By default, we don't want contextful strings and we almost always want contextless strings.
To this end, we make taking a contextful string a very explicit operation under `to_contextful_str`
and we implement manually the `to_str` cast which requires a `if !s.has_context()` guard that
the macro cannot cover.

I'm still trying to work out the exact stack invariants for tvix.
We really should add assertions for them; getting the stack messed
up is no fun. This commit adds one simple assertion. It also adds
a missing stack-push (my mistake) in one place, which was uncovered
by the assertion.

r/7176 introduced an incorrect assumption was the benefit of the
nonrecursive coercion algorithm, namely that a coercion operation always
returns a non empty string. This allows to detect whether we are
coercing a list or not by checking if the intermediate result is empty
or not. Unfortunately, coercing null and false yields an empty string,
so we need to explicitly track whether we are coercing a list.
Updated the test case to hopefully catch similar bugs in the future. I'm
not a hundred percent certain I have not introduced a new edge case with
this, so it may be interesting to add a prop test case for this to
nix_oracle down the line. At least lists are the only nested data
structures that can be serialized as nested data structures, so the
problem is kind of limited.

The default behavior of string coercion in C++ Nix is to weakly coerce
and import to store if necessary. There is a flag to make it strongly
coerce (coerceMore) and a flag that controls whether path values have
the corresponding file/directory imported into the store before
returning the (store) path as a string (copyToStore). We need to
implement our equivalent to the copyToStore (import_paths) flag for the
benefit of weak coercions that don't import into the store (dirOf,
baseNameOf, readFile, ...) and strong coercions that don't import into
the store (toString).
This makes coerce_to_string as well as CoercionKind weirder and more
versatile, but prevents us from reimplementing parts of the coercion
logic constantly as can be seen in the case of baseNameOf.
Note that it is not possible to test this properly in //tvix/eval tests
due to the lack of an appropriate EvalIO implementation being available.
Tests should be added to //tvix/glue down the line.

After this commit, the only non-builtins uses of generators are:
- coerce_to_string() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
- Thunk::force() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
That's it! Once those two are taken care of, GenCo can become an
implementation detail of `builtins::BuiltinGen`. No more crazy
nonlocal flow control within the interpreter: if you've got a GenCo
floating around in your code it's because you're writing a builtin,
which isn't part of the core interpreter. The interpreter won't
need GenCos to talk to itself anymore.
Technically generators::request_path_import() is also used by
coerce_to_string(), but that's just because the io_handle happens to
be part of the VM. There's no recursion-depth issue there, so the
call doesn't need to go through the generator mechanism
(request_path_import() doesn't call back to the interpreter!)

LightSpan::Delayed was introduced in commit
bf286a54bc which claimed that "This
reduces the eval time for `builtins.length (builtins.attrNames
(import <nixpkgs> {}))` by *one third*!"
I am unable to reproduce this result. In fact, dropping the
LightSpan::Delayed variant of the enum makes eval of the same
expression slightly faster! I also tried a large evaluation
(pkgsCross...hello) and got similar results: slightly faster,
slightly less memory. See git footers.
I suspect that there was some unrelated horrific inefficiency that
has since been fixed. The avoided computation in `get_span()` is
nothing more than a binary search! If this were in fact a major
performance issue we could simply precompute the mapping from
CodeIdx to Span when the Chunk becomes immutable (i.e. at the end of
the compilation process, when compiler backtracking is no longer a
concern). Since a Span is just 64 bits this is not a space issue,
and since binary search is much simpler than compiling Nix
expressions it isn't a performance issue either.
Technically there is no longer any reason to have LightSpan since it
is now a single-variant enum. However there is no rush to remove
it, since Rust will optimize its representation into the same thing
you'd get if you replaced LightSpan by Span.
