refactor(tvix/eval): thread dynamic upvalues through all contexts r/4657
With this change, encountering a dynamic upvalue will thread through
all contexts starting from the lowest context that has a non-empty
`with`-stack.

The additional upvalues are not actually used yet, so the effective
behaviour remains mostly the same. This is done in preparation for an
upcoming change, which will implement proper dynamic resolution for
complex cases of nested dynamic upvalues.

Yes, this whole upvalue + dynamic values thing is a little bit
mind-bending, but we would like to not give up being able to resolve a
large chunk of the scoping behaviour statically.
