The set of things that can leak out of `builtins` into the global
scope is statically known (it is what Nix 2.3 leaks there,
essentially).
This is a mild change over the previous mechanism, where instead at
the point where the `builtins` set is constructed we "lift" the
globals out of there (if they exist).
This way users will still eventually be able to add additional
builtins, HOWEVER they will not be able to leak them into the global
scope.
Note that upstream Nix technically leaks _all_ builtins into the
global scope using the `__*` prefix, but we are trying to avoid this
in Tvix if it is not required in nixpkgs.

This is wired up all the way to the compiler with an example

Previously, the tokens that could poison a scope (`true`, `false`,
`null`) had individual fields in the scope to track whether or not
they were poisoned.
This commit sets up new machinery that instead tracks scope poisoning
dynamically using a HashMap, and which makes it possible to introduce
additional tokens to the top-level ("global") scope that are directly
resolved by the compiler by passing a map of runtime values to be
used.
With this solution, the compiler now contains all machinery required
for wiring up builtins resolution.
The set of builtins to be exposed at runtime must, however, be
constructed *outside* of the compiler and passed in. Everything is
prepared for this, but it is not yet wired up (so the only existing
builtins are the ones we already had before).
Note that this technically opens up an optimisation potential when
compiling selection operations, where the attribute set being selected
from is `builtins`. The compiler could directly resolve the builtins
and place the right values on the stack.

Nix functions always have a single argument and we do not yet make
efforts to optimise this in Tvix for known multi-argument functions
being directly applied.
For this reason, the call instruction is fairly simple and just calls
out to construct a new call frame.
Note that the logic for terminating the run loop has moved to the top
of the dispatch; this is because the loop run needs to be skipped if
the call frame for the current lambda has just been dropped.

repository at the moment. This commit updates the compiler to this
newer version of rnix.
Most notably, the entire AST provided by rnix is now wrapped in the
AST type system. As a result of this traversal is much nicer in many
places, especially for things like nested attribute selection.
There are a handful of smaller features missing for full feature
parity with the previous version, especially handling of path
literals, but PRs for these already exist in rnix-parser.

When encountering a `with` expression, the value from which the
bindings should be resolved is pushed onto the stack and tracked by
the compiler in the "with stack", as well as with a "phantom value"
which indicates that the stack contains an additional slot which is
not available to users via identifiers.
Runtime handling of this is not yet implemented.
