8e9bfc1ca7 fix(tvix/eval): more faithfully serialise ast::Literal
The previous serialisation format kind of lost the information about
what AST node we're dealing with (e.g. `1234` would serialise to an
AST with a literal `1234`).

That's great for pretty-printing the _code_, but we explicitly want to
serialise how rnix-parser parses something.

To that end, literals are now instead serialised into a structure like
all the other ones (`kind: literal` and appropriate value fields).

0abc66ad91 feat(tvix/eval): add an AST pretty-printing module
This implements serde::Serialize for the rnix AST through a wrapper
type, and exposes a function for serialising the AST into
a (pretty-printed JSON) string representation.

This can be used to debug issues with the AST, and to display an AST
reprsentation in tools like tvixbolt.

Serialize is implemented manually because we don't own any of the
structs and the way to traverse them is not easily derived
automatically, and this is quite verbose. We might be able to condense
it a little bit, but at the same time it's also fairly straightforward.
