NixString is *quite* large - like 80 bytes - because of the extra
capacity value for BString and because of the context. We want to keep
Value small since we're passing it around a lot, so let's box the
NixString inside Value::String to save on some memory, and make cloning
ostensibly a little cheaper

C++ nix uses C-style zero-terminated char pointers to represent strings
internally - however, up to this point, tvix has used Rust `String` and
`str` for string values. Since those are required to be valid utf-8, we
haven't been able to properly represent all the string values that Nix
supports.
To fix that, this change converts the internal representation of the
NixString struct from `Box<str>` to `BString`, from the `bstr` crate -
this is a wrapper around a `Vec<u8>` with extra functions for treating
that byte vector as a "morally string-like" value, which is basically
exactly what we need.
Since this changes a pretty fundamental assumption about a pretty core
type, there are a *lot* of changes in a lot of places to make this work,
but I've tried to keep the general philosophy and intent of most of the
code in most places intact. Most notably, there's nothing that's been
done to make the derivation stuff in //tvix/glue work with non-utf8
strings everywhere, instead opting to just convert to String/str when
passing things into that - there *might* be something to be done there,
but I don't know what the rules should be and I don't want to figure
them out in this change.
To deal with OS-native paths in a way that also works in WASM for
tvixbolt, this also adds a dependency on the "os_str_bytes" crate.

Implements externally tagged enum deserialisation. Other serialisation
methods are handled by serde internally using the existing methods.
See the tests for examples.

Only missing enums at this point, but they're a bit of a beast.
