fix(tvix/eval): detect cycles when printing infinite values r/5178
Using the same method as in Thunk::deep_force, detect cycles when
printing values by maintaining a set of already seen thunks.

With this, display of infinite values matches that of Nix:

    > nix-instantiate --eval --strict -E 'let as = { x = 123; y = as; }; in as'
    { x = 123; y = { x = 123; y = <CYCLE>; }; }

    > tvix-eval -E 'let as = { x = 123; y = as; }; in as'
    => { x = 123; y = { x = 123; y = <CYCLE>; }; } :: set
