feat(tvix/eval): compile `with` expression r/4551
Adds an additional structure to the compiler's scope to track the
runtime "with stack", i.e. the stack of values through which
identifiers should be dynamically resolved within a with-scope.

When encountering a `with` expression, the value from which the
bindings should be resolved is pushed onto the stack and tracked by
the compiler in the "with stack", as well as with a "phantom value"
which indicates that the stack contains an additional slot which is
not available to users via identifiers.

Runtime handling of this is not yet implemented.
