Title: hide - Hide definitions in the current scope

Summary

The `hide` command in Nushell allows you to remove definitions (aliases and custom commands) from the current scope. You can hide specific members of a module or module file, or hide aliases and custom commands that you have defined. It prioritizes hiding aliases before custom commands. It's a parser keyword, so refer to the Nushell documentation for more details.
