09b30f895a refactor(tvix/nix-compat): simplify fingerprint calculation
Instead of having two very similar match branches for the FOD and non-
FOD case, detect the FOD case while looping over all outputs.

In the case of anything other than recursive sha256 FODs, the
fingerprint and output path calculation is exactly the same.

4d465249ef fix(tvix/cli): populate output configuration after walking args
Walking the arguments might encounter an `outputs` output, which might
explicitly (for whatever reason) specify the `out` output.

To prevent dropping FOD settings in this case, we have to populate
that part of the configuration after walking the other attributes.

b55d1f97ce refactor(tvix/nix-compat): -derivation::Hash, +NixHash
This stops using our own custom Hash structure, which was mostly only
used because we had to parse the JSON representation somehow.

Since cl/8217, there's a `NixHash` struct, which is better suited to
hold this data. Converting the format requires a bit of serde labor
though, but that only really matters when interacting with JSON
representations (which we mostly don't).

36bed4ce57 chore(tvix/store): drop separate bin package
Apparently, having multiple packages with the same path is a bad thing:

```
The bin target `tvix-store` in package `tvix-store-bin v0.1.0 (/home/flokli/tvl/tvix/store)` has the same output filename as the lib target `tvix_store` in package `tvix-store-bin v0.1.0 (/home/flokli/tvl/tvix/store)`.
Colliding filename is: /home/flokli/tvl/tvix/target/doc/tvix_store/index.html
The output filenames should be unique.
This is a known bug where multiple crates with the same name use
the same path; see <https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/6313>.
```

1e80b9ea8b chore(tvix/eval): mark async functions which are called by the VM
Given Rust's current lack of support for tail calls, we cannot avoid
using `async` for builtins.  This is the only way to avoid
overflowing the cpu stack when we have arbitrarily deep
builtin/interpreted/builtin/interpreted/... "sandwiches"

There are only five `async fn` functions which are not builtins
(some come in multiple "flavors"):

- add_values
- resolve_with
- force, final_deep_force
- nix_eq, nix_cmp_eq
- coerce_to_string

These can be written iteratively rather than recursively (and in
fact nix_eq used to be written that way!).  I volunteer to rewrite
them.  If written iteratively they would no longer need to be
`async`.

There are two motivations for limiting our reliance on `async` to
only the situation (builtins) where we have no other choice:

1. Performance.

   We don't really have any good measurement of the performance hit
   that the Box<dyn Future>s impose on us.  Right now all of our
   large (nixpkgs-eval) tests are swamped by the cost of other
   things (e.g. fork()ing `nix-store`) so we can't really measure
   it.  Builtins tend to be expensive operations anyways
   (regexp-matching, sorting, etc) that are likely to already cost
   more than the `async` overhead.

2. Preserving the ability to switch to `musttail` calls.

   Clang/LLVM recently got `musttail` (mandatory-elimination tail
   calls).  Rust has refused to add this mainly because WASM doesn't
   support, but WASM `tail_call` has been implemented and was
   recently moved to phase 4 (standardization).  It is very likely
   that Rust will get tail calls sometime in the next year; if it
   does, we won't need async anymore.  In the meantime, I'd like to
   avoid adding any further reliance on `async` in places where it
   wouldn't be straightforward to replace it with a tail call.

This has a small but noticeable impact on evaluation performance.

No operations have changed in any way, this is purely moving code
around.

now passes, too.

This fixes an issue where serialising data structures containing

This gets us one step closer to tracing VERY large executions without
blowing up.

19106cdaf0 fix(tvix/eval): don't print full values in observer
This can actually blow up when tracing arbitrary execution, as some of
the data structures just get too large to run through a tabwriter.

eef48b8f1f fix(tvix/eval): correctly thunk deferred formals access
Formals can be initialised with deferred default values (see the test
cases), in which case they need an extra thunk to have something that
can be finalised appropriately when the setup is done.

1941082cbb refactor(tvix/eval): simplify NixString representation(s)
Instead of the two different representations (which we don't really
use much), use a `Box<str>` (which potentially shaves another 8 bytes
off `Value`).

NixString values themselves are immutable anyways (which was a
guarantee we already had with `SmolStr`), so this doesn't change
anything else.

4bbfeaf1cb refactor(tvix/eval): wrap NixList in Rc
The size of a `Vector<Value>` is 64 *bytes*, which is quite large, and
it bloated the entire Value type to this size.

This change adds an indirection for the inner vector through Rc.
Initially I tried to use a Box, but this breaks pointer equality
guarantees for the Vector when it is small enough to be inlined.

This reduces the size of Value from 64 to 32 bytes.

025c67bf4d refactor(tvix/eval): flatten call stack of VM using generators
Warning: This is probably the biggest refactor in tvix-eval history,
so far.

This replaces all instances of trampolines and recursion during
evaluation of the VM loop with generators. A generator is an
asynchronous function that can be suspended to yield a message (in our
case, vm::generators::GeneratorRequest) and receive a
response (vm::generators::GeneratorResponsee).

The `genawaiter` crate provides an interpreter for generators that can
drive their execution and lets us move control flow between the VM and
suspended generators.

To do this, massive changes have occured basically everywhere in the
code. On a high-level:

1. The VM is now organised around a frame stack. A frame is either a
   call frame (execution of Tvix bytecode) or a generator frame (a
   running or suspended generator).

   The VM has an outer loop that pops a frame off the frame stack, and
   then enters an inner loop either driving the execution of the
   bytecode or the execution of a generator.

   Both types of frames have several branches that can result in the
   frame re-enqueuing itself, and enqueuing some other work (in the
   form of a different frame) on top of itself. The VM will eventually
   resume the frame when everything "above" it has been suspended.

   In this way, the VM's new frame stack takes over much of the work
   that was previously achieved by recursion.

2. All methods previously taking a VM have been refactored into async
   functions that instead emit/receive generator messages for
   communication with the VM.

   Notably, this includes *all* builtins.

This has had some other effects:

- Some test have been removed or commented out, either because they
  tested code that was mostly already dead (nix_eq) or because they
  now require generator scaffolding which we do not have in place for
  tests (yet).

- Because generator functions are technically async (though no async
  IO is involved), we lose the ability to use much of the Rust
  standard library e.g. in builtins. This has led to many algorithms
  being unrolled into iterative versions instead of iterator
  combinations, and things like sorting had to be implemented from scratch.

- Many call sites that previously saw a `Result<..., ErrorKind>`
  bubble up now only see the result value, as the error handling is
  encapsulated within the generator loop.

  This reduces number of places inside of builtin implementations
  where error context can be attached to calls that can fail.
  Currently what we gain in this tradeoff is significantly more
  detailed span information (which we still need to bubble up, this
  commit does not change the error display).

  We'll need to do some analysis later of how useful the errors turn
  out to be and potentially introduce some methods for attaching
  context to a generator frame again.

This change is very difficult to do in stages, as it is very much an
"all or nothing" change that affects huge parts of the codebase. I've
tried to isolate changes that can be isolated into the parent CLs of
this one, but this change is still quite difficult to wrap one's mind
and I'm available to discuss it and explain things to any reviewer.

Fixes: b/238, b/237, b/251 and potentially others.

cbb4137dc0 feat(tvix/eval): implement generator-based Nix equality logic
Adds a `Value::neo_nix_eq` method (the `neo_` prefix will be dropped
when we flip over to the generator implementation of the VM) which
implements Nix equality semantics using async, generator-based
comparisons.

Instead of tracking the "kind" of equality that is being compared (see
the pointer-equality doc) through a pair of booleans, I've introduced
an enum that explicitly lists the possible comparisons.
