRedirection, we'll invoke `run-external` with
`--redirect-combine` flag, then pipe the result into save command

## What happened internally?

Take the following command as example:
`^ls o+e> log.txt`

lex parsing result(`Tokens`) are not changed, but `LiteBlock` and
`Block` is changed after this pr.
### LiteBlock before

Parameter defaults to $nu.scope.commands (#9152)
(*third* try at posting this PR, #9104, like #9084, got polluted with
unrelated commits. I'm never going to pull from the github feature
branch again!)

Show parameter defaults in scope command signature, where they're
available for display by help.
per https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8928.

I found unexpected ramifications in one completer (NuHelpCompleter) and
plugins, which both use the flag-formatting routine from builtin help.
For the moment I made the minimum necessary changes to get the mainline
scenario to pass tests and run. But we should circle back on what to do
with plugins and help completer..

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
1. New `parameter_default` column to `signatures` table in
`$nu.scope.commands`
It is populated with whatever parameters can be defaulted: currently
positional args and named flags.
2. Built in help (both `help <command>` and `<command> --help` will
display the defaults
3. Help completer will display defaults for flags, but not for
positionals.

Example:
A custom command with some default parameters:
```
〉cat ~/work/dflts.nu 
# sample function to show defaults in help
export def main [
    arg1: string        # mandatory positional
    arg2:string=abc     # optional positional
    --switch            # no default here
    --named:int         # named flag, no default
    --other:string=def  # flag 
    --hard:record<foo:int bar:string, bas:bool> # default can be compound type
            = {foo:22, bar:"other worlds", bas:false}
] { {arg1: $arg1,
    arg2: $arg2,
    switch: $switch,
    named: $named,
    other: $other,
    hard: $hard, }
}

Change type of flag defaults to Option<Value> (#9085)
# Description
Follow-up of #8940. As @bobhy pointed out, it makes sense for the
behaviour of flags to match the one for positional arguments, where
default values are of type `Option<Value>` instead of
`Option<Expression>`.

# User-Facing Changes
The same ones from the original PR:
- Flag default values will now be parsed as constants.
- If the default value is not a constant, a parser error is displayed.

# Tests + Formatting

A [new
test](e34e2d35f4/src/tests/test_engine.rs (L338-L344))
has been added to verify the new restriction.

Bump tabled dependency to 0.11 (#8922)
close? #8060

Quite a bit of refactoring took place.
I believe a few improvements to collapse/expand were made.

I've tried to track any performance regressions and seems like it is
fine.

I've noticed something different now with default configuration path or
something in this regard?
So I might missed something while testing because of this.

Requires some oversight.
