Nushell breaking change (0.68 module/env-var changes)

Nushell is changing the way modules and env-vars work, which predictably shatters Zoxide's init script.

Currently there's a bug which breaks all source-env imports, so no sense jumping on this at the moment (nushell/nushell#6510), but when complete you'll need to do something like :

export-envs {
    let-env abcd = wxyz
}

export def-env efgh [] {
    let ijkl
}

export alias z = __zoxide_z

and then import all this with use ~/path/to/zoxide.nu *.

zoxide.nu will now be a module, so the * imports all exported functions under it. Alternatively you could embrace this structure and preface all command calls with the module name (i.e. zoxide __zoxide_z"), although I'm really struggling to understand how Nushell is going to differentiate between modules and executables so whatever you do, test the hell out of it 😄.
