refactor(tvix/eval): more efficiently intersect attributes r/6930
builtins.intersectAttrs is used a _lot_ in nixpkgs eval, for whatever
reason. We previously had a very inefficient implementation that would
allocate for each comparison. It stuck out like a sore thumb in perf
analysis.

This moves to a custom algorithm with two iterators, one for the left
and one for the right side, advancing them along the (borrowed) map
keys until a match is found and allocation is required.

I've not made any effort to reduce the verbosity of this code, I don't
think it's worth it.

On my machine this reduces the mean runtime of evaluating
`nixpkgs.emacs.outPath` by ~8%.
