“Nyad” manages to be a celebration of perseverance, self-belief and learning how to be loved. It’s also about aging gracefully, and a little crankily, on and off the screen. Viva the divas, in all their shapes, sizes and temperaments, and however they care to be defined. “Nyad” is here for it — sharks, stingers and haters be damned.
