Description
Describe the bug
Per the title, very common command returns confusing feedback:
at 11:33:05 ❯ open "qweqwqe"
Error: nu::shell::directory_not_found
× Directory not found
╭─[entry #76:1:1]
1 │ open "qweqwqe"
· ────┬────
· ╰── directory not found
╰────
Since open only applies to files, not directories, this is confusing.
How to reproduce
Full repro above.
Expected behavior
I expect the following feedback:
at 11:33:05 ❯ open "qweqwqe"
Error: nu::shell::file_not_found
× File not found
╭─[entry #76:1:1]
1 │ open "qweqwqe"
· ────┬────
· ╰── file not found
╰────

Additional context
open calls glob_from, which defaults to ShellError::DirectoryNotFound.
I am not sure whether DirectoryNotFound is a better default than FileNotFound for glob_from, but I'm pretty sure it isn't for open.
I'm happy to contribute a patch fixing open (seems very local) if that's the correct way to go, less sure about glob_from. Maybe the correct solution is to expand the glob API with a glob_files_from and use that instead where warranted?
