…ighting in the repl (nushell#11135) # Description This PR enables a new feature that shows which externals are found in your path via the syntax highlighter as you type.  This idea could use some improvement where it caches the items in your path and on some trigger, expires that cache and creates a new on. Right now, all it does is call the `which` crate on every character you type. This could be problematic if you have hundreds of paths in your PATH or if some of your paths in your Path point to extraordinarily slow file systems. WSL pointing to Windows comes to mind. Either way, I've thrown it up here for people to try and provide feedback. I think the novelty of showing what is valid and what isn't is pretty cool.
