Vincent Ambo 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.

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.
