feat(tvix/eval): Give names to builtin arguments r/5268

Refactor the arguments of a Builtin to be a vec of a new BuiltinArgument
struct, which contains the old strictness boolean and also a static
`name` str - this is automatically determined via the ident for the
corresponding function argument in the proc-macro case, and passed in in
the cases where we're still manually calling Builtin::new.

Currently this name is unused, but in the future this can be used as
part of a documentation system for builtins.
