# 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}`.
# Description
This PR changes the signature of the `help` command so that it can
return a `Type::Table`.

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
# 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 -A clippy::result_large_err` to check that
you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr

# Description
- A new one is the removal of unnecessary `#` in raw strings without `"`
inside.
-
https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#/needless_raw_string_hashes
- The automatically applied removal of `.into_iter()` touched several
places where #9648 will change to the use of the record API. If
necessary I can remove them @IanManske to avoid churn with this PR.
- Manually applied `.try_fold` in two places
- Removed a dead `if`
- Manual: Combat rightward-drift with early return
# Description
Make sure that our different crates that contain commands can be
compiled in parallel.
This can under certain circumstances accelerate the compilation with
sufficient multithreading available.
## Details
- Move `help` commands from `nu-cmd-lang` back to `nu-command`
- This also makes sense as the commands are implemented in an
ANSI-terminal specific way
- Make `nu-cmd-lang` only a dev dependency for `nu-command`
- Change context creation helpers for `nu-cmd-extra` and
`nu-cmd-dataframe` to have a consistent api used in
`src/main.rs`:`get_engine_state()`
- `nu-command` now indepedent from `nu-cmd-extra` and `nu-cmd-dataframe`
that are now dependencies of `nu` directly. (change to internal
features)
- Fix tests that previously used `nu-command::create_default_context()`
with replacement functions
## From scratch compilation times:
just debug (dev) build and default features
```
cargo clean --profile dev && cargo build --timings
```

# User-Facing Changes
None direct, only change to compilation on multithreaded jobs expected.
# Tests + Formatting
Tests that previously chose to use `nu-command` for their scope will
still use `nu-cmd-lang` + `nu-command` (command list in the granularity
at the time)
