refactor(tvix/eval): improve representation of chunk/span mapping r/6066
This switches out the previous compressed representation (count of
instructions per span) with a representation where the chunk's span
list stores the index of the first operation that belongs to a span,
and finds the right span by using a binary search when looking them
up.

This improves the lookup complexity from O(n) to O(log n).

This improvement was suggested and (mostly) implemented by GPT-4. I
only fixed up some names and updated the logic for deleting
spans (which it only did not do because I didn't tell it about that).

The code was verified by producing a complex error before/after the
change and ensuring that all spans in the error match exactly.
