fix(tvix/eval): remove incorrect imports when coercing r/7218
The default behavior of string coercion in C++ Nix is to weakly coerce
and import to store if necessary. There is a flag to make it strongly
coerce (coerceMore) and a flag that controls whether path values have
the corresponding file/directory imported into the store before
returning the (store) path as a string (copyToStore). We need to
implement our equivalent to the copyToStore (import_paths) flag for the
benefit of weak coercions that don't import into the store (dirOf,
baseNameOf, readFile, ...) and strong coercions that don't import into
the store (toString).

This makes coerce_to_string as well as CoercionKind weirder and more
versatile, but prevents us from reimplementing parts of the coercion
logic constantly as can be seen in the case of baseNameOf.

Note that it is not possible to test this properly in //tvix/eval tests
due to the lack of an appropriate EvalIO implementation being available.
Tests should be added to //tvix/glue down the line.
