While inspecting the Windows specific code of `ls` for #15311 I stumbled upon an unrelated issue in the alternate metadata gathering on Windows (added by #5703). The handle created by performing `FindFirstFileW` was never closed, leading to a potential leak. Fixed by running `FindClose` as soon as the operation succeeds. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-findfirstfilew#remarks
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
