10b0879c00 fix(tvix/eval): ensure OpResolveWith can be traced
The previous implementation of OpResolveWith manually controlled the
loop iteration, which skipped over the disassembler's tracing
instruction.

Instead, the resolution of dynamic variables has been delegated to a
new helper function. This has the additional benefit that the loop
labels are no longer required, making things a bit cleaner.

7c2fdefcd8 fix(tvix/eval): pop with stack immediately after processing body
Instead of tying the popping of the with stack to scope depth, clean
up the stack immediately after processing a with body.

The previous behaviour was actually incorrect, as it would leave
things on the with-stack longer than they were supposed to be there.
This could lead to false positive resolutions in some situations
involving closures.

010a96e525 refactor(corp/tvixbolt): adapt for tvix-eval's upcoming observer API
Instead of the previous hack which painfully threaded through
a structure that the disassembler could write to, Tvix's evaluator is
gaining a new "Observer" API which lets library clients observe
compilation output (and, soon!, runtime tracing).

This adapts tvixbolt to use this observer interface (with the default
`DisassemblingObserver`) to populate the `bytecode` field of its
output.

This is purely a mechanical change, no functionality is impacted.

This is the code backing the small site currently deployed at

This relies on a newer version of Tvix than is available in depot and
a bunch of other stuff that isn't public yet, so for now no build file
is provided as this is heavily work-in-progress.

f88d248f48 feat(tvix/eval): implement runtime closure construction (OpClosure)
Implements the final bit of logic remaining for wiring up closures,
which is the runtime construction of closure objects.

When encountering an OpClosure, the VM walks through the bytecode
collecting all the upvalue location operands (see commit introducing
the OpCode::Data* variants for details) and stores the runtime values
in the new closures upvalue vector.

After that, the handling of the closure itself becomes functionally
identical to that of lambdas.

With this initial implementation of closures there are several large
optimisation potentials available, the two most notable ones are:

- Distinguish the runtime representation of lambdas and closures
  explicitly.

- Detect and handle multiple-arity functions directly in the compiler.

However, for both of these we should wait until we have appropriate
benchmarking infrastructure in place. This is because our test
implementations have shown that the complexity of either of these
changes is quite significant, and we do not yet know if they really
pay off.

69d8f17a26 feat(tvix/eval): compile creation of closure objects
Fully implements the instructions for compiling closure
objects (without runtime handling yet).

Closure (and thunk) objects are created at runtime by capturing all
known upvalues. To represent this, the instructions for creating them
need to have a variable number of arguments. Due to that, this commit
introduces new variants in OpCode that are not actually operations,
but data.

If the VM is implemented correctly, the instruction pointer should
never point at these. Due to this, the VM will panic if it sees a data
operand during an execution run.

3a2fcc8bc2 refactor(tvix/eval): avoid cloning in NixAttrs::update if possible
Refactors the update function to take the attribute sets by value
instead.

To facilitate this, we use an equivalent of the currently unstable
`Rc::clone_or_unwrap` in the VM when encountering attribute sets, so
that in cases where the only references to the attrs being updated are
the ones on the stack those clones are avoided completely.

This does make update() a little bit more tricky internally, as some
optimised branches can directly return the moved value, and others
need to destructure with ownership. For this reason there are now two
different match statements handling the different ownership cases.

This was fixed in upstream Nix in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4012 (though only for eval, not in

Because we run the C++ Nix tests against our test suite as well, this
also bumps our custom Nix 2.3 to a commit that includes the
cherry-picked fix from the PR above.

3d0280ec03 refactor(tvix/eval): implement clearer mechanism for globals
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.

e1147b57c7 feat(tvix/eval): introduce mechanism for defining builtins
Adds a new builtins module in which builtins can be constructed. The
functions in this module should return a correctly structured value to
be passed to the compiler's `globals`.

This is wired up all the way to the compiler with an example
`toString` builtin, available as a global. Note that this does not yet
actually behave like the real toString, which has some differences
from `Display`.

ca90c0f45a refactor(tvix/eval): handle scope poisoning & globals dynamically
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.

Builtins are represented as a Rust function pointer that accepts a
vector of arguments, which represents variable arity builtins.
