Swagger supports lists (a.k.a arrays) in query parameters:

https://swagger.io/docs/specification/v3_0/serialization/
It supports three different styles:
- explode=true
- spaceDelimited
- pipeDelimited
With explode=true being the default and hence most common. It is the
hardest to use inside of nushell, as the others are just a `string join`
away. This commit adds lists with the explode=true format.

Before:

: {a[]: [one two three], b: four} | url build-query
Error: nu::shell::unsupported_input
× Unsupported input
╭─[entry nushell#33:1:1]

After:

    a%5B%5D=one&a%5B%5D=two&a%5B%5D=three&b=four


Despite reading CONTRIBUTING.md I didn't get approval before making the
change. My judgment is that this doesn't qualify as being "change
something significantly".

# Tests + Formatting

I added the Example instance for the automatic tests. I couldn't figure
out how to add an Example for the error case, so I did that with manual
testing. E.g.:

: {a[]: [one two [three]], b: four} | url build-query

Error: nu:🐚:unsupported_input


× Unsupported input

╭─[entry #3:1:1]

I ran the four cargo commands on my local machine. I had to run the
tests with:

LANG=C and -j 1 and even then I got one failure:

thread 'commands::umkdir::mkdir_umask_permission' panicked at
crates/nu-command/tests/commands/umkdir.rs:148:9:
assertion `left == right` failed: Most *nix systems have 0o00022 as the
umask. So directory permission should be 0o40755 = 0o
40777 & (!0o00022)
left: 16893
    right: 16877

but this isn't related to this change (I seem to not be running most
*nix system; and don't have a lot of RAM for the number of cores). The
other three cargo commands didn't have errors or warnings.

# Open questions / possible future work

Things I noticed, and would like to mention and am open to adding, but
don't think I am deep enough in nushell to do them pro-actively.

## Add an argument for the other query parameter list styles

I don't know how frequent they are and I currently don't need them, so
following KISS I didn't add them.

## long input_span marked

In e.g.:

: {a[]: [one two 3hr], b: four} | url build-query

Error: nu::shell::unsupported_input


× Unsupported input

╭─[entry #4:1:1]

1 │ {a[]: [one two 3hr], b: four} | url build-query

· ──────────────┬────────────── ───────┬───────

· │ ╰── Expected a record with list of string values

· ╰── value originates from here

       ╰──── 

the entire record is marked as input_span instead of just the "3hr" that
is causing the problem. Changing that would be trivial, but I'm not deep
enough into nushell to understand all the consequences of changing that.


## Error message says string values despite accepting numbers etc.

The error message said it only accepted strings despite accepting
numbers etc. (anything it can coerce into string). I couldn't find a
good wording myself and that was how it was before. I simply added a
"list of strings".

Before this PR, you can access rendered error values that are raised in
a `try/catch` block by accessing the `rendered` element of the catch
error value:
```
$ try { ls nonexist.txt } catch {|e| print "my cool error:" $e.rendered }
my cool error:
nu::shell::directory_not_found

  × Directory not found
  help: /home/rose/nonexist.txt does not exist
```

However, the rendered errors don't include the labels present in the
real rendered error, which would look like this:
```
$ ls nonexist.txt
Error: nu::shell::directory_not_found

  × Directory not found
   ╭─[entry nushell#46:1:4]
 1 │ ls nonexist.txt
   ·    ──────┬─────
   ·          ╰── directory not found
   ╰────
  help: /home/rose/nonexist.txt does not exist
```

After this PR, the rendered error includes the labels:

```
$ try { ls nonexist.txt } catch {|e| print "my cool error:" $e.rendered }
my cool error:
Error: nu:🐚:directory_not_found

  × Directory not found
   ╭─[entry #4:1:10]
 1 │ try { ls nonexist.txt } catch {|e| print "my cool error:" $e.rendered }
   ·          ──────┬─────
   ·                ╰── directory not found
   ╰────
  help: /home/rose/nonexist.txt does not exist
```

This change is accomplished by using the standard error formatting code
to render an error. This respects the error theme as before without any
extra scaffolding, but it means that e.g., the terminal size is also
respected. I think this is fine because the way the error is rendered
already changed based on config, and I think that a "rendered" error
should give back _exactly_ what would be shown to the user anyway.

@fdncred, let me know if you have any concerns with the way this is
handled since you were the one who implemented this feature in the first
place.

… commands to utilize that (nushell#16414)

# Description

- Implemented `FromValue` for `std::time::Duration`.
- It only converts positive `Value::Duration` values, negative ones
raise `ShellError::NeedsPositiveValue`.
- Refactor `job recv` and `watch` commands to use this implementation
rather than handling it ad-hoc.
- Simplified `watch`'s `debounce` & `debounce-ms` and factored it to a
function. Should make removing `debounce-ms` after its deprecation
period ends.
- `job recv` previously used a numeric cast (`i64 as u64`) which would
result in extremely long duration values rather than raising an error
when negative duration arguments were given.

This PR adds the `toolkit run pr` and `toolkit download pr` commands to
`toolkit`. This is a more fleshed out version of the snippet shared in
nushell#16633, with robust error handling and cross-platform unzip support.
When using `toolkit run pr`, the script will also check if the most
recent binary for that PR has already been downloaded, and if so it will
run that instead.

I tried to make the error reporting as good as a built-in command to see
how difficult that would be, and with use of the `--head: oneof<>`
trick, it turned out pretty good. With access to the call span, the
workflow is very similar to when writing a built-in command. I also used
a `Spanned`-like record, which helped as well.

```nushell
toolkit run pr 16740
# => Error: nu::shell::error
# =>
# =>   × Command not found
# =>    ╭─[entry #4:1:26]
# =>  1 │ overlay use -pr toolkit; toolkit run pr 16740

# =>    ·                                 ╰── requires `gh`
# =>    ╰────
# =>   help: Please install the `gh` commandline tool
```

<details>
<summary>More error reporting notes</summary>
In an earlier version of the script, `run pr` called `download pr`
directly. I ended up changing the way this worked so that `run pr` could
use the workflow_id. Here's a couple snippets I thought were neat from
this older version.

&nbsp;
**Passing span via `--head`:**
```nushell
def download [--head: oneof<>] {
  let span = $head | default (metadata $head).span
  error make {msg: "a", label: {text: here, span: $span}}
}

def run [--head: oneof<>] { 
  let span = (metadata $head).span
  download --head=$span
}

download
# => Error: nu:🐚:error
# => 
# =>   × a
# =>    ╭─[entry nushell#6:1:1]
# =>  1 │ download
# =>    · ────┬───

# =>  1 │ run
# =>    · ─┬─
# =>    ·  ╰── here
# =>    ╰────
```

**Using "spanned" number as CLI parameter and as internal caller
parameter**

```nushell
def download [number: oneof<int, record<item: int, span: record>>] {
  let number = match $number {
    {item: $_, span: $_} => $number,
    $val => {item: $number, span: (metadata $number).span}
  }

  error make {msg: "a", label: {text: here, span: $number.span}}
}

def run [number: int] {
  let number = {item: $number, span: (metadata $number).span}
  download $number
}

## User-facing Changes

* New arguments! (`error make "hello"`)
* New parts for `error_struct`! (`error make {inner: [] labels: []
...}`)
* Pipeline inputs for chained errors! (`try {error make foo} catch
{error make bar}`)
* Pipeline inputs for normal errors! (`"help" | error make`)
* External errors! (`error make {src: {path: $nu.cofig-path} ...}`)
* Backwards compatibility!

### Arguments and Inputs

The main changes are in how the arguments are passed. Everything is
still backwards compatible with the old `error make` commands, there's
just a nice extra layer we get from the pipeline and a few new args
(that were already added in nushell#17037). There are some new ways to
(hopefully intentionally) cause an error, such as using a naked `error
make`, pipelines from records and simple string input!

#### Inputs

Because `error make` will just make an error anyway, it can technically
take any input to make an error, but only properly formatted record
input will create a chain. the `x | f $in` pattern can be used for
string input, if that is more comfortable.

#### With no arguments

This is a completely new way to do this, with no arguments the `error
make` invocation is highlighted, along with a simple `originates from
here` message. This makes normal errors very easy to create without any
special message setup.

```
> error make
Error: nu::shell::error

  × originates from here
   ╭─[entry #4:1:1]
 1 │ error make
   · ──────────
   ╰────
```

#### Create a single argument

* With pipeline input: `{msg: foo} | error make`
* With an argument: `error make {msg: foo}`
* With a string argument: `error make foo`
```
Error: nu:🐚:error

  × foo
   ╭─[entry #2:1:12]
 1 │ error make {msg: foo}
   ·            ──────────
   ╰────
```
#### Chaining errors together

These will automatically create a chain of errors, placing the pipeline
as an `inner` to the argument. This can very easily be used to get a bit
more detail in a try loop using the naked `error make`:

```
Error: nu:🐚:error

  × originates from here
   ╭─[source:1:31]
 1 │ try {error make "foo"} catch {error make}
   ·                               ──────────
   ╰────

Error: nu:🐚:error

  × foo
   ╭─[source:1:6]
 1 │ try {error make "foo"} catch {error make}
   ·      ──────────
   ╰────
```

Or with more complex errors:

* With both, combining the errors: `{msg: foo} | error make bar`
* With the raw error from try: `try {error make foo} catch {error make
bar}`

Both are equivalent to:
* `error make {msg: bar inner: [{msg: foo}]}`

```
Error: nu:🐚:error

  × bar
   ╭─[entry #1:1:29]
 1 │ try {error make foo} catch {error make bar}
   ·                             ──────────
   ╰────

Error: nu:🐚:error

  × foo
   ╭─[entry #1:1:6]
 1 │ try {error make foo} catch {error make bar}
   ·      ──────────
   ╰────
```

### Labels

As is noticeable in the examples above, simple errors no longer use an
extra line for the label. If no label is present, `error make` will
place a bar under the span of itself or the argument to `error make`.
Labels have also gotten a bit of a rewrite, but they're pretty much the
same as those in nushell#17037, except for `label`, which is now only a single
label (not `oneof<list, label>`).
#### Simple Labels

`label.text` and `labels.*.text` is no longer required for a span to
show up, an empty text will simply underline. This example can either
use `label: $record` or be written as `labels: [$record]`:

```
> def f [x] {
  error make {msg: here label: {span: (metadata $x).span}}
}
f abcd
Error: nu::shell::error

  × here
   ╭─[entry nushell#7:4:3]
 3 │ }
 4 │ f abcd
   ·   ────
   ╰────
```

#### Multiple labels
Any number of labels can be added in the `labels` column, allowing for
more detailed error messages, especially for functions:

```
> def f [x y z] {
  error make {msg: here labels: [
    {text: "there" span: (metadata $x).span}
    {text: "everywhere" span: (metadata $y).span}
    {text: "somewhere" span: (metadata $z).span}
  ]
  }
}
f abcd [x y z] {d: a}

Error: nu:🐚:error

  × here
   ╭─[entry nushell#11:9:3]
 8 │ }
 9 │ f abcd [x y z] {d: a}
   ·   ──┬─ ───┬─── ───┬──
   ·     │     │       ╰── somewhere
   ·     │     ╰── everywhere
   ·     ╰── there
   ╰────
```

#### External sources

There is a `ShellError::OutsideSpannedLabeledError` that can be used to
refer to external sources, not just the internal nushell spanns. This
has been expanded to allow the multi-label stuff to work using the new
`src` column:

```
> "foo\nbar\nbaz" | save -f /tmp/foo.bar
error make {
  msg: 'error here'
  src: {path: /tmp/foo.bar}
  labels: [
    {text: "this" span: {start: 4 end: 7}}
  ]
}
Error: nu:🐚:outside

  × error here
   ╭─[/tmp/foo.bar:2:1]
 1 │ foo
 2 │ bar
   · ─┬─
   ·  ╰── this
 3 │ baz
   ╰────
```

### Errors That Can't be Caught

These will not work since `try` will never get parsed:

- `try {1 + ""} catch {error make badmath}`
- (TODO: Add more examples)

## Internal Changes

Most of the parsing from an error record to an actual error is now moved
into `nu-protocol`, using `FromValue` to turn it into a useful internal
type.

### `nu-protocol::LabeledError`

This struct has a few changes, the main one being the type of
`LabeledError.inner`. It is now a `ShellError`, not another
`LabeledError`. It should be trivial to do a `.into()` for things that
already use `LabeledError.with_inner(x)`.

### `nu-protocol::ShellError::into_value`

I renamed the old `into_value` to `into_full_value` to better say what
it is, since it doesn't just do the `IntoValue::into_value` method, it
also requires some context to create the `Value`. Now `ShellError` has
an `IntoValue` implementation matching other types.

### `nu-protocol::ShellError::{OutsideSource, OutsideSourceNoUrl}`

Miette's derived types don't have a nice way to maybe include a url, so
there are now two types! These allow using multiple labels on outside
sources. They are used internally for the new `{src: {}}` part of the
`error_struct`, and they look a lot more like the `LabeledError`, but
without the need for a separate type and all the fun `impl`s that would
require for the `Diagnostic::source_code` method.

### Misc

* Spelling fix: `into_chainned` => `into_chained`

## Current bugs:
- [x] `OutsideSpannedLabeledError`  
The inner most error of `try {']' from nuon} catch {error make}` will
reference `span: {start: 0, end: 1}`, which in `']' from nuon` will
point to the `]` character, but when it does this in `error make` as an
input it will point to the very first character (probably the `n` in
`nu`).

## Release notes summary - What our users need to know

### New `error make` functionality!
* New arguments! (`error make "hello"`)
* New parts for `error_struct`! (`error make {inner: [] labels: []
...}`)
* Pipeline inputs for chained errors! (`try {error make foo} catch
{error make bar}`)
* Pipeline inputs for normal errors! (`"help" | error make`)
* External errors! (`error make {src: {path: $nu.cofig-path} ...}`)
* Backwards compatibility!
