Add activation commands for fish shell and other alternative shells

While trying to use uv with fish shell, I encountered an issue as source .venv/bin/activate didn't work. The documentation didn't specify that fish shell requires using source .venv/bin/activate.fish instead. I created issue #10986 to address this.

This PR improves the documentation by:

  • Adding the correct activation command for fish shell: source .venv/bin/activate.fish
  • Adding the correct activation command for Nushell: use .venv\Scripts\activate.nu
  • Adding the correct activation command for Tcsh: use .venv/bin/activate.csh

This will help users of alternative shells to properly activate their virtual environments without encountering the same confusion I experienced.

Fixes #10986
