The CMD.EXE `START` command does way more than open the file explorer on a directory path. That is only the case when passing a directory path as a parameter. * Split START reference into three cases: 1. Open path in default app 2. Execute internal command 3. Execute batch file * Add documentation about Nushell's own `start` command, which overlaps with CMD.exe START Although Nushell `start` can be used to execute bat files, doing so does not open a new console window like CMD.EXE START does. Hence, no such mapping is added.
