Warning: This is probably the biggest refactor in tvix-eval history,
so far.
This replaces all instances of trampolines and recursion during
evaluation of the VM loop with generators. A generator is an
asynchronous function that can be suspended to yield a message (in our
case, vm::generators::GeneratorRequest) and receive a
response (vm::generators::GeneratorResponsee).
The `genawaiter` crate provides an interpreter for generators that can
drive their execution and lets us move control flow between the VM and
suspended generators.
To do this, massive changes have occured basically everywhere in the
code. On a high-level:
1. The VM is now organised around a frame stack. A frame is either a
call frame (execution of Tvix bytecode) or a generator frame (a
running or suspended generator).
The VM has an outer loop that pops a frame off the frame stack, and
then enters an inner loop either driving the execution of the
bytecode or the execution of a generator.
Both types of frames have several branches that can result in the
frame re-enqueuing itself, and enqueuing some other work (in the
form of a different frame) on top of itself. The VM will eventually
resume the frame when everything "above" it has been suspended.
In this way, the VM's new frame stack takes over much of the work
that was previously achieved by recursion.
2. All methods previously taking a VM have been refactored into async
functions that instead emit/receive generator messages for
communication with the VM.
Notably, this includes *all* builtins.
This has had some other effects:
- Some test have been removed or commented out, either because they
tested code that was mostly already dead (nix_eq) or because they
now require generator scaffolding which we do not have in place for
tests (yet).
- Because generator functions are technically async (though no async
IO is involved), we lose the ability to use much of the Rust
standard library e.g. in builtins. This has led to many algorithms
being unrolled into iterative versions instead of iterator
combinations, and things like sorting had to be implemented from scratch.
- Many call sites that previously saw a `Result<..., ErrorKind>`
bubble up now only see the result value, as the error handling is
encapsulated within the generator loop.
This reduces number of places inside of builtin implementations
where error context can be attached to calls that can fail.
Currently what we gain in this tradeoff is significantly more
detailed span information (which we still need to bubble up, this
commit does not change the error display).
We'll need to do some analysis later of how useful the errors turn
out to be and potentially introduce some methods for attaching
context to a generator frame again.
This change is very difficult to do in stages, as it is very much an
"all or nothing" change that affects huge parts of the codebase. I've
tried to isolate changes that can be isolated into the parent CLs of
this one, but this change is still quite difficult to wrap one's mind
and I'm available to discuss it and explain things to any reviewer.
Fixes: b/238, b/237, b/251 and potentially others.

We need to distinguish explicitly between the paths used for the
scanner, and the paths that populate the derivation inputs. The full
paths must be accessible from the result of the refscanner to populate
drv fields correctly.
This was previously hidden by debug changes that masked actual IO
operations with no-ops.

Creates a cache of imported literal files (e.g.
`./default-builder.sh`) which avoids shelling out to Nix for each
instance of the same file.
Note that a better way to tackle this is to create memoizable thunks
for these expressions in the compiler, but we are lacking a little bit
of infrastructure for that at the moment.

Switch out the string-scanning algorithm used in the reference scanner.
The construction of aho-corasick automata made up the vast majority of
runtime when evaluating nixpkgs previously. While the actual scanning
with a constructed automaton is relatively fast, we almost never scan
for the same set of strings twice and the cost is not worth it.
An algorithm that better matches our needs is the Wu-Manber multiple
string match algorithm, which works efficiently on *long* and *random*
strings of the *same length*, which describes store paths (up to their
hash component).
This switches the refscanner crate to a Rust implementation[0][1] of
this algorithm.
This has several implications:
1. This crate does not provide a way to scan streams. I'm not sure if
this is an inherent problem with the algorithm (probably not, but
it would need buffering). Either way, related functions and
tests (which were actually unused) have been removed.
2. All strings need to be of the same length. For this reason, we
truncate the known paths after their hash part (they are still
unique, of course).
3. Passing an empty set of matches, or a match that is shorter than
the length of a store path, causes the crate to panic. We safeguard
against this by completely skipping the refscanning if there are no
known paths (i.e. when evaluating the first derivation of an eval),
and by bailing out of scanning a string that is shorter than a
store path.
On the upside, this reduces overall runtime to less 1/5 of what it was
before when evaluating `pkgs.stdenv.drvPath`.
[0]: Frankly, it's a random, research-grade MIT-licensed
crate that I found on Github:
https://github.com/jneem/wu-manber
[1]: We probably want to rewrite or at least fork the above crate, and
add things like a three-byte wide scanner. Evaluating large
portions of nixpkgs can easily lead to more than 65k derivations
being scanned for.

Instead of being called with `md5`, `sha1`, `sha256` or `sha512`,
`fetchurl.nix` (from corepkgs / `<nix`) can also be called with a `hash`
attribute, being an SRI hash.
In that case, `builtin.derivation` is called with `outputHashAlgo` being
an empty string, and `outputHash` being an SRI hash string.
In other cases, an SRI hash is passed as outputHash, but outputHashAlgo
is set too.
Nix does modify these values in (single, fixed) output specification it
serializes to ATerm, but keeps it unharmed in `env`.
Move this into a construct_output_hash helper function, that can be
tested better in isolation.

This uses the actual upstream Nix code for

`builtins.derivation` as a wrapper around `builtins.derivationStrict`.
We're doing it this way to ensure that our thunking logic is correct.
An initial Rust-native rewrite (see e.g. cl/7363) is pretty difficult
to debug while there are still other issues to root out, but
eventually we might want to turn this into native code.

Previously the construction of globals (a compiler-only concept) and
builtins (a (now) user-facing API) was intermingled between multiple
different modules, and kind of difficult to understand.
The complexity of this had grown in large part due to the
implementation of `builtins.import`, which required the notorious
"knot-tying" trick using Rc::new_cyclic (see cl/7097) for constructing
the set of globals.
As part of the new `Evaluation` API users should have the ability to
bring their own builtins, and control explicitly whether or not impure
builtins are available (regardless of whether they're compiled in or
not).
To streamline the construction and allow the new API features to work,
this commit restructures things by making these changes:
1. The `tvix_eval::builtins` module is now only responsible for
exporting sets of builtins. It no longer has any knowledge of
whether or not certain sets (e.g. only pure, or pure+impure) are
enabled, and it has no control over which builtins are globally
available (this is now handled in the compiler).
2. The compiler module is now responsible for both constructing the
final attribute set of builtins from the set of builtins supplied
by a user, as well as for populating its globals (that is
identifiers which are available at the top-level scope).
3. The `Evaluation` API now carries a `builtins` field which is
populated with the pure builtins by default, and can be extended by
users.
4. The `import` feature has been moved into the compiler, as a
special case. In general, builtins no longer have the ability to
reference the "fix point" of the globals set.
This should not change any functionality, and in fact preserves minor
differences between Tvix/Nix that we already had (such as
`builtins.builtins` not existing).

The tvix-eval project is independent from any *uses* of the evaluator,
such as the tvix-repl.
This functionality has been split out into a separate "tvix-cli"
crate. Note that this doesn't have to mean that this CLI crate is the
"final" CLI crate for tvix, the point of this is not "getting the CLI
structure right" but rather "getting the evaluator structure right".
This reshuffling is part of restructuring the way that functionality
like store communication is injected into language evaluation.
Note that at this commit the new CLI crate is not at feature-parity.
