The codebase contains a lot of complexity and odd roundabout handling for shadowing globals. I'm pretty sure none of this is necessary, and all of it disappears if you simply make the globals part of the ordinary identifier resolution chain, with their own scope up above the root scope. Then the ordinary shadowing routines do the right thing, and no special cases or new terminology are required. This commit does that. Note by tazjin: This commit was originally abandoned when Adam decided not to take away reviewer bandwidth for this at the time (eval was still in a much earlier stage). As we've recently done some significant refactoring of globals initialisation this came up again, and it seems we can easily cover the use-cases of the poison tracking in other ways now, so I've rebased, updated and resurrected the CL.

Tvix
For more information about Tvix, contact one of the project owners. We are interested in people who would like to help us review designs, brainstorm and describe requirements that we may not yet have considered.
Rust projects
Some parts of Tvix are written in Rust. To simplify the dependency
management on the Nix side of these builds, we use crate2nix in a
single Rust workspace in //tvix to maintain the Nix build
configuration.
When making changes to Cargo dependency configuration in any of the
Rust projects under //tvix, be sure to run
mg run //tvix:crate2nixGenerate -- in //tvix itself and commit the changes
to the generated Cargo.nix file.
License structure
All code implemented for Tvix is licensed under the GPL-3.0, with the exception of the protocol buffer definitions used for communication between services which are available under a more permissive license (MIT).
The idea behind this structure is that any direct usage of our code (e.g. linking to it, embedding the evaluator, etc.) will fall under the terms of the GPL3, but users are free to implement their own components speaking these protocols under the terms of the MIT license.
