feat(tvix/eval): make NixList::clone() cheap r/5301
When we start unrecursivifying (sp?) things, Rust's borrow checker
is going to be a headache; its magic only works when you use the CPU
stack as your call stack.

Fixing the borrow checker issues usually involves adding lots of
`clone()`s.  Right now `NixList` is the only variant of `Value` that
isn't cheap to clone() -- all the others are either a wrapper around
Rc or else are of bounded size.

Note that this requires dropping the `DerefMut for NixList` instance
and using `Vec<Value>` instead in those situations.
