fix(tvix/eval): set up root stack slot in closures & thunks r/4759

Similar to setting up a phantom slot when compiling the root value of
a file, closures and thunks need to have a phantom stack slot for the
root of the expression yielded by their thunk to make all accounting
work correctly.

The tricky thing here is that closures & thunks *escape* their inner
lambda context (that's the point!), so the functions emitting them
need to know both the *inner* slot (to resolve everything correctly
while compiling the slot) and the *outer* slot (to correctly emit
instructions for closing over upvalues).
