Unary operator applications are thunked which can easily be observed by
nix-instantiate --eval -E '[ (!true) (-1) ]'
Unfortunately, there are few simple expressions where this makes a
difference in the end result. Thus it only cropped up when using nixpkgs
for cross compilation: Here we would compile the expression
!(stdenv.cc.isGNU or false)
to assemble python3Minimal's passthru attribute set (at least this seems
to be the most likely explanation from the backtraces I've studied).
This means that an unthunked
<stdenv.cc.isGNU or false>
OpForce
OpInvert
would be performed in order to assemble this attribute set, causing
stdenv.cc to be evaluated too early, causing an infinite recursion.
Resolves b/273.
It seems that having a test suite that doesn't use --strict and relies
on thunks rendered as <CODE> would be beneficial for catching such
issues. I've not been able to find a test case with --strict that
demonstrates the problem fixed in this CL.

We already evaluate this the same as Nix does, so worth adding it into
CI.

This introduces a function that can be instantiated with an attribute
path to instantiate, as well as the expected path (normally interpolated
with the nix evaluator).
Check both pkgs.stdenv.drvPath and pkgs.stdenv.outPath to match.

The tvix-eval project is independent from any *uses* of the evaluator,
such as the tvix-repl.
This functionality has been split out into a separate "tvix-cli"
crate. Note that this doesn't have to mean that this CLI crate is the
"final" CLI crate for tvix, the point of this is not "getting the CLI
structure right" but rather "getting the evaluator structure right".
This reshuffling is part of restructuring the way that functionality
like store communication is injected into language evaluation.
Note that at this commit the new CLI crate is not at feature-parity.
