chore(tvix/eval): provide 'static references to "name"/"value"

These static strings show up a bunch when dealing with the internals
of attribute sets, and having them available as static references is
required.

Due to the way const expressions are evaluated, taking a reference to
the existing NixString::NAME / NixString::VALUE items does not work
and the references themselves need to be const-evaluated.
