chore: update all plugins to Nushell 0.111.0

Browse Source 
- Bump all 18 plugins from 0.110.0 to 0.111.0
  - Update rust-toolchain.toml channel to 1.93.1 (nu 0.111.0 requires ≥1.91.1)

  Fixes:
  - interprocess pin =2.2.x → ^2.3.1 in nu_plugin_mcp, nu_plugin_nats, nu_plugin_typedialog
    (required by nu-plugin-core 0.111.0)
  - nu_plugin_typedialog: BackendType::Web initializer — add open_browser: false field
  - nu_plugin_auth: implement missing user_info_to_value helper referenced in tests

  Scripts:
  - update_all_plugins.nu: fix [package].version update on minor bumps; add [dev-dependencies]
    pass; add nu-plugin-test-support to managed crates
  - download_nushell.nu: rustup override unset before rm -rf on nushell dir replace;
    fix unclosed ) in string interpolation

**Parameters:**
- **template** `<path>`: Path to the `.tera` template file
- **template** `<path>`: Path to the `.tera` template file or directory (with `--directory`)
- **context** `<any>`: Context data (record or JSON file path) (optional)
**Flags:**
- **--directory**: Load all templates from a directory (enables `{% include %}`, `{% extends %}`, macros)
- **--entry-point** `<string>`: Template to render in directory mode (default: `main.j2`, fallback: `index.j2`)
- **-h**, **--help**: Display the help message for this command

## Template Composition with Directory Mode
The `--directory` flag enables true template composition using Tera's include and extends features. Load all templates from a directory and use advanced template patterns.
### Directory Structure
```plaintext
templates/
├── base.j2 # Base layout template
├── includes/
│ ├── _header.j2 # Reusable header component
│ ├── _footer.j2 # Reusable footer component
│ └── _helpers.j2 # Shared macros and filters
└── main.j2 # Main template using includes
```
### Usage with Directory Mode
```nushell
# Single render with ALL templates loaded (enables includes, extends, macros)
> {
title: "My Report",
sections: [
{ name: "Features", items: ["fast", "reliable"] }
]
} | tera-render templates --directory
# Renders main.j2 with all includes and macros loaded
```
### Infrastructure-as-Code Example
**templates/hetzner/** Directory structure:
```plaintext
templates/hetzner/
├── base.j2 # Shared macros
├── includes/
│ ├── _ssh_keys.j2 # SSH key setup
│ ├── _networks.j2 # Network creation
│ └── _firewalls.j2 # Firewall rules
└── server.j2 # Main orchestration
```
**templates/hetzner/base.j2**
```jinja2
{% macro setup_ssh_key(name, public_key) %}
hcloud ssh-key create --name "{{ name }}" --public-key "{{ public_key }}"
{% endmacro %}
{% macro create_network(name, ip_range) %}
hcloud network create --name "{{ name }}" --ip-range "{{ ip_range }}"
{% endmacro %}
```
**templates/hetzner/server.j2**
```jinja2
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
{% include "includes/_ssh_keys.j2" %}
{% include "includes/_networks.j2" %}
{% include "includes/_firewalls.j2" %}
hcloud server create ...
```
**Usage:**
```nushell
> { ssh_key: {...}, network: {...}, server: {...} }
| tera-render templates/hetzner --directory
| save server-setup.sh
```
Result: Single atomic script with all sections composed from DRY templates via includes and shared macros.
## Custom Entry Points
The `--entry-point` parameter allows you to select different templates within the same directory. This enables multiple configurations or deployment scenarios from a single template library.
### Use Cases
```plaintext
templates/deployment/
├── base.j2 # Shared macros for all configurations
├── dev.j2 # Development environment config
├── staging.j2 # Staging environment config
├── prod.j2 # Production environment config
├── includes/
│ ├── _setup.j2 # Common setup steps
│ └── _cleanup.j2 # Common cleanup steps
└── main.j2 # Default (used when no entry-point specified)
```
### Examples
**Render default template (main.j2):**
```nushell
> { env: "production" } | tera-render templates/deployment --directory
# Uses: main.j2
```
**Render development configuration:**
```nushell
> { env: "development", debug: true } | tera-render templates/deployment --directory --entry-point dev.j2
# Uses: dev.j2 (with development-specific settings)
```
**Render production configuration:**
```nushell
> { env: "production", replicas: 5 } | tera-render templates/deployment --directory --entry-point prod.j2
# Uses: prod.j2 (with production-specific settings)
```
### Template Structure Example
**templates/deployment/base.j2**
```jinja2
{% macro deploy_service(name, replicas) %}
echo "Deploying {{ name }} with {{ replicas }} replicas"
{% endmacro %}
{% macro setup_monitoring() %}
# Common monitoring setup
{% endmacro %}
```
**templates/deployment/dev.j2**
```jinja2
{% import "base.j2" as base %}
{% include "includes/_setup.j2" %}
{{ base::deploy_service(name=service, replicas=1) }}
{{ base::setup_monitoring() }}
# Development-specific settings
DEBUG=true
LOG_LEVEL=debug
```
**templates/deployment/prod.j2**
```jinja2
{% import "base.j2" as base %}
{% include "includes/_setup.j2" %}
{{ base::deploy_service(name=service, replicas=replicas) }}
{{ base::setup_monitoring() }}
# Production-specific settings
DEBUG=false
LOG_LEVEL=warn
REPLICAS={{ replicas }}
```
### Benefits
| Feature | Default | Custom Entry Point |
|---------|---------|-------------------|
| Reuse macros/includes | ✅ | ✅ |
| Multiple configurations | ❌ | ✅ |
| Dev/staging/prod variants | ❌ | ✅ |
| Single template directory | ✅ | ✅ |
| DRY principle | ✅ | ✅ |
