feat(tvix/eval): teach builtins.toXML context r/8163

XmlEmitter gains a NixContext field, and `write_typed_value` extends it
with all context elements present in the passed value.

Once all serialization is done, a into_context() function returns the
collected context, so we can construct a NixString with context.

Tests for this live in tvix-glue, as we use builtins.derivation, which
is not present in the tvix-eval crate.

Fixes b/398.
