b530e496a5 feat(tvix/eval): initial implementation of builtins.import
This adds an initial working version of builtins.import which
encapsulates the entire functionality of `import` within the builtin
itself, without requiring any changes in the compiler or VM.

The key insight that enables this is that we can simply return a Thunk
from `import` that is constructed from the output of running the
compiler and - ta-da! - no other component needs to know about it.

A couple of notes:

* builtins.import needs to capture variables like the SourceCode
  structure. This means it can not currently be constructed the same
  way as other builtins and has special handling, which leaks out to
  `eval.rs`. I have postponed dealing with that until we have this
  working a bit more.

* the `globals` are not yet passed through

* the error representation for the new variants is absolutely not done
  yet, we probably want to switch to something that supports
  cause-chaining now (like miette)

* there is no mechanism for emitting warnings at runtime; we need to
  add that

89dc26cece feat(tvix/eval): implement builtins.currentTime
Returns time since epoch in seconds.

This has a slight behaviour difference from Nix, in that we don't pin
the time between REPL entries (Nix pins it for the program lifetime),
but this is probably inconsequential as long as it is pinned during an
evaluation.

f0179c92d3 refactor(tvix/eval): allow impure Value builtins
Allows impure builtins that have a different shape than a Rust
function pointer; specifically this is required for
builtins.currentTime which does not work in WASM.

9e16d70809 feat(tvix/eval): Sketch out impure builtins
Sketch out a new set of "impure" builtins, which supplement the existing
set of "pure" builtins but are gated behind a feature flag, which allows
them to be omitted by crates depending on tvix-eval that only want pure
evaluation, such as tvixbolt.
