refactor(tvix/eval): Box the strings in CatchableErrorKind r/7497

These strings are allocated once and never changed, so they don't need
the additional overhead of a capacity given by String - instead, we can
use Box<str> and save on 16 bytes for each of these, *and* for each
Value since this is currently the largest Value variant.
